Why Shaw patients choose us for dentures

Shaw and Crompton patients often tell us the drive is worth it for a practice where they feel genuinely looked after. Our dentists welcome people from Shaw for routine care, for cosmetic treatments like whitening and bonding, and for bigger plans such as implants and dentures.

There is no substitute for your own teeth, and making dentures that perform as well as natural teeth is one of the hardest challenges in dentistry. Good dentures can genuinely improve your quality of life, and we aim to go beyond your expectations.

Your dentures are made over several appointments. We take accurate measurements of your mouth and build your new teeth in wax first. You (and your family, if you like) can see them in your mouth and ask for changes until everyone is happy. Once the wax is turned into the final material it is hard to change, so we spend our time getting this stage right.

Getting here from Shaw

The practice is about 6 miles from Shaw, around fifteen minutes by car through Newhey and Milnrow. Denture appointments are spread over a few weeks, so being close to home helps.

Why choose flexible dentures

  • Comfortable

    The nylon base adapts to the shape and movement of your mouth when you speak, eat or yawn.

  • Discreet

    No metal clasps on show, and the thin base lets your natural gum colour show through.

  • Secure

    They snap securely and comfortably into place around your existing teeth.

  • Kind to your teeth

    No need to adjust your natural teeth to make room for clasps.

  • Light and strong

    Lightweight, strong, and matched to your natural teeth and gums.

What happens

Three calm steps

  1. Step 1: Measure

    We take accurate impressions and records of your mouth and bite.

  2. Step 2: Try in wax

    You see your new teeth in wax, and we adjust them until you are happy.

  3. Step 3: Fit and review

    We fit your finished dentures, then see you again to fine-tune the comfort.

Implants to steady loose dentures

If your existing dentures move about, dental implants can act as anchors that lock them in place, making them feel more comfortable, secure and effective.
