Full dentures are worn by people who are missing all of their teeth in either the maxillary (upper jaw) or mandibular (lower jaw).

Your full dentures should look natural, feel comfortable and allow you to chew easily and speak clearly.

An immediate denture is one that is fabricated before teeth are extracted, and inserted immediately after the removal of the teeth. It can be a full denture or a partial denture. An immediate denture is made in collaboration with a dentist.

Partial dentures are designed for those who still have some of their natural teeth remaining, but who need to replace one or more missing teeth.

With Hodge Denture Clinic, your partial denture is customised to your specific requirement. Removable partial dentures restore your natural appearance and greatly improve chewing and the ability to speak clearly.

Denture teeth are bonded to an acrylic base. Clasps may be used to hold the denture in place.

An extremely thin partial denture that is lighter, stronger and takes up less room in the mouth. Chrome partial dentures are more comfortable than standard acrylic partial dentures.

Flexible base material that is extremely comfortable to wear and almost undetectable as metal clasps are not required.

Hodge Denture Clinic can help you understand the circumstances involved in ill-fitting, loose or broken dentures. Not all of these situations require a new denture; a reline or rebase may resolve your problem. Hodge Denture Clinic can offer same day services for most repairs.

Denture relines are necessary when tissue changes have occurred due to resorption or shrinkage. This can be caused by weight loss, loss of bone or teeth and simply with time.

Our denture specialists are highly experienced in dental implants and implant dentures for missing or replacing teeth.

Implant solutions are designed to replace missing teeth. Generally, they are seen as the most comfortable, secure, natural and long-term solution for replacing or missing teeth as they give much greater retention.

Your dentures are an investment and require care and attention. The fit and function of your dentures and oral tissues are an integral part of your well being.

Many people mistakenly clean their dentures with regular toothpaste, when this can be abrasive and scratch the denture surface, allowing more plaque and tar to stick to your denture. We advise people to use hand liquid soap and a soft bristle toothbrush to clean denture appliances.

For children and adults alike, when participating in sports, the protection of your teeth is imperative. Only a custom made mouthguard will guarantee the best protection from impact.

Mouthguard technology has come a long way since the “boil and bite” range from the chemist. A custom made mouthguard from Hodge Denture Clinic fits perfectly over each individual tooth, does not move in the mouth and allows you to breathe and speak easily.
