The best dentures are the type that fits your tooth replacement needs with the least amount of intervention. This is because the Bell Hill Dental team believes your natural teeth are also your best teeth, so we will strive to take the most conservative approach that still achieves your smile goals. If we decide to recommend a denture to replace your missing teeth, we will discuss the type which is best for you.
Three Types of Dentures in Dunedin, Otago
At our Dunedin dental clinic, we offer full and partial dentures and fixed dental bridges. Dentures, whether complete or partial, are removable dental appliances.
- Full dentures replace every tooth in your upper or lower arch and often rely on suction and adhesives to stay in place.
- Partial dentures are an option if you still have some healthy teeth remaining, and those teeth provide the connectors, so your partial remains secure.
- For patients with fewer missing teeth but all in a row, and more healthy teeth remaining, we may offer a dental bridge that stays in your mouth while being secured to your natural teeth on either side of the gap. This option may also work with dental implants, which we specialise to attach to your dental bridge, providing the highest degree of stability available today.
