In this guide, we will take you through the journey of denture treatment, from the initial consultation to enjoying life with your new smile.

The Denture Treatment Journey:

1. Free Consultation:

The first step in denture treatment is a consultation with us. During this visit, we will evaluate your oral health, discuss your needs and goals, and determine whether dentures are the right solution for you. This initial assessment sets the stage for your personalised treatment plan.

2. Customisation and Impressions:

If dentures are the chosen treatment, the next step is taking impressions of your mouth. These impressions make sure that your dentures are custom-fitted to your unique oral anatomy. Customisation includes choosing the colour, shape, and size of your dentures, allowing you to achieve a natural and comfortable look.

Once your dentures are ready, you’ll have a fitting appointment. Advance Oral Dentures will make sure that your dentures fit comfortably. It’s common to require adjustments during the initial period as your mouth adjusts to the new appliance. Regular follow-up appointments will address any comfort issues.

6. Handling Common Issues:

Denture treatment also equips you with knowledge on how to handle common issues, such as minor repairs, loose dentures, or discomfort. Understanding how to address these concerns can help you navigate your denture journey more easily.
