Dentures at Sherwood Smiles

Missing teeth can affect your ability to eat, speak and smile with confidence. At Sherwood Smiles, we provide custom dentures as a reliable and cost-effective solution to restore both function and appearance. Whether you are replacing several missing teeth or need a partial denture, our team focuses on creating comfortable, natural-looking results tailored to your individual needs.

What Are Dentures?

Dentures are custom-made, removable appliances used to replace missing teeth and restore your smile’s appearance and function. At Sherwood Smiles, we can guide you through suitable options and ensure a comfortable, natural-looking result.

Benefits of Dentures

Dentures can improve your ability to eat and speak while supporting facial structure and appearance. They are designed for a comfortable fit and natural look, and can be a more cost-effective option for replacing missing teeth, particularly in partial or more complex cases.

Our Denture Process

Consultation and Assessment
We begin with a detailed assessment of your oral health to determine the most suitable denture option. Digital scans are taken to create a precise, comfortable fit—no traditional impressions required.

Tooth Extraction (If Needed)
If extractions are required, we ensure a smooth and comfortable experience using local anaesthesia, with sedation options available if needed.

Creating Your Custom Dentures
Your dentures are carefully designed using advanced digital technology and crafted by a trusted dental lab. Materials and shades are selected to achieve a natural-looking result.

Fitting and Adjustments
Once ready, we ensure your dentures fit comfortably and function well, making any necessary adjustments. We’ll also guide you on how to wear and care for them.

Follow-Up Care
Ongoing check-ups help maintain the fit, comfort and function of your dentures over time, with adjustments made as needed.

Caring for Your Dentures

Proper care helps extend the lifespan of your dentures and supports your overall oral health:

  • Daily Cleaning: Gently brush your dentures with a soft toothbrush and non-abrasive cleanser to remove plaque and food debris.
  • Soak Overnight: Keep your dentures in water or a denture solution overnight to maintain their shape.
  • Handle with Care: Dentures can be delicate—avoid dropping or bending them.
  • Oral Hygiene: Clean your gums, tongue and any remaining teeth each day.
  • Regular Check-Ups: Visit us periodically to ensure your dentures remain comfortable and function well.

Adjusting to Life with Dentures

It’s normal to have a short adjustment period when you first start wearing dentures:

  • Speaking and Eating: With a little practice, speaking and eating will feel more natural over time.
  • Mild Discomfort: Some initial soreness or irritation can occur but usually settles as your mouth adapts.
  • Ongoing Support: If your dentures feel uncomfortable or loose, let us know—we’re here to help with adjustments.
