Dentures Shepshed
Made to fit. Designed to feel like you again.
Dentures are a reliable and affordable way to replace missing teeth. Whether you have lost a few or all of your natural teeth, we offer full and partial dentures that look realistic and feel as comfortable as possible – so you can get back to living your life.
A personal approach to dentures
Getting dentures is not just about replacing teeth – it is about helping you feel like yourself again. We take time to understand what matters to you: how they fit, how they look, how natural they feel.
Our dentures are made using quality materials and carefully shaped to suit your face, bite, and speech. We also offer follow-up adjustments, because small changes can make a big difference.

Types of dentures we offer
We offer several denture options depending on how many teeth are missing, your lifestyle, and how you want your smile to look and feel:
- Full dentures – Replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Held in place by suction or adhesive.
- Partial dentures – Replace one or several missing teeth and attach to your remaining teeth for support.
- Acrylic dentures – Affordable and easy to adjust. Great for first-time denture wearers.
- Cobalt chrome (metal) dentures – Stronger and thinner, with a more precise fit. Often more comfortable and discreet.
We will always talk you through the choices and help you decide what suits your mouth and your goals best.
Looking after your dentures
Once your new dentures are fitted, we will show you how to care for them. Just like natural teeth, dentures need cleaning every day. With the right routine and a little time to get used to them, they will become part of your daily life – just like brushing your teeth.
- Remove and rinse after meals
- Clean daily with a denture brush and mild soap (not toothpaste)
- Soak overnight in a denture solution
- Store safely when not in use
Life with dentures, what to expect
It can take a little time, but with practice, most people can enjoy a wide range of foods again.
Your mouth may need a few days to adapt – reading out loud can help speed things up.
We will show you how to clean your dentures properly and care for your gums.
We will check your fit and comfort over time – your mouth can change, and your dentures may need adjusting.
Feel good about your smile again
You might be wondering...
Will my dentures look natural?
Yes. We take time to shape and shade your denture teeth to suit your smile and face. Modern materials look very realistic and are designed to mimic the look of natural teeth.
How long do dentures last?
With proper care, dentures typically last 5–10 years. Your gums and jaw shape can change over time, so we may recommend a reline or replacement to keep them fitting well.
Will dentures feel uncomfortable at first?
It’s normal to need a short adjustment period. Some minor soreness or extra saliva is common at first, but this settles down quickly. We’re here for tweaks if needed.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
We recommend taking them out overnight to give your gums a rest and allow proper cleaning. It helps keep both your mouth and your denture in good condition.
What if my denture feels loose?
Don’t wait – come in and let us take a look. A reline or adjustment can usually restore a snug fit. Wearing a loose denture for too long can cause soreness or rubbing.
What are my options if I can’t get on with dentures?
If dentures aren’t right for you, we can discuss alternatives like dental implants or bridges. There’s usually more than one way to restore your smile – we’ll talk it through with you.
