Welcome to Smile On Dentures

What are dentures?

Dentures are removable appliances to replace one or more missing teeth.

They are cost-effective and non-invasive, and rest on the upper or lower jaw bones, or both.

Our dentures are manufactured right here in our very own Smile On Lab on the Central Coast, Australia from high quality materials and provide a natural appearance.

Types of dentures:

Dentures can be classified into three main types:

1. Complete Dentures:

These are used when all teeth in either the upper or lower jaw are missing. Complete dentures can be further divided into:

Conventional Dentures: Placed in the mouth after the remaining teeth are removed and the tissues have healed, which may take several months.

Immediate Dentures: Inserted immediately after the removal of the remaining teeth. Adjustments are often needed as the tissues heal and shrink.

2. Implant Retained Dentures:

An implant-supported denture is a denture attached to dental implants, providing greater stability

Due to the nature of Complete Dentures they can have some movement in them, particularly complete lower dentures. Through having implants placed into the lower jaw we are able to get a more secure denture leading to greater satisfaction for the patient.

Whilst most patients are happy with traditional dentures, some prefer the improved stability and strength achieved through implant retained dentures.

3. Partial Dentures:

These are used when some natural teeth remain. They consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-coloured plastic base, which is connected by a metal framework that holds the denture in place. Partial dentures not only fill in the spaces created by missing teeth but also prevent other teeth from changing position.
