What happens at a BPS denture fitting appointment?
BPS follows the same broad journey as a conventional denture, with more structured measurement at each stage.
If you're considering BPS Precision Dentures, it helps to know what's actually different about the process, appointment by appointment.
Consultation and assessment
This starts the same way as any denture consultation - Paul reviews your history and assesses your gums and jaw - but with BPS, closer attention is paid from the outset to how your jaw moves, not just its resting shape.
Impressions and bite registration
BPS uses more detailed measurement of your bite and jaw movement than a standard denture process, following the system's specific protocols. This extra precision at the start is what supports a more refined result later.
Try-in
As with any denture, you see and approve the design in wax form before it's finalised - checking shape, shade, and how the bite feels - with BPS placing extra emphasis on function, not just appearance.
Final fitting
Your finished BPS denture is fitted with the same attention to bite function that ran through the earlier stages, aiming for a result that holds its comfort and performance well over time.
What to expect overall
The process takes a similar number of appointments to a conventional denture, but each one involves more detailed measurement. Paul will give you a realistic timeline and cost at your first consultation.
