Dentures in Applecross & Mt Pleasant
When you lose a tooth, it can affect your confidence, make chewing difficult, change your facial appearance, and keep you from smiling as much. At Mount Pleasant Dental Centre, we offer various options tailored to your needs, and dentures may be a great option for you.
These removable appliances are used to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They’re custom-made to fit each patient’s mouth, and are available in full or partial forms, depending on how many teeth you’re missing.
Types of Dentures
Partial dentures are a good option for patients who have only lost a few teeth. These custom-made dental appliances seamlessly blend with your remaining natural teeth to restore your smile and chewing function. They’re a more affordable and less invasive solution than dental implants.
Full dentures are ideal for patients who have lost all their natural teeth and require complete replacement. Crafted with precision and care, our full dentures provide a comfortable fit and a natural-looking smile.
In some cases, full dentures may be secured with dental implants. By strategically placing two or more dental implants, we enhance the stability and longevity of your dentures, giving you the confidence to eat, speak, and smile comfortably.
Things to Consider
While dentures have been successfully used for centuries, it’s important to realise they’re not perfect tooth replacements. Some potential considerations include:
Chewing Ability and Speech—dentures often require an adjustment period. It’s common to experience a temporary impairment in chewing ability and speech as your mouth adjusts to the new dental appliance. However, with patience and practice, most patients adapt within a week or more.
Longevity and Maintenance—the lifespan of dentures varies depending on individual cases. Full dentures typically last between five and ten years, while partial dentures often last even longer. Regular maintenance and periodic checkups at our practice are essential to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your dentures.
