Denture Services

There are several types of denture, and at Kevin Manners we offer full dentures, partial dentures, suction dentures, immediate or same-day dentures, and implant-retained dentures. Dentures can be made from acrylic, chrome (metal) or flexible materials, and replace anything from a single tooth to a complete set. The right type depends on how many teeth you are missing and the fit, comfort and look you want.

The best dentures are the ones made and fitted correctly for your individual mouth, which is why bespoke dentures from an experienced clinician outperform off-the-shelf options. Our premium suction and Diamond range dentures are among the most advanced available, offering a secure fit and a highly natural appearance. George Manners has been crafting high-quality dentures in his own laboratory for over 30 years, which is reflected in the comfort and finish of our work.

Choosing the right dentures comes down to how many teeth you need to replace, how secure you want them to feel, the look you are after and your budget. At a free consultation we assess your mouth and talk through the options, from affordable acrylic partials to premium suction and facelift dentures. We recommend what genuinely suits you, rather than the most expensive choice.

Most dentures are made from dental acrylic, a hard-wearing material used for the gum-coloured base and often the teeth. Partial dentures may have a chrome (cobalt chromium) framework for extra strength, or a flexible nylon material such as Valplast for a clasp-free fit. Premium dentures use higher-grade teeth, individually tinted gums and more refined techniques, which is why there are different grades and price ranges.

Chrome partial dentures are among the strongest, as the metal framework is slim yet very robust and resists breaking. For full dentures, our premium ranges use durable, high-quality teeth and reinforced bases for longevity. With proper care, a well-made set of dentures can last around ten years, and we offer relines and repairs to extend their life.

For older patients and those with receding gums, comfort, a secure fit and ease of care matter most, so suction dentures and well-designed full dentures are often the best choice. Where gums have receded, a precise impression and a comfortable, supportive fit are key, and relines keep them fitting well as the mouth changes. We assess each patient individually to recommend the most comfortable and secure option.

A well-made set of dentures typically lasts around ten years with good care and regular maintenance. Over time your gums and jaw change shape, so dentures usually need relining every three to five years to keep the fit comfortable. Annual check-ups help your dentures last and protect your oral health.
