At Charlton Road Dental we offer Bespoke dentures crafted to restore confidence, function, and prosthodontic privacy.
"As a dentist passionate about precision and aesthetics. I would like to remove the stigma of replacement teeth by removing the descriptive term ‘Dentures’. Dentures, still seem to be associated with negative smile confidence and an unnatural smile. I believe dentures can be transformative, not just functional, but life-enhancing.
I will describe all types of removable tooth replacement options as ‘prostheses’ as we are no longer making ‘dentures, we are experienced in the art of constructing beautiful, natural prostheses that maintain our patients privacy.
Dr Katie Ernst is a dentist with a special interest in fixed and removable prosthodontics, known for crafting bespoke, natural-looking prostheses to replace your teeth that are as beautiful as they are functional.
Her work centers around the idea of prosthodontic privacy - the principle that prostheses should look and feel so natural that no one else knows they're there.
Through years of advanced training, mentorship, and clinical experience, Katie has developed a deeply personal, aesthetic, and functional approach to care. She works with patients to restore more than just teeth, she restores confidence, identity, and quality of life.
Prosthodontic privacy means that patients can wear their prostheses without them being visible, obvious, or uncomfortable. Dr Ernst designs everyone to:
“Prosthetic tooth replacement should restore what was lost, not draw attention to it.”
Dr Ernst’s approach is shaped by a strong academic and practical foundation:
Katie completed a postgraduate Master’s programme focused on aesthetic and functional fixed and removable prosthodontics.
As a member of this respected study group founded by Dr John Besford, Katie is part of a community of clinicians who share a passion for truly natural, high-quality prosthetic work.
Dr Ernst integrates Scandinavian design philosophy into her prostheses, a well-established method focused on:
The result? Comfortable, cleanable, functional, and discreet prostheses designed to work in harmony with your mouth, not against it.
Each denture is:
These prostheses aren’t simply functional, they are a return to the patient’s own natural smile, designed to restore confidence and comfort.
Dr Ernst works exclusively with some of the most skilled denture technicians in the country, chosen not just for their technical excellence but for sharing her philosophy of natural aesthetics, anatomical harmony, and patient dignity.
These partnerships ensure:
Great prostheses are not manufactured. They are co-created by a clinician and technician who care equally.
We take pride in crafting prostheses that:
We believe removable tooth replacement options can be jewellery for the mouth - functional, beautiful, and confidence-boosting.
Patients who choose Dr Katie Ernst benefit from a journey that is:
To quote a recent patient, ‘These aren’t dentures, these are like nothing I’ve seen as dentures before, they are almost like jewellery.’
