Dentures in Idle
Dentures are the oldest and simplest way to replace missing teeth.
With a history dating back thousands of years, replacing missing teeth with dentures has stood the test of time. Modern dentures are not like their older counterparts; they are custom-made, sleek, and designed to look and feel natural.
Today’s natural-looking dentures can help you feel confident to smile, eat, and speak comfortably. Stay with us to learn more about the benefits of dentures and how Taylored Dental Care, Idle can make you live life to the fullest again.
What are dentures?
Dentures are removable tooth replacements designed to fit your mouth and restore your smile. These sturdy acrylic and metal plates, also known as “plates,” fit snugly in your mouth and are attached to realistic-looking teeth. Are dentures removable? Yes, you can take out your dentures and massage your gums every day. The best dentures can be effortlessly used for function and appearance alike.
Modern dentures are not clunky, bulky, artificial in appearance, or easily broken.
Dentures made of advanced materials and technology, such as infused acrylic, cobalt chrome metals, and flexible nylon resin (Valplast), can be lightweight, durable, and blend in with your facial features. Whether you are missing a few teeth or require a complete set, dentures can be an option for you.
Dentures - the benefits
Dentures have come a long way since their early days. Here’s how:
Exquisitely natural
Custom-made dentures are designed to be compatible with facial structures, skin tone and personality of a person. These natural-looking dentures look just like real teeth, ensuring your smile is as confident as ever.
Custom-fit
We use advanced technology and dental materials to make dentures fit your mouth accurately for biting, chewing, and speaking comfortably. The perfect fit ensures minimal discomfort.
Improved materials
Lightweight, strong, and impermeable, stain-resistant materials make modern dentures both practical and long-lasting.
Enhanced comfort
There is better stability and less irritation, they’re ideal for all-day wear.
Easy maintenance
Modern dentures have simple aftercare and are designed for everyday use. Dentures for seniors are made more sturdy and strong, reducing the chances of breakage, dropping and slippage.
Types of dentures
Dentures in Idle have many options to meet your specific needs. These include:
- Conventional Dentures: They are custom-made dentures that take support from the gums; they are removable. They can be further divided into:
- Full dentures, also known as complete dentures, are used to replace an entire arch of teeth, either upper, lower, or both. Custom-made to fit securely, they restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
- Partial Dentures: If you only have a few missing teeth, partial dentures are an excellent solution. Your remaining teeth remain in place and your mouth regains full function as they fill the gaps.
- Acrylic Dentures: These dentures are lightweight, inexpensive, and made of high-quality acrylic material. They’re perfect for those seeking a natural-looking smile without compromising on durability.
- Metal-framed dentures: Metal-framed dentures, usually made with chrome cobalt, are highly durable and have a good fit. Even with the metal frame, they are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: We offer implant-supported dentures for those who want a more permanent solution without having to remove and clean their dentures every day. These are widely regarded as the gold standard for replacing missing teeth and can perfectly support eating, speaking, and smiling. Unlike conventional dentures that rely on suction or denture adhesives, implant-supported dentures are fixed and supported by dental implants.
Are conventional dentures right for you?
Dentures are appropriate for anyone who is missing teeth, whether it is one, several, or all of them. Here is why the modern, traditional, comfortable dentures could be for you:
- With missing teeth, you find it difficult to eat and speak.
- You want to improve your smile, as well as the contours, wrinkles, and folds around your lips and cheeks.
- Your remaining teeth are in poor condition and need to be replaced soon.
- You’re looking for a less expensive alternative to implants.

Do not worry, we will walk you through all of your options during your consultation and recommend the best solution for your situation.
Frequently asked questions
Can you have dentures with gum disease?
Yes! Modern dentures are made using specialised techniques that distribute biting forces evenly and prevent gum pressure. Thus, they can be worn even if you have gum disease.
How long do dentures last?
Dentures can last 5-10 years if cared for properly. Regular check-ups at the dentist will help ensure they remain in excellent condition.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
Yes! While it may take some time to adjust, you will soon be able to eat your favourite foods again.
