People of all ages can suffer with missing teeth due to injury, accident or because of tooth decay and gum disease. If this does happen then you may require dentures for simple day-to-day tasks such as eating, drinking and speaking. They can also improve the aesthetics of the mouth and face.

When we think of dentures there is the old stereotype of them being sat in a glass of water on a bedside table or in the bathroom ready to scare you during the night. However, these are the dentures of the past and just like everything else dentures have also changed over time.

At Dublin18 Dental Care there are a whole range of different dentures to meet your needs.

The range of dentures includes;

Firstly, there are implant-retained dentures which work in combination with a dental implant. The implant is a false tooth root which is placed into the missing tooth socket and the denture is placed onto the top of the false root acting as a tooth substitute.

Full acrylic dentures are designed for those who require a new, full set of teeth and are designed to be comfortable whilst being worn. They have been devised for greater stability so that they won’t come loose like the dentures of the past.

Partial acrylic dentures are exactly the same as full acrylic dentures but are designed to replace a single or several teeth rather than a full set.
