Why choose copy dentures?
Patients may wish to consider getting a set of copy dentures if they are experiencing discomfort or pain associated with having poorly fitting dentures. If your dentures don’t fit properly but you are happy with the shape, size and colour of your teeth then a replica can be made with a new fitting surface.
