Dentures that feel
like natural teeth
Custom-made solutions from trusted dentists in Newcastle, Teesside and beyond
Dentures have come a long way, and today’s options are more comfortable, natural-looking and discreet than ever before. At Queensway Dental Clinic we craft expertly made full and partial dentures to replace missing teeth and restore both your confidence and everyday function.
Whether you are looking for your first set or a trusted dentist for dentures to refresh your current fit, our team is here to help. Every denture is designed and finished in our on-site Queensway Dental Laboratory in Billingham, for a natural, precise result.
What are dentures?
Dentures are custom-made, removable replacements for missing teeth and the surrounding gum tissue. They are designed to look and feel as natural as possible, giving you back your smile, your confidence and full function when eating and speaking.
Whether you need a few teeth for dentures or a complete set, we offer tailored solutions at Queensway Dental Clinic, with appointments available across the North East, including Newcastle.
When would someone need dentures?
If you have lost some or all of your natural teeth, dentures offer a way to improve the appearance of your smile and keep your normal eating habits. Without them, foods that need chewing can become difficult to enjoy.
Dentures also support your cheeks and lips, so your face keeps its natural shape rather than appearing sunken. They are a comfortable, effective way to replace painful or damaged teeth, and our experienced dentists will talk you through whether they are the right option for you.
Types of dentures
Partial dentures
If the surrounding teeth are not strong enough to support a dental bridge, partial dentures can be a great way to fill the gaps in your smile. They fasten to your neighbouring teeth and sit comfortably over your gums, and can be removed for cleaning or overnight.
Full dentures
Full dentures replace all of your natural teeth. They can be made for your upper or lower gum line, or both, and are held securely in place with suction or a special adhesive, while remaining simple to remove just like partial dentures.
Overdentures
If you still have some natural teeth, overdentures can be fitted over their roots. They are easy to remove and many patients find them especially comfortable.
Implant-supported dentures
Implant-supported dentures are anchored by dental implants, and are often used on the lower jaw where a secure fit is otherwise harder to achieve. The implants hold your dentures firmly in place, and you care for them just like traditional dentures. If your dentures have never felt secure or comfortable, our specialist prosthodontics service in Sunderland can help with more complex cases.
How to care for your dentures
Dentures should be cleaned daily, just like natural teeth. Take them out and brush gently with a soft-bristled or dedicated denture brush, paying close attention to the gum line. Use a specially formulated denture cleanser rather than toothpaste, which can be too abrasive, and rinse well afterwards.
While your dentures are out, gently clean your gums and any remaining natural teeth, using a soft washcloth if a brush feels uncomfortable. Remove your dentures before bed to give your gums a rest, and keep them in warm water so they do not dry out or lose their shape.
