Dentures in Dagenham
Replace missing teeth and restore your smile with dentures at Becontree Dental Studio in Dagenham.
We offer full and partial dentures, including acrylic and chrome options. Whether you need your first denture or want to replace an existing one, our team will discuss suitable options for your smile, comfort and budget.
What are dentures?
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth. They can help improve the appearance of your smile and make everyday activities, such as eating and speaking, easier.
Full dentures replace all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Partial dentures replace some missing teeth while fitting around your remaining natural teeth.
Your dentist will assess your mouth, discuss your preferences and recommend suitable options.
Acrylic dentures
Acrylic dentures have a gum-coloured acrylic base supporting replacement teeth. They can replace some or all missing teeth and can often be adjusted or have teeth added if your needs change.
Chrome dentures
Chrome dentures are partial dentures with a strong metal framework. Their slim design can feel less bulky than acrylic alternatives. They use your remaining teeth for support, and your dentist will assess whether they are suitable for you.
Flexible dentures
Flexible dentures are partial dentures made from a flexible material, often with gum-coloured clasps. They may offer a discreet option for replacing missing teeth. Your dentist will explain their benefits and limitations and assess whether they suit your needs.

Denture FAQs
How long does it take to get dentures?
Dentures usually require several appointments over a number of weeks. Your dentist will explain the expected timescale at your consultation.
Will my dentures feel comfortable straight away?
New dentures can feel unfamiliar at first. Eating and speaking may take practice, and adjustments may be needed as you settle into wearing them.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
Start with soft foods cut into small pieces, then gradually introduce other foods as you become more confident. Some hard or sticky foods may remain difficult to manage.
How do I clean my dentures?
Clean them daily using a soft brush and a suitable denture cleaner. Avoid hot water and abrasive toothpaste. Follow your dentist’s advice, particularly for flexible dentures.
Should I take my dentures out at night?
Usually, dentures should be removed overnight to give your gums a rest, unless your dentist advises otherwise. Your team will explain how to store them.
Which type of denture is best for me?
This depends on your remaining teeth, gum health, preferences and budget. Your dentist will explain whether acrylic, chrome or flexible dentures are suitable for you.
