Specialist Denture Service for Care Homes

Denture problems are one of the most common dental issues affecting care home residents. Ill-fitting dentures cause pain, difficulty eating, weight loss, and a significant reduction in quality of life. Our mobile dental team visits care homes across Leeds and Yorkshire to provide comprehensive denture services — from new full and partial dentures to relines, repairs, and replacements — all without residents needing to leave the home.

We understand the unique challenges of providing dental care in a care home setting. Our team is experienced in working with residents who have dementia, limited mobility, communication difficulties, and complex medical histories.

Denture Services We Provide

New full dentures: Complete upper and/or lower dentures for residents who have lost all their natural teeth. We take impressions on-site and manage the entire process through to fitting.

New partial dentures: For residents who still have some natural teeth, partial dentures fill the gaps and restore function and appearance.

Denture relines: Over time, the shape of the jaw changes and dentures become loose. A reline adds new material to the fitting surface, restoring a snug, comfortable fit without the cost of new dentures.

Denture repairs: Cracked, chipped, or broken dentures can often be repaired on-site or with a quick laboratory turnaround.

Named dentures: We can arrange for residents’ names to be embedded in their dentures — particularly useful in care home settings where dentures can sometimes be mixed up.

How It Works for Care Home Managers

Step 1: Contact us by phone or email to discuss your residents’ denture needs. We can see individual residents or arrange a clinic day for multiple residents.

Step 2: We visit the care home, assess each resident, take impressions, and discuss treatment options with the resident and/or their family.

Step 3: We return for a try-in appointment where the resident can see and test the dentures before they’re finalised.

Step 4: Final fitting and any adjustments. We provide full aftercare instructions to residents and staff.

The entire process typically requires 3-4 visits over 2-3 weeks, all at the care home. We provide full documentation for CQC compliance and can liaise directly with residents’ families regarding consent and payment.
