What is an acrylic denture?
An acrylic denture is a full or partial set of teeth set into a gum-coloured acrylic base. It is the most common kind of denture and, made well, it looks natural and lets you eat and speak with confidence.
We make ours by the conventional flask-and-pack method. It takes a little longer than the quicker pour and ball techniques some labs use, but the result is a stronger, more stable acrylic. Those faster methods have only around 80 percent of the structural integrity, and you feel the difference over the years.
The price includes the teeth, the trays, the bites, a wax try-in and two retries, so you get to see and approve the look before anything is finished. Nothing about the clinical steps is charged as an extra.
What acrylic dentures cost
Every mouth is different, so we price your dentures to your case and give you an exact figure at your free consultation. Acrylic is our most economical option, and the price includes the teeth, trays, bites, wax try-in and two retries.
No separate charge for the clinical steps. You approve the look before anything is finished.
Prices are confirmed at your free, no-obligation consultation. See our full denture cost guide for how pricing works.

From first impression to fitted
Impressions and bite
We take impressions and register how your jaws meet, so the denture is built to your mouth and your bite, not an average.
Wax try-in
You see the teeth set in wax and try them for look and feel. We refine the shade, shape and set-up until you are happy, with two retries included.
Finish and fit
Once approved, we process the denture in high-impact acrylic and John fits it himself, easing it so it sits comfortably from day one.
Made and fitted by the technician, not passed down a line
At most practices your denture is made by a lab you never meet, then fitted by someone else again. Here it is made on our own benches in Poole and fitted by John, our registered CDT, who has close to fifty years at the bench.
That is why we still use the conventional flask-and-pack method. It is more work, but it gives a stronger, more stable acrylic and a fit that has been checked by the person who built it. If something needs easing, the maker is right there to do it.
