Dentures

Dentures at Yeronga Smile Dental

What are dentures and who are they for? Dentures are custom-made prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth. Whether you’ve lost teeth due to age, injury, or dental disease, dentures help restore your smile, improve your ability to chew and speak, and support the structure of your face. They’re a comfortable, affordable solution for many patients.

If you’re exploring tooth replacement options and searching for the best dentist in Brisbane to guide you through the process, Yeronga Smile Dental offers experience, care, and personalised support every step of the way.

What types of dentures are available?

There are a few different types of dentures available, and the right one for you depends on how many teeth you’re replacing and your oral health:

Full dentures replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
Partial dentures replace several missing teeth and are supported by your remaining natural teeth.
Implant-retained dentures are anchored to dental implants for added stability.

We’ll assess your needs and recommend a denture option that best fits your lifestyle and long-term goals.

What is the process of getting dentures?

Here’s what you can expect at Yeronga Smile Dental:

Consultation and assessment: We examine your mouth, take impressions, and discuss your goals.
Model and fitting: A trial denture is made to check for comfort and appearance.
Final denture: Your custom denture is crafted and fitted with precision.
Adjustments and support: We ensure the fit is perfect and provide aftercare tips.

We aim for dentures that not only fit well but feel and look natural.

Will dentures affect how I speak or eat?

There may be a short adjustment period, but most people quickly adapt. Speaking and eating may feel different at first, but we’ll give you practical tips to help with the transition. With consistent wear and proper care, dentures become a normal part of everyday life.

How long do dentures last?

Most dentures last between 5 and 10 years. Over time, your gums and bone can change shape, which may affect how the denture fits. Regular check-ups help us monitor this and make adjustments as needed.

How do I care for my dentures?

Proper care helps extend the life of your dentures and protect your oral health:

Rinse and brush your dentures daily with a soft denture brush
Soak them overnight in a cleaning solution
Keep your gums and tongue clean by brushing gently
Visit us regularly to check fit and comfort

We’ll also show you how to handle your dentures safely and hygienically.

Can dentures be repaired or adjusted?

Yes. If your dentures become loose, uncomfortable, or damaged, we can make repairs or adjustments. Never try to fix them yourself, as this can cause more harm than good. We’re here to help ensure your dentures stay in great condition.

What are the alternatives to dentures?

If you’re unsure about dentures or want to explore other options, we also offer:

Dental implants
Implant-supported bridges
Partial bridges

We’ll discuss all your options clearly so you can make the right choice for your needs and budget.
