What are Dentures?
Dentures are false removable teeth. They are created by our dental technician team, who will pay great care to the clinical information provided by your dentist, and create a natural-looking, strong and durable set of unique dentures just for you.
Dentures are one of the most affordable routes to a full smile.
Why Get Dentures?
At SA Smile Clinic, our dentures are special. Our dentists are incredibly detail-oriented, so you can expect your dentures to be as individual as you are.
We recommend dentures for the following reasons:
- They improve your confidence following tooth loss.
- They improve your chewing ability significantly.
- You do not require bone regeneration procedures to have them fitted.
- We can replace older dentures with a modern and well-fitting alternative.
- Your clarity of speech will improve.
Denture Process
- Evaluation
One of our experienced restorative-minded dentists will take digital photos of your smile, as well as X-rays and dental impressions. This diagnostic information is passed on to our talented dental technician, who will create, shape and shade the individual teeth that will make up your crown.
- Denture Design
The dental technician creates your dentures in the lab. Your dentures will be ready within 1-5 depending on the type of denture (full or partial).
- Denture Fitting
Your dentures are ready to collect. During your fitting appointment, your dentist will check how your teeth bite together and explain how to care for your new dentures. You are then ready to enjoy the benefits of a brand-new set of bespoke teeth.
