Dentures
What options do I have to replace my missing teeth?
One of the most common dental treatments to replace missing teeth are dentures. These are removable appliances that don't require drilling of the adjacent teeth. These can be made from a variety of materials dependent on the strength needed and the costs involved. They include acrylic, cobalt chrome and duraflex (flexible) dentures.

Chrome
Basic
This is the entry level standard acrylic denture appearance with only one shade in the teeth.
Independent
This is mid range level of dentures, they have 2 different shades with translucency and body colour. They have stronger teeth as it is a entry level high acrylic denture, stronger compared to the basic denture. The aesthetics in the independent dentures is more improved than the basic denture.
Private
This is the most superior quality denture. It has 3-4 layers of shades in the teeth plus texture, gum contouring and shading to gives it a much more natural look. Acrylic dentures are ultra high impact making it the strongest materials.
