Brilliant , professional, competent & thoroughly deserved of a Top rate review. I have had a denture implant which is so comfortable & looks just stunning. The care and precision taken by Dr Faresh Desai, his wonderful team & technicians has been outstanding. Now I am having crowns & a partial denture so am qualified to leave a 5 Star plus review. I cannot recommend highly enough.

How Are Acrylic
Dentures Made?

Most often at the first visit, the dentist takes the impression of the patient’s teeth. Depending upon the type of denture the impression is taken before or after the extraction. In case of an immediate denture requirement, the impression is taken before the extraction occurs. In normal cases, the impression is taken after the teeth have been extracted.

The denture is made in the laboratory. Every acrylic denture is custom fit for the patients requirements, making it more comfortable to wear. After the first use, a number of adjustments are required to be made in the initial cast. It is easy to make adjustments and alterations in the acrylic dentures. They may be attached to the existing teeth with metallic clasps or have to stabilize themselves with the gums when there is no teeth left.

Why Choose
Acrylic Dentures?

Acrylic dentures are an easy fit as they are easy to alter. They are molded and not much effort is required to make adjustments to acrylic dentures as compared to other materials (such as metals). Acrylic dentures are much more affordable than other dentures. They are most commonly used as partial dentures.

Disadvantages

Their look may not be as natural compared to other dentures
The acrylic material is not very durable. Therefore, they may not last as long as other dentures
They change shape over a period of time. Therefore, more adjustments will be required as time passes
Their fitting is often loose. Therefore, they are not a good fit on the lower jaw – especially when there are no teeth

From the moment i entered, i was met by the lovely receptionist and staff. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. They addressed all the questions and concerns i had and were able to give me recommendations. They were completely transparent and clear about what the treatment may entail. Definately the best dentist I have ever been too! Very excited for the plan they have made for me. 10/10 :)

Taking Care of Your Acrylic Denture

The care of acrylic dentures is no different from normal oral care. You can clean it with the toothbrush and toothpaste or with specifically made cleaning agents made for the cleaning of dentures. Daily cleaning will keep them safe from building up bacteria on the surface.

They are not very strong. Therefore you need to be careful when washing them to ensure you prevent them from falling or hitting a hard surface by filling the basin with water so if they are too fall, they have a safety cushion.

Normally at night dentures are not worn. The soft tissues of your gum are not advisable to be covered all the time. Leave your dentures in water overnight. It is imperative that they stay moist at all times.

I would 100% recommend this dental practice!

When I first came to Ascent dental I was originally looking to take a completely different Route with my teeth, I met a great Dentist named Gurpritt who was so exceptionally professional. She guided me in choosing the correct treatment, and helping me figure out a plan that would suit me…

Alison Jayne

I discovered the one clinic whilst searching periodontal treatments in my area on google…I felt no pain just a small amount of discomfort, he reassured me throughout in a professional and caring manner….The caring and considerate attitude of all involved showed that they cared for my dental health past present and future. I asked about future treatments, and DR Nissen advised me according to my needs .At no point, did I feel that the costs involved were the main aim but that his genuine concern was to help me gain control of my dental health.

Currently undergoing Invisalign treatment at Ascent Dental in Solihull. My partner has also had root canal and various other treatments and we can’t praise the team highly enough! Friendly, professional and highly skilled, I actually look forward to visiting the dentist which is something I never thought I would say as I used to have a real fear of the dentist chair! The staff are amazing from the minute you walk through the door and I am extremely happy I found Ascent Dental. Thank you!

I recently went to Ascent Dental Care for a scheduled cleaning and mentioned I had chipped a tooth and wanted some other work done. Doctor Coughlin arranged for my tooth to be repaired and for my other work to be done immediately after my cleaning, despite the practice being busy at the time.

Emma Vincent

I honestly think this dentist is amazing everybody is so friendly and they are quick to get your treatment sorted after your initial consultation. I had braces fitted upper and lower and they were done so quickly they obviously know what they’re doing!! I love my braces and I’m so glad I went with ascent. I just wish I had done it years ago! My husband is having treatment also. Thanks guys!! Keep up the good work!!
