Denture additions involve adding new teeth to an existing denture to replace those that have been recently lost. The process begins with taking measurements and matching the new teeth to your denture’s colour and shape.
In many cases, clasps or extensions are added to the denture base to secure the new teeth and provide additional stability. Our in-house laboratory can complete these additions quickly, making the process convenient and straightforward. Reach out to let us know how we can help.
Of course! Most dentures can be added to if further teeth are lost. The new teeth are carefully matched in shade and shape to the existing denture to maintain a natural appearance.
Additions to partial dentures also help prevent shifting of other teeth, keeping them in proper alignment. An experienced dental prosthetist will assess the structure of your current denture and determine the best way to integrate the new teeth securely and comfortably.
The lifespan of denture additions largely depends on the quality of materials used and the care provided to maintain the denture. Additions are typically made from the same highly durable materials your denture is made of. Which are designed to handle the same daily wear and tear as the original denture, making them resilient to routine activities like chewing and speaking. However, even the most robust additions can experience natural wear over time.
Regular check-ups with your Dental Prosthetist play a crucial role in identifying any early signs of wear or fit issues, allowing for timely adjustments or repairs that can significantly extend the life of your denture additions. Following a good oral hygiene routine, including proper cleaning of both your mouth and denture, further enhances longevity by preventing build-up or stains that accumulate and effect the fit of your denture. By combining diligent care with periodic professional maintenance, you can ensure your denture and any additions remain functional, comfortable, and durable for as long as possible.
