For new dentures or repairs in Northampton, Cliftonville Dental on The Avenue is my first pick. It offers full, partial and implant-retained dentures, repairs cracked or loose ones, and publishes its prices (acrylic from £619, cobalt chrome from £1,197). If you need a broken denture fixed quickly at the weekend, Northampton Dental Hub opens seven days and lists repairs and additions at £175.
A denture that rubs, slips when you talk or snaps in half is more than an annoyance. It changes what you eat, how you speak and how often you smile.
I compared Northampton dental practices that publish what they offer for dentures. I looked at the types they make, their prices, how they handle repairs and relines, and how easy they are to get to. Here is where I would start, depending on what you need.
Dentures in Northampton: what each practice offers
Prices for Abington Dental, Facial Clinic and Brixworth are from their WhatClinic listings. Other prices are from each practice’s own website.
How I compared them
I looked for practices that list dentures with at least some published prices or detail. I checked the types of denture offered, the prices, whether repairs and relines are mentioned, and opening hours where shown. I have not had dentures made at any of these practices, and every figure comes from their own sites or listings in October 2026.
1. Cliftonville Dental, The Avenue
Cliftonville Dental leads this list because it covers every stage, from a first set of dentures to fixing an old one and moving up to implant-retained options.
The practice makes full dentures, partial dentures and implant-retained dentures that clip onto implants for extra security. Its fee guide lists acrylic dentures from £619 and cobalt chromium dentures from £1,197. Chrome dentures use a thin metal framework, so they are often less bulky than all-acrylic plates. The practice gives a clear written quote after the first assessment.
I liked how open it is about the process. Getting new dentures usually takes four to five appointments over several weeks: impressions, a trial fitting to check how they look and feel, then the final fit with adjustments. You also get an aftercare guide when they are fitted.
If you already wear dentures, it repairs cracked or broken ones and can reline or replace dentures that have become loose. And if you are tired of a denture moving around, it has a CT scanner on site and has placed Nobel Biocare implants since 2004, which matters if you want to move to implant-retained dentures later.
It is at 65 The Avenue, open Monday to Friday plus one Saturday a month, with inhalation and IV sedation available for nervous patients. See its page on dentures in Northampton or call 01604 604545.
Suits: first-time denture wearers who want the process explained, and anyone thinking about upgrading to implant-retained dentures.
2. Northampton Dental Hub, St Peters Square
Northampton Dental Hub publishes the most detailed denture prices I found: acrylic £950, chrome £1,150, flexible Sovay dentures £1,500 and immediate dentures £750 per arch. Repairs and additions are £175. It also prices implant-supported lower dentures. Its opening hours run seven days a week, which helps if a denture breaks on a Saturday. Suits quick repairs and people who want a flexible denture option.
3. East Park Dental, East Park Parade
East Park Dental lists acrylic dentures from £883 and cobalt chrome from £1,159, with lower prices for members (£750 and £985). It is open weekdays 8am to 5pm. Suits patients who will use the practice regularly and can benefit from a membership.
4. Abington Dental, Billing Road
Abington Dental, established for 41 years, offers NHS and private care. Its WhatClinic listing shows full dentures from £600 and metal dentures from £900. Suits families who want to stay at one practice for routine care and dentures.
5. Facial Clinic, Billing Road
Facial Clinic lists partial acrylic dentures from £350, partial chrome from £700 and full upper and lower acrylic from £600 plus the cost of the teeth. It also lists implant-retained dentures on two implants from £3,500. Suits people comparing partial denture prices.
6. Brixworth Dental Practice, Brixworth
North of the town, Brixworth Dental Practice lists dentures from £615 and full dentures from £850 on WhatClinic. Suits patients in the villages north of Northampton.
Denture repairs and relines: what to know
Dentures do not last forever. The NHS says: “Dentures can last for years if you look after them properly, but it’s important to keep seeing your dentist regularly.” Over time, your gums and jawbone change shape, which is why a once-perfect denture can start to feel loose.
That is where a reline comes in. The fitting surface is rebuilt to match your gums as they are now, often without making a whole new denture. Immediate dentures in particular often need adjusting or replacing within about a year, as the gums settle after extractions.
If your denture breaks:
- Keep every broken piece and take them all to your dentist.
- Do not try to glue it yourself. Let your dentist check it first.
- Ask whether a repair is possible or whether a new denture would fit better.
See your dentist if your denture slips, clicks when you talk, causes pain or sore spots, or looks worn.
Looking after your dentures
- Brush your dentures every morning and evening with a soft brush and soap or a denture cleaner. Normal toothpaste is too abrasive.
- Take them out at night to rest your gums, unless your dentist advises otherwise.
- Store them in water or a soaking solution so they do not dry out.
- Brush your gums, tongue and any remaining teeth too.
- Keep up regular check-ups, even with a full denture.
Frequently asked questions
How much do dentures cost in Northampton?
Private acrylic dentures start from around £600 to £950 per arch, and chrome from around £900 to £1,200. Cliftonville Dental lists acrylic from £619 and chrome from £1,197. On the NHS, dentures fall under Band 3, currently £332.10.
How long does it take to get new dentures?
Usually four to five appointments over several weeks, covering impressions, a trial fit and the final fit.
Can a broken denture be repaired?
Often, yes. Bring all the pieces to your dentist. Northampton Dental Hub lists repairs and additions at £175, and Cliftonville Dental also repairs cracked or broken dentures.
Why is my denture loose?
Your gums and jawbone change shape over time. A reline or a new denture usually fixes it, and implant-retained dentures are an option if looseness keeps coming back.
How long do dentures last?
They can last years with good care and regular check-ups, though most need relining or replacing at some point as your mouth changes.

A good denture should feel like part of you, not something you put up with.
