Dentures have a bad write-up because they are usually featured in films sitting in a glass next to an old person in bed; however, the reality is that modern dentures are a really impressive piece of dental kit and they can make a massive difference to your quality of life. Dentures are not just for older people; they can be used to treat much younger people and they have a range of benefits for your oral health and your general wellbeing.

At Dublin18 Dental Care near Monkstown we offer the finest modern dentures and a full repair service to ensure that your dentures are in good condition and make sure that you are comfortable and pain-free.

Denture repairs

Dentures are durable and hard-wearing, but they can be damaged; if you bite down on something very hard, you are involved in an accident or you drop your denture by mistake, the denture may break.

Over the course of time, you may also find that your denture starts to feel a little loose; this is because the shape of the mouth is constantly changing. Loose dentures are problematic because they may slip when you are eating and they can irritate the gums, creating sore spots, which can be painful, especially when you eat.

If you have problems with your denture, we are happy to help and can repair or replace broken or ill-fitting dentures.

We advise all our patients to attend regular checks; when you visit the practice we will check the condition of your denture and the fit and address any problems.
