Dentures
Restore Your Smile and Your Confidence
Losing teeth can affect far more than your appearance. It changes how you eat, how you speak, and sometimes how you carry yourself in everyday life. At Artistic Touch Dentistry, we offer traditional dentures and a full range of related options to help patients in Melbourne and the surrounding communities rebuild their smiles and get back to living comfortably. Whether you’ve lost a few teeth or a full arch, our team is here to create a solution that fits your life.
Our Denture Options:
Full Dentures
Designed for patients who have lost all of their teeth on the upper arch, lower arch, or both. Custom-crafted to fit snugly over your gums, full dentures restore your ability to chew and speak with confidence. We use high-quality materials that closely mimic the look of natural teeth and gum tissue, and we take precise measurements across multiple fittings to ensure your dentures feel comfortable from day one. Full dentures also provide important facial support, helping to maintain the natural contours of your face that can otherwise change with significant tooth loss.
Removable Partial Dentures
A great option for patients who still have several healthy natural teeth remaining. These appliances fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and are anchored to adjacent teeth with discreet clasps. Beyond restoring your smile, partials help prevent neighboring teeth from gradually shifting out of position. We design each partial to blend with your existing teeth in terms of color, shape, and size, so the result looks natural rather than obvious.
Hybrid Prosthesis
We offer multiple options, including our All-On-Four and All-On-Six solutions, combine the stability of dental implants with the full coverage of a denture. These are fixed appliances, meaning they do not come in and out the way traditional dentures do. Patients who want a more permanent, implant-supported solution often prefer this route. Hybrid prostheses are especially well-suited for patients with varying degrees of bone loss, as they typically require less bone grafting than individual implant restorations.
Implant-Retained Dentures
A middle ground between traditional removable dentures and a fully fixed hybrid. Using strategically placed implants as anchors, these dentures snap securely into place rather than relying on suction or adhesive. The result is significantly improved stability and chewing function, along with greater peace of mind throughout your day.
AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR DENTURES?
Dentures are a practical solution for a wide range of patients.
If you are an adult who has experienced tooth loss due to decay, gum disease, injury, or age-related changes, you are often a strong candidate. If you are missing multiple teeth and want a cost-effective, reliable way to restore function and appearance, dentures are worth discussing with our team. During your consultation, we will review your oral health, jawbone density, and goals to recommend the option that makes the most sense for you.
