Dentures

Comfortable custom work by our dental technician

A removable denture, also known as a false teeth, can be a great solution for replacing missing teeth and molars. Whether you need to replace a few teeth or the entire upper and/or lower arch, we offer tailored solutions that fit your needs.

A Perfect Solution

A removable denture, also known as a dental prosthesis or false teeth, is a convenient way to replace missing teeth and molars. You can easily take the denture out of your mouth and put it back in, making it flexible and easy to use. Whether you’re missing a few teeth or almost all of them, this type of denture helps you smile, eat, and speak with confidence again.

Why Choose a Removable Denture?

Smile with confidence again
A removable denture is custom-made to perfectly fit the shape of your mouth and match the color of your natural teeth. This makes it look as natural as possible.

Eat and speak more easily
With a well-fitting denture, you can enjoy your favorite meals and speak normally without worrying about loose teeth. This makes everyday life more enjoyable and social.

Easy to clean
Because you can remove the denture, it’s simple to clean. This helps keep plaque and bacteria away, keeping your mouth healthy.

Things to Keep in Mind

While removable dentures have many benefits, there are a few things to consider:

Adjustment period
It can take some time to get used to wearing a denture. Talking and eating may feel awkward at first.
Less stability than natural teeth
A denture doesn’t sit as firmly as your natural teeth, so some people find it difficult to eat harder foods.
Requires maintenance
The denture needs to be cleaned daily and regularly checked by your dentist or dental prosthetist.
Risk of irritation
Sometimes dentures can cause pressure spots or irritation in the mouth, especially if the fit changes.
Not permanent
Dentures wear down over time and usually need to be adjusted or replaced every few years. Jawbone shrinkage can also affect the fit.

Are you curious about your options? Ask your dentist for advice. They can refer you to our prosthetics specialist, Sander Roelofs, who is experienced in dentures and frames.

I’d prefer to always be treated by the same dentist, is that possible?

Yes, that’s possible. We aim to schedule your appointments with the same practitioner as much as possible. If you’re visiting for pain or an emergency, you may be seen by another practitioner so we can help you as quickly as possible.

Absolutely! We use a completely safe whitening method that works gradually but effectively. Feel free to ask your practitioner for more information.

How often should I visit the dentist?

How often you need to visit our practice depends on several factors, such as the health of your gums and your risk of developing cavities. Your dentist, dental hygienist, or prevention assistant will advise you based on your individual needs.

I’m anxious, how do you take that into account?

We aim for open communication, so please feel free to share what makes you feel uneasy. We can agree on a stop signal if that helps. If you prefer, we can explain what we’re going to do beforehand and talk you through each step during the treatment so you know what’s happening. Or, if it’s more comforting, we can simply chat about everyday things!

Will my treatment be covered by health insurance?

That depends on your insurance policy. We’re happy to help you with information about reimbursements, as we can check how you are insured. For major treatments, we always provide a cost estimate in advance.
