What is a full denture?
A complete denture replaces all teeth in an upper or lower arch. It rests on the gums and underlying ridge and is shaped to restore teeth, bite and facial support.

Full or complete dentures replace all missing teeth in an upper arch, a lower arch, or both. At Al Mairaj Dental & Cosmetics (AMDC) in DHA Phase 3, Lahore, the plan starts with your gums, jaw ridges, bite, facial support, speech and chewing needs. If teeth still need removal, healing and timing are considered before the final denture plan is confirmed.

Complete Dentures in Lahore: Fit, Eating, Speech & Care
The main questions are usually whether a full denture will stay in place, how long it takes to adapt, whether eating and speaking improve, and what happens if the mouth changes after extractions.
How much do full dentures cost at AMDC?
We confirm the current total after examination. Cost can vary depending on whether you need an upper denture, a lower denture or both, the lab work required, healing after extractions and whether any other dental treatment is needed first.
Can I eat normally with new dentures?
Eating usually requires an adaptation period. Softer foods, smaller bites and chewing on both sides can help while you learn the new bite. Persistent instability or pain should be reviewed rather than accepted as normal.
Will full dentures affect speech?
Speech can sound different at first. The tongue and lips need time to adapt to the new tooth position and denture borders. Ongoing clicking, looseness or difficulty should be checked.
Should I sleep with full dentures?
Usually they should be removed at night unless your dentist advises otherwise. This gives oral tissues a rest and allows the denture and mouth to be cleaned.
Can dentures become loose over time?
Yes. Gums and jaw ridges change over time, particularly after extractions. A denture may later need adjustment, a reline, repair or replacement depending on the cause.
Who may need complete dentures
When Are Full Dentures Considered?
Complete dentures are one of several ways to restore an arch when all natural teeth are already missing or when the remaining teeth cannot predictably be maintained. The final decision follows examination and discussion of alternatives.
01
All teeth in an arch are missing
A complete denture can restore an upper arch, lower arch or both when no natural teeth remain in that arch.
02
Remaining teeth may need removal
If teeth are severely compromised, the dentist first determines whether they can be saved and discusses extraction timing, healing and replacement planning.
03
You want a removable option
Traditional complete dentures do not require implant surgery. They rely on the oral tissues, ridge form, saliva, muscle control and accurate fit.
04
Your existing denture no longer fits
A denture that rocks, drops, repeatedly causes ulcers, looks worn or changes the bite should be assessed for adjustment, reline, repair or replacement.

What Affects Full Denture Cost?
We confirm the price after an examination. The total depends on whether you need an upper denture, a lower denture or both, the records and lab work required, and whether any treatment is needed before the denture is made.
Your quote should be clear: if extractions, healing, repair of an old denture or another treatment is needed, it should be explained separately before you proceed.
One arch or both?The cost can differ depending on whether you need an upper denture, a lower denture or both.
Are extractions still healing?The mouth changes after tooth removal, which can affect timing, fit and later adjustment.
Is this a new denture or replacement?An existing denture can provide useful information about bite, tooth position, comfort problems and what you want changed.
Are implants being considered?If you are considering implant-supported teeth, that needs a separate assessment and treatment plan.

Full Dentures Before & After
This video shows a real full-denture case treated at AMDC. Fit, comfort, speech and chewing can feel different for every patient.
Individual results vary. A complete denture is planned around the gums, jaw ridges, bite and facial support, and every patient adapts differently.
Complete denture process
How Are Full Dentures Made and Fitted?
The exact sequence depends on whether teeth are already missing, whether extractions are required and how the tissues are healing. More than one clinical and laboratory stage is usually needed.
01
Examination and treatment planning
The dentist checks the gums, jaw ridges, any remaining teeth, bite, jaw relationship, oral tissues and your previous denture history.
02
Impressions or scans and records
Accurate records are taken so the denture base can be designed around the shape of the mouth. Additional jaw and bite records may be needed.
03
Bite and tooth-position planning
Vertical height, jaw relation, tooth position, smile support and shade are considered rather than choosing teeth in isolation.
04
Try-in when appropriate
A trial stage may be used to check tooth position, appearance and bite before the denture is finished, depending on your treatment plan.
05
Fit, bite check and adjustments
The finished denture is checked for seating, pressure areas and bite. New dentures can require follow-up adjustments as the mouth adapts.
Living with complete dentures
Cleaning, Eating, Sleeping & Long-Term Fit
Good denture care includes both the appliance and the tissues underneath it. A denture can look clean but still cause problems if plaque, pressure areas or fit changes are ignored.
Clean daily with a suitable denture method
Remove food debris and biofilm every day. Use a non-abrasive cleaning method recommended for the denture material and rinse thoroughly before reinserting it.
Clean the mouth too
Brush the gums, tongue and any remaining natural teeth. If natural teeth remain in the opposite arch, they still require fluoride toothpaste and regular dental care.
Usually remove dentures at night
Unless specifically advised otherwise, overnight removal allows the tissues to rest and supports cleaning and safe storage.
Build up eating gradually
Begin with manageable textures and smaller pieces. Learning to control a complete denture is different from chewing with natural teeth.
Do not self-adjust sore areas
Do not file a denture or use household repair materials. Recurrent ulcers, pressure or instability should be checked professionally.
Review changes in fit
Jaw ridges can remodel and shrink over time. A denture that once fitted well can later need adjustment, reline or replacement.

Full Dentures vs Dental Implants / All-on-4
Traditional full dentures are removable and rest on oral tissues. Implant-based full-arch treatment uses implants in the jaw to support a fixed or implant-retained restoration. Surgery, bone, health, cost and maintenance requirements differ.
Not sure which option suits you? The right choice depends on your mouth, general health, budget and whether you prefer a removable or implant-supported option.

Full denture FAQs
Complete Denture FAQs
General guidance cannot determine your fit or treatment plan. The mouth, jaw ridges and healing stage need to be assessed directly.
Ask on WhatsAppWhat is the difference between a full denture and a partial denture?
A full or complete denture replaces all teeth in an upper or lower arch. A partial denture replaces one or more missing teeth while some natural teeth remain. See AMDC's Partial Dentures guide.
How long does it take to get used to full dentures?
There is no fixed adaptation time. New dentures can initially feel bulky and can affect eating and speech. Control usually improves with practice, but persistent pain, ulcers, looseness or clicking should be assessed.
Can full dentures look natural?
Tooth position, shade, shape, lip support and the relationship between the upper and lower teeth can all influence appearance. The goal is a balanced result suited to the individual rather than one standard tooth shape or shade.
Can I sleep in complete dentures?
Usually dentures should be removed at night unless your dentist specifically advises otherwise. Night-time removal helps oral tissues rest and gives time for cleaning.
How should I clean full dentures?
Remove and clean them daily with a non-abrasive denture-cleaning method suitable for the material. Also clean the tongue, gums and any remaining natural teeth. Avoid abrasive toothpaste on the denture unless your dentist or manufacturer specifically recommends it.
Why is my old full denture loose now?
Jaw ridges and gums can change over time. Wear of the denture, changes in bite and tissue remodeling can reduce stability. The solution may be adjustment, reline, repair or replacement depending on the cause.
Can a full denture be made immediately after extractions?
Immediate dentures can be used in selected cases, but the mouth changes substantially during healing and later adjustment, reline or replacement may be needed. The timing must be planned clinically.
Are dental implants better than full dentures?
They are different treatment options. Traditional dentures are removable and avoid implant surgery; implant-based options require surgical and restorative planning and may provide greater support for suitable patients. The better option depends on your health, bone, goals, maintenance needs and budget.
