Denture Case study

"This picture shows me with my old dentures (a full upper and lower set). I not only look gormless but the dentures actually twisted my face. I was a very unhappy man with my looks. Not the old age part. I was often told I looked miserable - again my dentures caused this effect.

On looking at old photos of myself and thinking in those days my smile was my greatest asset, I made the decision to get something done before it was too late. After seeing an advertisement in the local paper, I made an appointment to see Mr Lee Butler the Clinical Dental Technician at D.D.C. UK Ltd. in Winchester who agreed my dentures did not become me.

He then set about using one of my photos as a guide to my requirements.

On receiving my new dentures I was very pleased. My wife and I at first thought my smile was wider than the new teeth. However after less than a week my face had adjusted itself to match my smile and get rid of that twist. I also noticed I was getting back happy eyes.

Another story that seems strange but very true. My youngest Grandson, aged 3, has always been very wary of me. If I asked for a kiss or cuddle he always shied away. Although it hurt me I had come to just accept it. The very first time I met him after getting my new dentures, he greeted me with open arms, a kiss and nattered away to me. I was much moved. Later his mother took him to her car to go. My grandson did not need to be asked or told to give me a goodbye kiss, he just made a bee-line for me with his lips perked to give me that much missed love.
