Regain Your Smile with Dentures Near Perry Vale

Dentures Perry Vale

Missing Teeth? A full, natural smile is something everyone loves, and at Perry Vale Dental, getting that great smile back is simpler than ever. Dentures have evolved significantly, and we now offer options tailored to your lifestyle. Modern dentistry can secure dentures with dental implants for enhanced stability. Consult with your Perry Vale dentist to see if this is a good option for you.

What are Dentures?

Dentures, often referred to as false teeth, are custom-designed to fit your mouth and mimic natural teeth. They are made to replace missing teeth and have traditionally been removable. However, newer techniques allow for dentures to be securely attached using dental implants. Schedule an appointment with your Perry Vale dentist to explore the best solution for you.

Immediate Dentures at Perry Vale

If you need to have some or all of your natural teeth removed, immediate dentures are a practical solution. Your Perry Vale dentist will collaborate with the clinical dental technician to provide you with an immediate denture solution.

How it Works:

An impression of your mouth is taken.
Your tooth/teeth are removed, and the denture is fitted immediately.
The healing process is reviewed during the first week.
Adjustments to your dentures are made after 3 to 6 months.
Dentures are re-lined after 6 to 12 months.
Replacing Your Dentures

To maintain support for your cheeks and lips and ensure a comfortable fit, your dentures may need replacement every eight to ten years. If your dentures are uncomfortable, worn, or broken, contact Perry Vale Dental for an appointment.

Re-lining Your Dentures

As your mouth changes shape over time, your dentures might not fit as well as they once did. If your dentures are under four years old, they can be re-lined. This simple procedure, typically done by your dentist on the same day, can restore your comfortable smile.
