Simon on Talking Dentures
The short answer: yes and no. Temporary products and a professional reline are different things. In this video, Simon explains the limitations of home kits, what can go wrong with DIY repairs and why it’s best to get your denture checked.

Different damage. Practical solutions.
A chipped tooth, a split base or a broken clasp can often be put right. Bring your denture and any pieces so we can assess the repair.
Chipped or broken tooth
Keep any tooth or fragments in your lidded container. We can often replace or repair the affected denture tooth after checking the damage.
Cracked or split base
Bring both halves and any smaller pieces. A straightforward acrylic break can often be repaired while you wait. We’ll also check how it was fitting before it broke.
Partial denture damage
Keep the detached piece and don’t try to bend the metal back. We’ll assess the framework and explain the repair options. Metalwork may need more time.
Many common repairs can be carried out while you wait, usually in around an hour once we’ve assessed the damage. We’ll confirm the cost and timing before starting, so you know what to expect.
Different materials. Different repairs.
The material and construction of your denture influence the repair. We’ll explain whether repairing it is the best option or whether replacement would be more appropriate.
The most common type. Cracks, broken teeth and many base repairs are usually straightforward to assess and can often be repaired or relined.
For Valplast® and similar materials, repair options depend on the exact material and breakage. Some dentures may need to be remade.
Metal-based partial dentures need careful assessment. Framework or clasp repairs can require specialist techniques and may take longer.
We check both the denture and its attachments. The repair may involve the denture, its retaining components or your implant provider.
Fit and comfort matter too
Sometimes the denture hasn’t broken — the fit has changed. Natural changes in your gums and bone can make it feel loose over time.
Adding material to the fitting surface so it follows the shape of your gums more closely.
Where suitable, adding a denture tooth after another natural tooth has been lost.
Careful reshaping to improve comfort or address sore spots.
These procedures can often be carried out on the same day. We’ll confirm suitability, appointments and timing after assessment.
Your questions answered
Many straightforward repairs can be completed while you wait, often in around an hour. More complex repairs, relines or additional work may take longer. Call first; we’ll confirm timing after assessment.
It depends on the damage, materials and work needed. We’ll assess your denture and give you a price before starting.
No. The denture’s condition, material, fit and damage all matter. If a repair is unsuitable or unlikely to provide a lasting solution, we’ll discuss replacement or other options.
Don’t use household glue or try to repair it yourself. Keep the pieces and arrange a professional assessment. DIY repairs can damage the denture and make further treatment more difficult.
