Dentures

Dentures are used to replace the function and appearance of natural teeth and restore your smile. Whether you are missing one tooth or many, we can carefully design a solution that’s right for you.

At Sturminster Dental Care our dentures are durable and long-lasting, enable you to eat more foods and chew more easily, and help avoid further tooth loss.

Your dentist will work alongside a team of experienced clinical dental technicians to carefully craft bespoke, natural dentures designed for your comfort, function and longevity.

Made from the highest quality acrylic resin using next-generation digital design and production tech, Dentures from Sturminster Dental Care are the ultimate non-permanent solution to missing teeth. This master craftsmanship and premium materials ensures each set of dentures is indistinguishable from beautiful natural teeth.

We offer a range of dentures to meet your individual needs:

Full dentures

Full dentures from Sturminster Dental Care in Sturminster Newton are carefully designed for a millimetre perfect fit, ensuring a comfortable and non-slip fit for years to come. They are the recommended option for replacing a full row or arch of teeth. Our full dentures are designed to look and function just like natural teeth.

Partial dentures and overdentures

When missing teeth cause a gap in the smile, partial dentures, or overdentures, are a functional, lifelike replacement. We offer an extensive range of materials and colour options to match partial dentures to your existing teeth. They are an effective and reliable way to restore both function and aesthetics and give you your confidence back.

Implant-retained dentures

For the ultimate in comfort and convenience, ask your Sturminster Dental Care dentist about implant-retained dentures. With this solution your denture is secured in place using one or several secure titanium implants in the jaw. These securely anchoring your denture in place so you no longer have to worry about slippages, discomfort and the daily fight with adhesive.

I have used the Practice for 26 years and I have always been very impressed but I now have slight doubts that the high standards will be maintained.

Excellent service from Ian - very personal- he always makes you feel like his most important patient

As always, I feel relaxed as soon as I enter the building. The receptionist on duty always greets me with a smile...and any queries I have (ie future bookings etc) are dealt with immediately. This warm and relaxed atmosphere continues when Mr Makam appears. He greets me with a smile and ushers me into his treatment room with great courtesy, introducing his assistant politely to me. He listens carefully to any concerns I may have, and makes a careful examination of my teeth and gums and throat. He then advises me with smiling kindness on any future changes I myself might care to make...if I want my teeth to continue to be strong and healthy for another 70 odd years!! We laugh together and I leave, knowing I am in excellent hands. Thank you!

The whole team at SDC are super and I cannot fault them. They have always been professional, courteous and frIendly - making the whole dental experience as good as it can be. In view of the dental provision in this country at the moment, I am relieved to be on their books! Both my husband and daughter also attend SDC and are equally satisfied.

Brilliant support from Colin Orman fully explaining the required treatment correcting a previous problem. We have therefore requested a transfer to this dentist for our family. The treatment has clearly worked.

We are relatively new to this practice but very happy we chose them. As you enter, you feel that this is a quality dentist. The environment is very clean, well laid out, and lots of information to look at as you wait to be seen. I like the video screen giving you pictures and information about the team, how long they have been there, and their level of qualification. The receptionist staff are very welcoming as you come in, and they are full of advice. They really seem to know their stuff. Our initial dentist their was great, but we only saw him once as he was leaving to work nearer to home. But we have been told good things of our new one, so we will edit in a line or two about him after we have seen him. But we have to say that we are very impressed with our Hygienist Darren Hutchinson. He is very welcoming and friendly, and he really knows his stuff, leaving your teeth feeling polished and sparkling. When leaving Sturminster Dental Care after a treatment, you do feel satisfied with the work done. This is a top class practice. It is purely a private clinic, but they do offer good, affordable dental plans. I highly recommend this dental practice.

Everyone at the practice were lovely. Their whole attitude was reassuring, kind with no element of patronising or making you feel like you're a nuisance. My checkup identified fillings were needed but there was nothing said that panicked me. Since coming to Sturminster Dental Care i have calmed down with regards visiting the dentist for the first time in 50 years. Thank you guys..

As always, the service provided by the Practice was professional, friendly and caring. I was totally comfortable in trusting the Practice team with the extraction of my tooth. The procedure was stress free and virtually painless. After care to aid my recovery was fully explained to me and a week on my gum has fully healed. A big thank you to everyone.

Having had a wobbly wisdom tooth occur unexpectedly, I called this practice for help and feel the receptionist went above and beyond to help me. The whole team I met were happy, helpful and most of all, competent. Thankyou
