When exploring partial dentures, you may come across flexible dentures as an alternative to more conventional designs. Made from flexible materials, they can offer a different approach to replacing missing teeth. At Brick Street Dentures, we’ll take the time to understand your needs, explain the available options and help you establish whether flexible dentures may be suitable for you.
Flexible dentures are generally partial dentures made from flexible materials designed to adapt to the contours of the mouth. They can be an alternative to certain conventional partial dentures, depending on the patient’s needs and the design required.
Some people consider flexible dentures because of their material, appearance or the way they are designed. However, they aren’t suitable for every situation. Factors such as the number and position of missing teeth, the condition of your remaining teeth and the support required all influence whether this type of denture is appropriate.
At Brick Street Dentures, we’ll discuss your circumstances and explain the denture options available. Our focus is on helping you make an informed decision based on suitability, practical considerations and your preferences.
We’ll consider your oral health, remaining teeth and denture requirements before discussing whether a flexible design is appropriate.
Flexible dentures use materials that behave differently from conventional rigid acrylic designs.
They may be worth considering for some patients looking to replace missing teeth without a conventional rigid framework.
We'll discuss your missing teeth, dental history and preferences to understand what you're looking for from your denture.
We'll assess your oral health and take the necessary impressions or measurements to inform the denture design.
If a flexible denture is appropriate and available for your case, the design will be planned around your mouth and individual requirements.
Your denture is produced and fitted, with checks to assess its fit and function. We'll explain how to care for it and whether any adjustments are needed.
We’ve helped countless patients get their smile — and confidence — back in record time. Our emergency denture service has supported those going through dental trauma, public events, interviews, and everyday life with dignity and care. When time matters, our team is ready.

No. Suitability depends on factors such as your oral health, missing teeth, remaining teeth and the support needed from your denture. An assessment is required.
Comfort varies from person to person. Flexible materials feel and behave differently from acrylic, but the most appropriate option depends on your mouth, the design and your individual needs.
Follow the cleaning instructions provided by your denture team and use products suitable for the material. Avoid assuming that every cleaning product is appropriate for every type of denture.
Some flexible denture materials are marketed as unbreakable, but this refers to the denture base material and not the replacement teeth. We always recommend following good denture care practices to help keep your dentures in the best possible condition.
