Understanding Dentures
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth that help you eat, speak and smile more comfortably. They can be full or partial sets, designed to suit your mouth and facial shape while providing a natural appearance and practical daily function. Each denture is personalised to support confidence and improve comfort, making everyday activities easier.
At Polegate Dental Practice, we take impressions to create dentures with an accurate fit. Try-ins allow adjustments, and follow-up visits ensure ongoing comfort and stability. We provide guidance on care, relining and repairs to keep your dentures reliable and natural-looking for daily use.

Importance of Dentures
Restore chewing ability
Dentures enable comfortable eating again, improving nutrition and digestion while supporting confident everyday dining and speech.
Improve speech
Well-fitted dentures support natural tongue and lip movement, reducing lisps or slurring and helping with clearer, everyday communication.
Support facial structure
Dentures restore lost vertical height, improving facial contours and preventing a sunken appearance for a more natural facial look.
Customised fit
Bespoke dentures are precisely adjusted for optimal retention, comfort and confidence during everyday speech and eating.
Easy maintenance
Removable dentures are easy to clean and store, helping maintain oral hygiene and prolonging the prosthesis’s lifespan with routine care.
Cost-effective
Dentures are often more affordable than implants, offering reliable tooth replacement with predictable costs and flexible options.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Here are some common questions about dentures and their answers:
How long will my dentures stay in good condition?
With consistent care, regular cleaning, and routine dental check-ups, your dentures can remain comfortable, functional and natural-looking for many years. However, occasional adjustments, relining or replacement may be required to maintain optimal fit and performance.
Will it be difficult to speak with dentures?
Initially, speaking with new dentures may feel awkward as your tongue and lips adjust. With practice, repetition and short exercises, most patients quickly regain clear speech, pronunciation and confidence while wearing their dentures comfortably.
Can I eat all types of food with dentures?
Yes, dentures allow you to eat most foods, but initially, softer foods are recommended. Gradually, with practice and proper fit, you can enjoy a varied diet while maintaining comfort and chewing efficiency.
