Whether you are facing issues due to gum disease, tooth decay or injury a denture may provide a successful option that will benefit your appearance, health and function. When a set of teeth are missing, the remaining teeth generally shift into the remaining space and become crooked. It is harder to clean crooked teeth, which can lead to tooth decay and gum disease. Your ability to chew properly and speak is restored. Dentures will fill out the look of your face and prevent facial muscles from sagging, which can make you look older.

We can make you a denture or partial that will closely resemble your natural teeth and gums, to minimise a change in your appearance

Type oF Dentures

Conventional

The full removable denture is made and placed in your mouth after any remaining teeth have been removed and the tissues have healed. This can take several months.
Immediate

You will receive the removable denture on the same day, when your remaining teeth will be removed, so you don’t have to be without teeth during the healing period. We will take the measurements and make models of your jaw at a preliminary visit. You may be required to have the denture relined after you have finished the healing process to ensure a proper fit.
Partial

A partial is a removable appliance made for patients who are missing some, but not all teeth. We will design the partial denture to match your teeth and gums, and it will attach to your natural teeth with metal or plastic clasps. Your partial denture will keep your teeth from shifting, while filling in gaps that can make eating difficult to complete your smile.
Over Denture

This option provides added stability for your denture. Over time, retention on a traditional denture worsens due to bone loss and deterioration. As they rely on suction alone, they can require messy denture creams or adhesives. A root or implant supported overdenture is held in place by attachments added to the root of a remaining tooth, or to an implant. An overdenture helps preserve the health of your jaw bone and will control facial contour changes that can be caused by having no remaining teeth.

What is the average cost of dentures?

The price of dentures generally depends on the material utilised and the number of teeth that are being replaced. Dentures vary in price between $1700 and $3000.

What type of dentures are the best?

There are no “best” dentures as such. A denture needs to be custom made. Many factors are taken into account which will influence the final design. Factors include;

the number of teeth,
strength required,
sensitivity to materials,
long term goals,
comfort of fit.

Are dentures better than bad teeth?

Bad teeth are never a preferred option. Bad teeth lead to issues with comfort, health and self-confidence. Good quality dentures can be customised as per the patient’s requirements.

I want to thank Dr. Ron and the Mitcham Dental Clinic team for their continued - excellent service. As someone phobic about being in the dentist chair, I’m always amazed at the caring, gentle and understanding approach I’ve been given. Professional, modern and I highly recommend this caring dental clinic to anyone, especially if you struggle with the idea of going to the dentist. This is the place for you.

Every time I arrive to my appointment I’m welcomed with such gentle voiced sweet staff on the front desk, which I haven’t always been greated with such warm arms from other clinics ! I have seen each dentist and they all have such gentle hands and make myself feel so comfortable and welcomed as I am a very anxious patient but always get talked through procedures. Such a beautiful clean clinic , with such a family feel! Wouldn’t recommend anyone more than Mitcham Dental Clinic . Love love love going to the dentist
