A Personalised Approach to Dentures
No two smiles - or mouths - are the same. That’s why we take a bespoke approach to every denture we create for our patients. From your first consultation, we take time to understand:
Our aim is simple: to provide dentures that feel comfortable, look natural, and fit seamlessly into your life.
We don’t offer standard “ranges” of dentures. Every denture we provide is individually designed and handcrafted to suit you - for superior comfort, function, and appearance.
The design and fit of your dentures are overseen from start to finish by Clinical Dental Technician (CDT) Emilia Lesica, ensuring complete clinical and technical precision at every stage.

Whether you’re new to dentures or replacing an existing set, Emilia’s calm, supportive care ensures your smile is restored in a natural, harmonious way.
Absolutely amazing dentist, so non judgemental, friendly and warm. Really thorough with explanations and they really make sure you have all the information you need. They even managed to get some left over brace glue off of my teeth which has been bothering me for years! Thank you so much.
Extremely happy with my amazing new partial dentures, so natural, fitted right in and haven’t had to go back for any adjustments. Many thanks to Emilia for her understanding and patience with me as a very nervous patient.

We offer a full range of modern denture solutions, including:
| Full Dentures - from £1,250 (single) If you’ve lost all your teeth in your upper or lower jaw (or both), full dentures are a reliable solution. These are removable appliances that replace your teeth and gums. |
Flexible (Valplast) Partial Denture (single) - £1,150 Valplast dentures are made from a flexible, nylon-based material that gently adapts to your gums. Lightweight and comfortable, they contain no metal clasps and blend naturally with your gum colour. They’re a popular choice for patients seeking a discreet solution or those with metal sensitivities. |
| Acrylic Partial Dentures - from £1,150 If you still have some natural teeth, a partial denture may be suitable. It fills gaps where teeth are missing, helping maintain your bite and facial structure, and is made from durable, high-impact acrylic for easy adjustment and repair. |
Titanium Dentures (Titanium Metal Frameworks) - from £POA The gold standard for patients seeking maximum comfort, durability, and discretion. Our elegant titanium metal framework dentures are an advanced alternative to traditional cobalt-chrome dentures. They are exceptionally strong yet lightweight and hypoallergenic. |
| Skeletal Frame Partial Dentures (Cobalt Chrome/CoCr) - from £1,650 These partial dentures feature a lightweight, strong metal framework that supports the replacement teeth. Thinner and more durable than acrylic, they’re a popular choice for patients seeking greater strength, comfort, and a more precise fit |
Scandinavian-Design Titanium Frameworks - from £POA Our premium titanium dentures use a Scandinavian design, known for its clean, minimalist, and functional form. The framework is slim, lightweight, and precisely shaped to follow the natural contours of the mouth. This modern design improves comfort, supports better oral hygiene, and provides excellent stability. |
What are dentures made of? Dentures are usually made from a variety of materials, including acrylic, cobalt chrome and titanium. The prosthetic teeth are designed to look as much like natural teeth as possible, and the base is designed to sit over the gums or roof of the mouth. At The York Dental Suite, Emilia is one of the few Clinical Dental Technicians in the UK who provides titanium-based denture frameworks.
Titanium Dentures (Titanium Metal Frameworks) Our premium partial dentures are available with a titanium metal framework, an advanced alternative to traditional cobalt-chrome. Titanium is widely recognised in modern dentistry and implantology for its exceptional strength, biocompatibility, and lightweight properties- making it the gold standard for patients seeking maximum comfort and durability.
Why do I need dentures? At The York Dental Suite, we recommend replacing missing teeth wherever possible. Leaving gaps in your smile can lead to further oral health problems, not to mention reduce your smile confidence and leave you feeling self-conscious when you smile. It can also contribute to difficulty eating and speaking, which can be hard to live with. Dentures can help address these problems in a cost-effective way.
By combining the appropriate denture materials with good preventive dentistry practices, individuals can achieve a natural-looking smile, improved oral health, and long-lasting comfort with their dentures.
Are there alternative treatments available? There are several alternative treatments available when it comes to replacing missing teeth. Dental bridges and implants are both possibilities, and we’ll be sure to talk you through all your options at a consultation with one of our team members here at The York Dental Suite.
During your consultation, we’ll guide you through the available options and clearly explain which denture solution is best suited to you — and why.
If dentures aren’t the best solution, we’ll explain other options, such as dental implants or implant-retained dentures, so you can make an informed decision.
