Dentures

High-quality, lifelike prosthetic solutions for a confident and comfortable lifestyle.

Modern dentures are a world away from the “false teeth” of the past. At Coulthard General & Specialist, our clinical team creates bespoke partial and full dentures designed to fit securely and look completely natural.

We focus on restoring your ability to eat and speak clearly while providing the necessary support for your facial features, ensuring a result that is as functional as it is aesthetic.

A natural appearance tailored to you

Our team works closely with master dental technicians to ensure the size, shape, and shade of your new teeth perfectly complement your facial structure and age.

We take meticulous measurements to ensure your dentures provide the correct support for your lips and cheeks, helping to maintain a more youthful facial profile. Whether you require a full set or a partial denture to fill specific gaps, our goal is to provide a restoration that feels like a natural part of you.

  • Precision-fit acrylic
  • Hand-finished aesthetics for a natural look
  • Comprehensive bite analysis for maximum comfort
  • Stability-focused design for confident eating and speaking

Restoring function and harmony

For patients missing only a few teeth, a partial denture can prevent the remaining natural teeth from shifting out of place, protecting your bite and overall oral health. For those requiring a full restoration, we focus on the stability and suction of the denture to ensure it remains secure throughout the day.

For patients seeking the ultimate in security, we can also discuss implant-retained dentures. This advanced solution involves anchoring your denture to dental implants, eliminating the need for adhesives and providing a rock-solid foundation.

Your journey to a confident smile

Clinical assessment

We examine your gum health and any remaining teeth to determine the best type of denture for your lifestyle and clinical needs.

Impressions and try-in

We take high-definition impressions to create a “wax try-in.” This allows you to see the appearance and feel the fit of your new smile before the final dentures are handcrafted.

Final fitting and aftercare

Once your bespoke dentures are ready, we ensure a perfect fit and provide you with a comprehensive guide on how to clean and care for your new restoration.

Frequently asked questions

It is normal for new dentures to feel slightly unusual for the first week or two. It can take a couple of months to adjust to. Your speech and eating will quickly adapt as your facial muscles learn to support the new restoration. Our Stockport team is always here to provide minor adjustments if you experience any initial “sore spots.”

Yes. While we recommend starting with softer foods while you adjust, high-quality, well-fitted dentures will allow you to enjoy a varied and healthy diet. For those wanting to eat tougher foods like apples or steak with total confidence, implant-retained dentures may be a suitable upgrade.

We generally recommend removing your dentures at night to allow your gum tissues to rest and maintain good oral hygiene. We will provide you with a dedicated cleaning routine to keep your dentures fresh and plaque-free while you sleep.

Over time, dentures may become less retentive or become more unstable as your gums and jawbone changes. This means dentures may need ‘relining’ or ‘remaking’ at stages throughout.
