Brisbane Denture Treatment
Are you suffering from one or multiple missing teeth? Denture Treatment can help to restore your smile. With Dentures, you can achieve a fuller smile and regain the ability to eat, chew and speak.
Denture Treatment
Dentures are removable prosthetic teeth that replace missing teeth. Dentures can be taken out of the mouth and put back in. Dentures provide a natural-looking smile and restore the ability to eat and chew (with some limitations).
Denture Treatment can involve Full Dentures or Partial Dentures. Dentures can be made to wear in either the upper or lower jaw or both. Your Brisbane Smiles Dentist and Prosthetist will work with you to decide on the best treatment option for you.
Who Are Dentures For?
Dentures are suitable for patients with missing teeth and are after a removable treatment option. It is also a suitable treatment option when your bone health is not fit for Dental Denture Implants and you still want to have a pleasing smile without missing teeth.
Benefits of Dentures
Dentures can be an ideal solution to missing teeth. Benefits of Dentures include:
- Dentures allow you to eat and chew (limited)
- Dentures are removable and able to be cleaned by yourself
- A natural-looking smile
- Shorter treatment timeline than Denture Implants and are less costly
Types of Dentures
Our Dentures are made in our in-house Dental Laboratory, using innovative technology and the highest quality materials. The type of Denture which will best suit you will depend on your condition and budget. Our Dentist will work with you to achieve the best treatment option for you.
The different types of Dentures include:
Complete Dentures – This includes both upper and lower Dentures. This is often suited to Denture patients with full teeth clearance or those missing a significant amount of teeth.
Partial Dentures – For patients who are missing a few teeth, or have a few teeth left.
Acrylic Dentures – The Denture is acrylic with metal clasps, typically with a 5-7 year lifespan.
Chrome Dentures – A mostly metal Denture with acrylic teeth, typically with a lifespan of 10-20 years.

Alternative Options to Dentures
The two most common alternatives to Dentures are a Denture Implant and Dental Bridge. At a Consultation appointment, the Dentist will be able to assess your condition and provide suitable alternatives to Dentures.
Denture Implant
Denture Implants are ideal for those who want a permanent solution to missing teeth. Denture Implants are also suitable for those who don’t want to have the fear of the Denture falling out, or for those who require full clearance of teeth. Find out more about Denture Implants here.
Dental Bridge
A Porcelain Dental Bridge is a treatment option for a missing tooth. This treatment option requires the adjacent teeth beside a missing tooth to be used as support for the Dental Bridge. Find out more about Dental Bridges here.

Dental Dentures FAQs
How much do Dentures cost?
The Dentures cost will depend on the required treatment and materials used. The initial Denture Consultation with Brisbane Smiles costs $100. At the Brisbane Denture Consultation appointment, our Dentist will outline the costs involved and provide you with a customised Price Estimate.
How to clean Dentures?
How to clean Dentures will depend on the materials used in the Dentures. Generally, you can clean Dentures by soaking them in a Denture Cleaner and gently brushing them with a soft-bristled toothbrush. It is typically recommended to soak Dentures overnight to best maintain Oral Hygiene.
How long do Dentures last?
How long Dentures last will depend on the materials used and the quality of the Dentures. At your Brisbane Denture Consultation, the Dentist will outline the expected results and the lifespan of the Dentures. Depending on the material, Dentures can last between 5 to 20 years.
Are Dentures comfortable?
Dentures are a comfortable and natural-looking solution to missing teeth. Worn and fitted properly, high-quality Dentures should feel secure and comfortable inside the mouth.
Can you sleep with Dentures in?
To protect the mouth from bacteria and infection, it is recommended that you do not sleep with Dentures in. If you have any questions or concerns about Denture maintenance, the Dentist can discuss this with you in the Denture Consultation.
Do Dentures fall out easily?
Worn correctly, custom-fitted Dentures should not fall out easily. However, over time, Dentures may become looser if you experience bone and gum loss. If you find that your Dentures are becoming too loose, the Dentist will work with you to better secure them.
Are Implant Dentures better than regular Dentures?
Whether Implant Dentures or Dentures are best for you will depend on your oral condition. The Dentist will discuss with you your best Brisbane Denture treatment options at the Consultation appointment. Implant Dentures may be more beneficial for Denture patients with a lot of bone loss.
