Dentures replace missing teeth, improving both function and appearance. This we know. The old school perspective of dentures sitting in a glass of water overnight, is now a thing of the past.
Modern denture options available at our Melbourne clinic include flexible and snap-on dentures. These deliver enhanced comfort, fit and durability. Today’s dentures are lightweight, easy to maintain, and designed to blend seamlessly with natural gums and teeth. Immediate dentures and same-day denture repairs allow quicker solutions, providing Melbourne patients with practical, natural-looking teeth replacements customised to individual preferences and requirements.
Dentures are suitable for anyone who has lost teeth. Melbourne residents who face dental decay, injury, gum disease, or gaps from missing teeth benefit significantly from dentures. Dentures also help younger people who are facing tooth loss due to accidents or health conditions, as well as older adults.
Partial dentures effectively replace one or several missing teeth, restoring bite and preventing remaining teeth from shifting. There are also a few different kinds of dentures available now, each with a unique purpose. Complete dentures, for example, replace all teeth, which is ideal for extensive tooth loss due to severe decay or gum disease.
Immediate dentures are exactly what they sound like: they provide an instant, temporary solution after tooth removal. This is vital for preventing gaps from forming that affect speech and appearance.
Many of our Melbourne patients like the feel of flexible dentures, which offer superior comfort and adjust smoothly to their natural gum contours without irritation. Snap-on dentures are a more permanent solution. They attach to dental implants, which are fixed to your jawline, offering unmatched stability, functionality, and comfort. They eliminate the need for messy glues and adhesives, providing a secure fit that lets you eat, speak, and smile confidently. These dentures offer long-term reliability and significantly enhance daily life quality.
The average cost of dentures in Melbourne can range from $1,000 to $5,000, depending on factors such as the type of dentures chosen, materials used, and the complexity of the procedure.
Denture Type | Cost Range (AUD) |
---|---|
Basic Dentures | $1,250 – $2,500 |
Premium Dentures | $3,000 – $6,000 |
Implant Supported Dentures | $15,000 – $30,000 |
Initial Consultation
First, we'll meet you at our Melbourne CBD clinic for an initial consultation. We'll examine your teeth and gums closely to assess your oral health. This step is crucial as it helps us spot any dental issues early and ensures your dentures will perfectly match your unique needs.
Impressions and Measurements
You know what the experts always say: measure twice, cut once. Ill-fitting dentures can lead to discomfort and future dental problems. That's why the team at My Implant Dentist is meticulous at this stage of the dentures process. We'll take precise impressions and detailed measurements of your mouth so your dentures fit comfortably and naturally suit your facial structure.
Denture Crafting
Skilled technicians at our Melbourne laboratory craft your dentures using high-quality materials and with the best innovations on the market for genuinely bespoke solutions for your mouth. Each denture is custom-made to precisely fit every contour of your mouth, making it feel like a truly natural fit.
Fitting and Final Tweaks
During your appointment at our Melbourne clinic, we'll carefully fit your brand new dentures. This session includes fine-tuning and making any necessary adjustments to ensure comfort and stability. You'll test your dentures thoroughly by speaking and eating so we know they're just right. Our goal is for your dentures to fit snugly and securely, providing you with reliable, long-term comfort.
Aftercare and Support
After fitting your dentures, we don't just leave you to manage on your own. The My Implant Dentist team will schedule follow-up visits to check everything's working smoothly and provide aftercare tips and advice. If accidents happen and your dentures break, we also offer emergency denture repair services to ensure minimal disruption.
