Smilescene & Teethscene offer a wide range of general dental treatments to both private & NHS customers alike using state of the art techniques and equipment.
The loss of your teeth can have a negative effect on your self-confidence, affect your ability to chew food and leave people with an incorrect bite.
As your teeth provide structure and support to your face and cheeks, tooth loss can result in a sagging face and make you appear much older that you are.
More commonly known as false teeth or "falsies", dentures are fitted in place of natural teeth. A full set is used to replace all your teeth and a part set is used to replace one or more missing teeth.
Dentures are custom-made using impressions (mouldings) taken from your gums. They're usually made from metal or plastic or a combination of the two and in some cases dental implants may also be used to provide suitable anchor points for the dentures..
They're removable so you can clean them, although part dentures can be brushed at the same time as your other teeth. A full set needs to be removed and soaked in a cleaning solution.
Dentures are important if you lose your natural teeth as it's difficult to chew your food, which will adversely affect your diet and may cause your facial muscles to sag.
Our customers should also be aware that the old "flat pink dentures" your grandmother or grandfater might have worn are a thing of the past. Dental advances mean that modern dentures are realistic enough to convince even the most discerning onlooker that they are viewing natural teeth and gums.
