The removable solution to replace one or multiple teeth. From simple, cost-effective acrylic to precision-attached non-rocking dentures.
Absolutely nothing like your grandmother wore
Do you cover your mouth in photos? Or are you struggling to eat food with your missing teeth?
You deserve a smile that makes you feel confident and dentures can give you the means to smile, laugh, talk and eat again.
Missing teeth can be replaced with a set of complete or partial dentures, removable plates that fill gaps in your smile. Our cosmetic dentists at Smile Stories in Bournemouth create bespoke lifelike dentures that will fit comfortably and allow you to eat and smile with complete confidence.
Dentures are the most affordable option for missing teeth, and are even more affordable with our 0% interest-free payment plans.
Do you struggle with loose dentures? With implant-retained dentures, your current or new dentures can be anchored securely using dental implants, eliminating the need for adhesives.
This solution provides the stability and confidence you need to enjoy everyday activities like eating, speaking, and smiling without worry. Whether you’re looking to improve your existing dentures or upgrade to a more secure option, we specialise in custom implant-retained solutions for a snug, comfortable fit.

After your initial consultation dentures normally take 4-6 weeks to create. There’s an awful lot that goes into the process to ensure they fit as snug as possible, and give your desired aesthetic outcome.
The general flow looks something like this:
That’s exactly what they do. If your denture is loose, dropping or moving then dental implants can be inserted to either stabilise the denture you have or as part of a new denture.
Next time you’re at your favourite restaurant you’ll be able to choose anything on the menu without needing horrid denture fixative glues.
Your dentist will explain all of this at the start to ensure you’re happy to have dentures but here’s a little information to help:
Normally, we’d advise you to wear your dentures as much as possible at the start while your mouth gets used to them and you develop muscle control to make both chewing and speech easier. Wearing new dentures is a bit like wearing new shoes. They feel weird at first but you get used to them quickly.
Importantly, you don’t ever sleep in your dentures. Your mouth needs a rest and you can get infections growing under them.
Dentures are bespoke to your mouth, and the team at Smile Stories will take several sets of impressions to ensure they fit as accurately and comfortably as possible.
Adjustments are normal after they’re made. Once they’ve been moulded perfectly to your mouth you’ll hardly realise your dentures are in your mouth.
One of the easiest ways to clean your dentures is using soapy water and a toothbrush. You can also buy denture cleaners like Steradent to stop grime build up.
Do not use abrasive toothpastes as they’ll wear down the acrylic, and whatever you do, avoid Milton and bleach or your gums will look as white as your teeth. Not a good look!
We’d normally recommend removing your dentures at night. Your gums and teeth need a break, and having the night off allows them to rest and recuperate. It also allows better cleaning and stops infections and growths under your dentures, leading to bad breath and inflammation.
Dentures may not be right for you. Your anatomy and your goals may not align and they can be difficult to wear on the rare occasion.
If you’re not suitable for dentures, then bridges or dental implants may be a better route forward.
As part of your consultation, we’ll have a good chat and ensure that you and your future dentures will be a good fir for each other.
