Types of denture repairs we offer

Simple denture repairs are used to correct broken or cracked dentures. Patients can bring their dentures to our clinic, where we’ll assess the damage and advise on whether it’s repairable, the estimated time for repair, and the associated costs. This is because we’ll need to take different approaches depending on the type of denture you have. Our simple denture repair service applies to complete, partial, metal, and acrylic dentures.

1. Denture reline

We’ll recommend a denture reline when we need to adjust the fit of your dentures.

During your appointment, we’ll take an impression of your mouth while you wear the dentures, allowing the denture technician to adjust the base to ensure a more snug and precise fit. Typically, the denture reline process is split over two appointments.

2. Denture rebase

If you’ve worn the same set of dentures for five years or more, the bony ridges of the gum might have receded, causing discomfort or misalignment.

Patients typically undergo denture rebasing to replace the base of their dentures with a new one that fits more securely on top of their gums. There is a faster turnaround for this, with the process often completed within a day.

3. Denture adjustment

With missing teeth, changes in your mouth will occur periodically, and if these changes have caused the dentures to rub or cut into your gums, you’ll need to take the denture to our clinician to trim the prosthetic and relieve the points causing pressure.

A denture adjustment repair appointment typically takes around one hour to complete.

Denture addition

If, for whatever reason, you’ve lost another tooth, we can add another tooth to your existing denture, which means you won’t need to have another one made (however, this isn’t really the case with metal dentures).

The process is fast, allowing you to have an additional tooth fitted on the same day or over two appointments.

denture relining

Denture relining information

As your jawbone continues to deplete over time, your dentures will get loose and irritate your gums.

When this happens, it won’t just be uncomfortable, but it will also be difficult for you to speak and chew. In this case, it’s time to have your dentures relined.

We can offer soft denture relining for patients with sensitive gums who are new to their dentures, or hard denture relining for patients with full dentures, who may need this service every 2-4 years to help their dentures become more comfortable.

  • Soft Denture Reline £300
  • Hard Denture Reline £220

How long will your denture repair typically take?

As we advise against wearing your denture while it’s broken, we offer fast and effective fixes to restore both your function and aesthetics.

Below, we’ve broken down the typical timelines for denture repairs:

  • Simple denture repair – 1-3 hours
  • Complex denture repair – 2-4 hours
  • Addition of teeth – 2-4 hours
  • Denture reline or rebase – 3-6 hours
  • Denture deep cleaning – 2 hours

Please bear in mind that these are typical estimations only. Once we’ve assessed the problem, you’ll be advised on the correct amount of time it will take for our prosthodontists to repair your denture.

That said, most denture repairs are carried out within an hour, often on the same day.
