Will this work for me?
Yes, the Ultimate Denture Kit has everything you need to make a partial denture. Since the false teeth are pre-formed on a wire, you can easily select the teeth you need and remove any excess. We offer both upper and lower sets of teeth for you to choose from.
Yes, the Ultimate Denture Kit has everything you need to make a full denture. The DIY process is the same whether you have teeth or not.
You may feel confused by the dental model in our video tutorial, which does have teeth. However, the purpose of that step is to make a mould of your mouth, so you can ensure that the denture will fit perfectly in your mouth – not a model's mouth. When taking a dental impression, you'd still want to make a "biting down" motion on the putty in the tray, but you don't need teeth to do so.
No, it isn't necessary to order two kits. The Ultimate Denture Kit will cover both the upper and lower mouth – simply select your dental tray size, then change the location required to "upper and lower mouth".
Unfortunately not, as our kits are designed as a solution for missing teeth. The denture sits on top of the gums, so it isn't compatible with chipped or broken teeth.
How easy is this?
Our kits are designed to be easy to use, and require no previous knowledge or experience. Every kit comes with full step-by-step guidelines, which we have included on our website along with a video tutorial.
The most challenging step is shaping the gums to be the perfect fit. However, the best part about our premium gum material is that you can reshape it as many times as you like. Don't be disappointed if the fit isn't perfect the first time – you can keep reheating and adjusting until it is.
Yes! We've uploaded a YouTube video demonstrating how to make a partial denture using the Ultimate Denture Kit.
We do not make dentures for customers – our kits empower customers to do it themselves. We do provide all of the materials needed for you to make your own dentures at home, along with step-by-step guidelines on the entire process.
How does it work?
Our kits are not intended to permanently replace professional dentures. They are designed as a temporary cosmetic solution for people who cannot access dentures or implants.
With that being said, we provide professional-grade materials with long-lasting durability. If you struggle to afford dentures, our kits may be exactly what you're looking for in the interim!
During the DIY process, you will shape the gum material to sit perfectly in your mouth. The plate (which is the part of the denture that covers the palate) creates stability and suction for the denture to stay in place. If you require extra staying power, simply apply denture adhesive.
Yes! After applying denture adhesive, you can eat and drink (within reason). Soft foods are typically fine, but we recommend avoiding hard foods, such as biting into an apple.
The gum material begins to soften when it's continuously submerged in 60+°C temperatures, which is hot enough to burn the tongue. As such, the majority of people find that it easily withstands food and drink to their preferences.
The dentures should last for years when taken care of, as the false teeth are made from acrylic resin and the gum material is made from plastic. For best results, we'd suggest brushing and cleaning the dentures every day.
The Dental Impression Kit makes it much easier to achieve your perfect fit. Many people find it difficult to shape the gum material directly in their mouth, as the material is hot and they can only go by touch (not sight). Instead, we suggest using the Dental Impression Kit to first create a model of your own gums and teeth. You can then use it to shape your denture, ensuring a precise custom fit before even trying it on.

If you're unsure about which dental tray size to choose, we suggest using height as a guideline, as it's often correlated with jaw size. Try size small if you're 5'4" or under, size medium if you're 5'5" to 5'11", or size large if you're 6'0" or taller.
Alternatively, we do offer the dental trays separately here. Some customers prefer to add an extra tray to their kit to ensure the correct size, e.g. by ordering a small kit and adding a separate medium tray.
We suggest using height as a guideline if you're unsure about which dental tray size to choose. This is because height is often correlated with jaw size.
However, this isn't a hard and fast rule that works for everyone. You may need to tailor our guidelines to your individual circumstances – for example, by sizing up if you have a larger jaw.
Yes, we offer 3 sizes of teeth – the measurements are available on our website here.
We'll include size medium teeth in your kit by default. If you'd prefer a different size, feel free to leave a note at checkout and we'll do our best to fulfill your request.
Currently, our kits include false teeth in shade A2 as standard. This is an off-white colour that looks natural for many people – please see this chart for reference.
At the moment, we don't carry other shades, but may expand our range if there's interest. If there is a specific shade you'd like to request, feel free to contact us.
You don't need to make the teeth – they will arrive pre-made and ready for use.
Unfortunately the dental putty cannot be softened again once it has set. However, we do offer additional putty separately – it's available on our website here.
