What are dentures?

Dentures are false teeth that look completely real in order to blend in and replace missing teeth. These can refer to different kinds of dentures including partial dentures, which only replace a few missing teeth, full dentures – which replace a whole row of missing teeth, and there are other options as well.

Every set of dentures is made custom to fit each client’s mouth perfectly and blend into the surrounding teeth where applicable so you get a nice, natural result that only you know about. The false teeth sit on a plate which you can remove from your mouth for cleaning and storing, and can take some getting used to at first.

They come with specific care guides but you will be able to live your life and eat normally with dentures.

What are the best dentures to get?

This entirely depends on the health and condition of your current teeth or denture set. If you only have one or two teeth missing, then partial dentures are most likely to be the most appropriate solution.

However, we will not be able to say for sure until you have had a consultation and examination. We provide these kinds of dentures in Welcome Bay for your convenience.

What Is a Partial Denture?

A partial denture is an easy to insert plate that sits in your mouth with one, two or more false teeth attached to it to fill in the gaps where missing teeth are present.

The partial denture teeth on this plate are custom moulded and designed to fit your real smile and blend in so that no one knows you are wearing partial dentures at all!

A gap in your teeth does not have to prevent you from smiling anymore, with the option of partial dentures to complete a full set of bright teeth, ready to be seen and enjoyed!

What is an immediate denture?

An immediate denture refers to dentures that are fitted at the same time as having your real teeth removed – all in the same procedure. Just like other kinds of dentures, immediate dentures are false teeth and act as a temporary solution while you wait for your permanent dentures to be completed.

This means that after your natural tooth extraction, you don’t have to shy away from other people if you’re feeling self-conscious about having missing teeth; our immediate dentures fill the gap in the interim and let you get on with life.

The Immediate Dentures Process

You will receive a free consultation with our experienced Dental Technician, Michael van Vliet. During this consultation, your denture options are discussed, prices are quoted, and the full dentures procedure and its steps will be explained to you.
When you decide that full immediate dentures are the right option for you, we will take impressions of your teeth with a non-toxic putty. These teeth impressions make identical moulds of your teeth and mouth shape, so we can then make your immediate dentures to match your existing structure. This process can take about two weeks to manufacture a high-quality full set of immediate dentures.
You take your brand new dentures with you to your Bellevue dentist, where the applicable teeth will be extracted and replaced with your custom immediate dentures. This can be your own dentist, or we can refer you to a dentist we trust in the area.

We prebook the following aftercare appointments in Bellevue. Denture aftercare is essential so we ask to see you:

  • In the first week post-extraction
  • Then in the 1st, 3rd and 6th-month post teeth extraction.

During these aftercare appointments, we will be completing temporary relines when necessary to look after the fit of your immediate dentures. As your new dentures may shift as your gums heal and shrink, and the final result may not be seen for 8-12 months. Your patience is key in this part of the process.

Once your gums have finished the healing and shrinking process, your immediate dentures will need to be permanently refitted (relined), or a new denture made to match your healed gums and dental shape. New dentures being made is the preferred option as this gives you a backup set of dentures in case something happens to your first set, such as getting lost or damaged.
