Dentures that help you reclaim your smile and confidence
Most people hope to keep their natural teeth for life - but tooth loss can happen for many reasons, including gum disease, decay, trauma or the natural ageing process. Dentures offer a reliable way to restore your smile, your bite and your sense of ease in daily life.
Whether you need a full arch replacement or just a few teeth restored, modern dentures are lighter, more natural-looking and more comfortable than ever before.
Will I need complete or partial dentures?
The right type of denture depends on how many teeth you’ve lost and the condition of your remaining teeth.
Complete dentures
A full denture replaces all teeth in an upper or lower arch. The acrylic base mimics natural gums, supporting a full set of lifelike teeth. Complete dentures are recommended when most or all natural teeth in one arch are missing.
Partial dentures
If you still have healthy natural teeth, a partial denture may be the ideal solution. These dentures fill individual gaps using a gum-coloured base and metal clasps that attach discreetly to your existing teeth for security.
During your consultation, Dr Thanki will assess your gums, bone levels and remaining teeth to determine the most suitable option.
What are dentures made of today?
Modern dentures are typically crafted using high-strength composite resin - a lightweight, durable and natural-looking material that resists breakage and maintains a realistic finish. This creates a comfortable fit and a result that blends beautifully with your natural smile.
What should I expect during my denture fitting?
Your denture journey begins with a detailed examination where your dentist assesses whether dentures are the right choice for you.
During your consultation, we will:
- Take moulds and digital scans of your gums
- Capture a 3D model of your mouth
- Evaluate the bite, gum contours and facial proportions
- Discuss whether you require extractions before fitting
If you opt for immediate dentures, we may fit a temporary set so you can adjust gradually and test comfort, shape and appearance. Your final dentures are then crafted and refined to ensure a personalised, secure fit.
How do I care for my dentures?
Caring for dentures is simple and essential for long-term comfort:
- Remove them daily for cleaning
- Brush gently with a soft-bristle brush
- Use specialist denture cleaning solutions
- Soak overnight to keep them fresh and hygienic
- Maintain regular dental check-ups to monitor fit and gum health
Removing dentures overnight helps reduce bacteria and allows the gums to rest.
How long will my dentures last?
With good care and routine reviews, dentures typically last five to eight years, though many patients enjoy them for much longer. Over time, natural changes in your gums and bite may require adjustments or replacement.
Well-fitting dentures also support facial muscles, helping you maintain a youthful, balanced appearance.

Frequently asked questions about dentures.
Are dentures noticeable?
Modern dentures are crafted from high-quality materials that mimic the colour and translucency of natural teeth. Many of our Knightsbridge patients find that friends and family can’t tell they’re wearing them.
How long do dentures last?
Most dentures last 5–8 years with good care, though this varies depending on gum changes and daily habits.
How much do dentures cost in Knightsbridge?
Fees depend on whether you need full or partial dentures and the materials used. We offer finance options, including 0% plans, to make treatment accessible.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
Yes - once you adapt, you’ll be able to enjoy most foods again. We recommend starting with softer foods and progressing gradually.
Will I need teeth extracted before getting dentures?
If extractions are necessary, your dentist will discuss the timeline. Treatment is carried out with local anaesthetic for comfort.
Should I choose full or partial dentures?
It depends on how many teeth you’re missing. We’ll guide you through the most suitable option during your consultation.
