Dental dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They are custom-made to fit your mouth and help you regain the look and function of natural teeth.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are used when all your teeth are missing. We can fit you with “conventional” dentures, which are made after your gums have healed. Another option would be “immediate” dentures, which are ready to use right after your teeth are removed.
Partial Dentures
If you still have some of your natural teeth, partial dentures could be a good option for your dentures. They fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place.

Dentist Near Me – Merrylands uses either Acrylic or Chrome or Patient’s Choice.
Acrylic Dentures are cost-effective, quick to make, and easy to adjust. They’re often used as a first-time or temporary denture, and are ideal for replacing multiple missing teeth quickly.
Chrome (Metal) Dentures are stronger, thinner, and more durable. They offer a better fit, are more comfortable, and are less bulky than acrylic. Chrome dentures are ideal for long-term use and provide greater support for chewing.
They balance function, comfort, and affordability, making them suitable for different patient needs—whether short-term or long-term solutions.
The process usually takes a few weeks, including multiple appointments to take impressions, fit trial dentures, and make adjustments before the final denture is fitted.
It’s normal to feel a bit awkward or sore initially. Your mouth needs time to adjust. Any discomfort typically fades after a few weeks, and your dentist can make minor adjustments for a better fit.
Yes, but it may take some time to get used to. Start with soft foods, chew slowly, and avoid very sticky or hard foods. With practice, most people return to eating a wide variety of foods.
With proper care, dentures can last 5 to 10 years. However, your mouth and gums may change over time, requiring relines, adjustments, or replacements.
Routine dentures are not covered by Medicare. However, some public dental services may offer them at reduced costs for eligible patients. Private health insurance with major dental can help cover the cost.

See your dentist as soon as possible. Don’t try to fix them at home with glue or DIY kits. Ill-fitting dentures can cause sores, discomfort, or infections, and professional adjustment is important.
In some cases, an immediate denture can be made before the teeth are removed and inserted at the extraction appointment. This means you do not have to wait for complete healing before having replacement teeth, but the fit will change as the gums and underlying bone heal and shrink. Adjustments, a reline or eventually a replacement denture may therefore be required. Immediate dentures need planning in advance, so they are not something that can usually be decided after the extraction has already happened. Ask the dentist whether an immediate, delayed or other replacement option best suits your case.
Yes, in selected patients implants can be used to retain or support a removable denture so it feels more secure during speaking and chewing. The number and position of implants depends on the jaw, the available bone, the type of denture and the planned attachment system. Implant-retained dentures still require cleaning, maintenance and periodic review, and not every patient is suitable for implant surgery. If a current denture is loose, the first step is an assessment because a reline, adjustment or new conventional denture may sometimes solve the problem without implants.
New dentures often need an adjustment period while the tongue, cheeks and chewing muscles adapt. It is common to notice extra saliva, changes in speech, pressure spots or difficulty with harder foods at first. Start with manageable foods, practise speaking and follow the cleaning and wearing instructions provided by the dentist. Sore areas should not simply be tolerated—small adjustments can make a significant difference to comfort. If the dentures remain loose, painful or unstable after the initial adjustment period, book a review because the fit, bite or supporting tissues may need to be checked.
