When you have missing teeth a denture or a pair of dentures can be custom made to fill the gaps. They can be made to replace just one tooth, a few teeth, or all your teeth.
Your Riverdale dentist can make you dentures on the NHS or Privately. They are custom made to fit your gums so you can have the happy, confident smile you deserve.
Privately a Clinical Dental Technician may be available to make your dentures, and we can also make dentures that are secured in with dental implants.

Yes, dentures can be fitted to receded gums. However, the more receeded your gums are the less retentive your denture will be. It may be worth considering implants if you have receeded gums.
Dentures are removable and we strongly advise that you clean your gums and dentures daily.
Dentures are available under NHS treatment.
Dentures fall under Band 3 of NHS fees. For up-to-date details on Band 3 pricing, visit our
