Great service, from Abul at the reception guiding me through the treatment plan and making sure I knew how to get there, where to park etc, to Dr Skidmore and Zoe with the treatment I had. Would recommend as it was better than my regular dentist. The root canal treatment price was also more reasonable than the specialist I was first recommended to by my usual dentist.

What are partial dentures?

Partial dentures are used to replace missing teeth in the mouth when you still have some of your own teeth left. They can

be used to replace just one missing tooth or can be used to replace multiple missing teeth in any part of the mouth.

Why might I need partial Dentures?

If you have missing teeth and are looking for a quick, effective method to replace these missing teeth then a partial denture is the first answer. There are several important reasons why people choose a partial denture –

  • Cosmetic –  If you have visible gaps where teeth are missing and want to improve the appearance of your smile a partial denture can replace these missing teeth. Missing teeth may also cause your face to appear “sunken” as your cheeks fall in. A partial denture can restore this lost volume back.
  • Functional– If you struggle to chew your food because you have missing back teeth, a partial denture can replace these missing teeth and restore the bite. If you have missing teeth, it is not uncommon for teeth to move over time.
  • Cost – A partial denture represents the most cost effective way to replace teeth on a per tooth basis. If you lose other surrounding teeth in the future, these can often be added to the denture as they are lost.
  • Time – A partial denture can be made in as little as 1 day in simple cases when paying for a rush delivery on a private basis

What types of partial dentures are available?

  • Acrylic (plastic) Dentures

    Acrylic (plastic) Dentures

    Acrylic dentures are the most common denture produced

    Advantages of Acrylic Dentures

    • Easy and quick to produce, often meaning they are cheaper for patients
    • They are easier to add extra teeth to than chrome framework dentures
    • Easy to repair in case of minor damage

    Disadvantages of Acrylic Dentures

    • Thickest type of framework
    • Metal clasps to grip the teeth not particularly cosmetic
    • Years of use can affect the gums by pushing them back
  • Cobalt Chrome Dentures

    Cobalt Chrome Dentures 1
    Cobalt Chrome Dentures 2

    These dentures have a custom made framework cast from a cobalt chrome alloy before the teeth are added. They are often referred to as metal partial dentures or chrome partial dentures.

    Advantages of Chrome Dentures

    • Lightweight and precision fitting
    • Metal framework provides strength with the smallest thickness
    • Can withstand strong chewing forces
    • In certain cases a “ring seat” design can be used which doesn’t cover all the palate

    Disadvantages of Chrome Dentures

    • Takes additional time to produce the metal framework (2 weeks)
    • Metal clasps to grip the teeth not particularly cosmetic
    • More difficult to add teeth onto the denture
    • If bent outside the mouth the denture will need a full remake
    • Usually more expensive
  • Flexible Dentures

    Flexible Dentures 1
    Flexible Dentures 2

    Flexible dentures are made from a flexible nylon material.

    Advantages of Flexible Dentures

    • They can grip the teeth without using metal clasps
    • They are easier to add extra teeth to than chrome framework dentures
    • Flexibility makes insertion easy and they grip the teeth very well (excellent retention)
    • Less likely to break
    • Plastic clasps to grip the teeth for better aesthetics

    Disadvantages of Flexible Dentures

    • If they do break they are often unrepairable
    • The bite strength is reduced slightly due to flexibility
    • Years of use can affect the gums
    • Not easily adjusted if ft isn’t correct

Dentures vs Implants vs Bridges

The main difference between a denture, implant and bridge is that a denture is a removable appliance to replace missing teeth and an implant or bridge is fixed in place.

A bridge is where a false porcelain tooth is fixed in place to your natural teeth to replace the missing tooth or teeth. In many cases, the natural tooth will need some reduction to make space for the replacement tooth.

Dental implants are artificial replacements for your tooth roots that are placed within the bone of your jaw to help support an artificial tooth or appliance placed on top. Dental implants require no reduction of the surrounding teeth to replace the missing tooth.

  • Avatar James Downey ★★★★★ 2 weeks ago
    I have been using this practice now for appx 4 years. The staff and Dentists are excellent! You almost do not even feel you are going to a 'Dentist!'... Very relaxed, and extremely helpful. The receptionists are great, as are indeed the whole Team. Highly recommended!
  • Avatar Ben Lang ★★★★★ a month ago
    Started using Vallance recently as a private patient. I can say that my experience here in the couple of times that I have been has been nothing but great. The staff here are lovely and very helpful. In particular, Amy and Pauline, who have carried out my dental work, are very easy to chat to and very good at what they do. Would definitely recommend.
  • Avatar keeda mae ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    Had a root canal this morning with Issy & Natalie, they were amazing. I've never had any major dental procedures, so I was quite anxious but they did absolutely everything to alleviate any concerns that I had. Issy explained everything she was doing while she was doing it, and Natalie made sure I was comfortable and happy. These 2 are a great team, they're down to earth, friendly and professional in every way. Thanks ladies ♥️

  • Avatar Josh Williams ★★★★★ 3 months ago
    George and Natalie were very helpful and the first dentists I’ve had for a while who have been clear about problems and been able to help. Gave me lots of advice about where to go forward from the appointment and were understanding while being super helpful. Very grateful for the service I received as previous dentists around Manchester haven’t been able to help once a problem has been sourced.
  • Avatar Eliza Beddows ★★★★★ 3 months ago
    My dentists Natalie and George were absolutely amazing! I’m so scared of the dentist and they really put my mind at ease! Being 28 weeks pregnant they made sure I was supported correctly and helped me in any way possible! Again big thank you!!
