Dentures

Dr VC Bhagwan Dentures Pietermaritzburg

Do I Need Dentures?

Full or partial tooth loss, if left untreated, doesn’t just affect a person’s self-image — it can also increase the risk of developing nutritional problems and other systemic health disorders. There is a reliable and time-tested method for treating this condition: dentures. 

What are Dentures? 

Full or partial dentures consist of a gum-coloured base made of plastic resin, which fits over the remaining alveolar (bone) ridge that formerly held the teeth. The prosthetic teeth projecting from the base are designed to look and function just like your natural teeth. Dentures also help support the facial skeleton and the soft tissues of the lips and cheeks, which can help create a more youthful appearance.

At first, wearing dentures may require some getting used to in terms of talking and eating, as the dentures become “balanced” in the space formerly occupied by the teeth. But over time, the muscles, nerves and ligaments of the mouth learn to work in new ways, which allows these functions to occur normally.

What our clients have to say

My children and I have visited Dr Bhagwans surgery on numerous occasions for various treatments. The care taken in attending to us has been impeccable each time. Dr Bhagwan is gentle, soft spoken and makes you feel comfortable and assured.
The dental technologist that usually does the cleaning is also very patient and good.
Sarika the receptionist has always been friendly and most helpful. I have been to other dentists prior and certainly did not receive the warm and friendly care as I did here. I would certainly recommend Dr Bhagwan for any dental treatment required.
