Key Takeaways

  • A comprehensive guide to dentures — types available, the fitting process, daily care tips, and costs in Bangalore for complete and partial dentures.
  • Everything you need to know about dentures — from choosing the right type to daily care and costs.

Dentures remain one of the most accessible solutions for missing teeth. Modern dentures are more comfortable, natural-looking, and durable than ever. Our prosthodontics team in Bangalore creates custom dentures that fit perfectly and look natural.

Types of Dentures

Complete (Full) Dentures

Replace all teeth in one or both jaws. Made of acrylic resin with artificial teeth set in a gum-colored base.

  • Cost: ₹15,000 - ₹30,000 per arch
  • Best for: Patients who’ve lost all teeth

Partial Dentures

Replace some missing teeth while clipping onto remaining natural teeth. Can be:

  • Acrylic partial: ₹8,000 - ₹15,000
  • Cast metal partial: ₹15,000 - ₹25,000 (more durable, less bulky)
  • Flexible partial: ₹12,000 - ₹20,000 (most comfortable)

Immediate Dentures

Placed immediately after tooth extractions so you’re never without teeth during healing.

  • Cost: ₹20,000 - ₹35,000
  • Require relining as gums heal and shrink

Implant-Supported Dentures

Denture implants snap onto 2-4 implants for superior stability.

  • Cost: ₹60,000 - ₹1,50,000
  • Best combination of affordability and stability

The Denture Fitting Process

Step 1: Examination & Impressions

  • Oral examination to assess gum health
  • Treat any gum disease first
  • Precise impressions of your jaws
  • Bite registration to record jaw relationship

Step 2: Wax Try-In

  • Wax model with teeth set in place
  • Check fit, bite, and appearance
  • Adjust tooth shape, size, and shade
  • Ensure you’re happy with the look

Step 3: Final Fabrication

  • Denture processed in the dental lab
  • Gum-colored acrylic base customized
  • Teeth set in proper occlusion

Step 4: Delivery & Adjustments

  • Denture placed and checked for fit
  • Adjustments for pressure spots
  • Instructions for insertion and removal
  • Follow-up for additional adjustments

Adapting to New Dentures

First Week

  • Expect increased saliva production
  • Sore spots may develop (normal — we adjust)
  • Speech may be slightly affected
  • Start with soft foods cut into small pieces

First Month

  • Sore spots resolve with adjustments
  • Speech improves with practice
  • Chewing becomes more comfortable
  • Dentures start feeling more natural

Daily Denture Care

  • Remove and rinse after meals
  • Brush dentures daily with a denture brush
  • Soak overnight in water or denture solution
  • Clean your gums with a soft brush
  • Visit for regular check-ups every 6 months
  • Handle carefully — dentures break if dropped

When to See Your Dentist

  • Dentures feel loose or slip while eating
  • Sore spots that don’t improve
  • Bad breath despite cleaning dentures
  • Clicking sounds while speaking
  • Changes in fit (gums shrink over time, requiring relining)
