Dentures at Glenvale Dental Group, Glen Waverley
Do you need dentures perfectly tailored for your smile?
At Glenvale Dental Group, we understand the impact of missing teeth on your confidence and quality of life. Our comprehensive denture services are designed to restore your smile and improve your oral function, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence once again.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are custom-made dental appliances used to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They are removable and crafted to fit comfortably in your mouth, restoring the appearance and functionality of your smile.
Types of Dentures
Full Dentures
Used when all natural teeth are missing in either the upper or lower jaw. Full dentures consist of a complete set of artificial teeth attached to a gum-colored acrylic base.
Partial Dentures
Ideal for patients who have some natural teeth remaining. Partial dentures fill in gaps left by missing teeth and prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of place.
Implant-Supported Dentures
These dentures are anchored in place using dental implants, providing added stability and preventing bone loss in the jaw.
Our Denture Process
1. Consultation
We begin with a comprehensive dental examination to assess your oral health and discuss your goals for treatment.
2. Custom Design
Using advanced technology, we take precise measurements and impressions of your mouth to create custom-fitted dentures.
3. Trial and Adjustment
You will have several appointments to try on your dentures and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit and optimal comfort.
4. Final Placement
Once your dentures are ready, they will be securely placed in your mouth, and any final adjustments will be made to ensure proper function and aesthetics.

Top 5 Reasons Why You Need Dentures
- 1. Restore Oral Functionality Dentures enable you to chew food properly, speak clearly, and smile confidently, restoring your ability to enjoy everyday activities.
- 2. Improve Facial Appearance Missing teeth can cause facial sagging and a sunken appearance. Dentures fill out your facial structure, giving you a more youthful and vibrant look.
- 3. Prevent Shifting of Teeth Gaps left by missing teeth can cause adjacent teeth to shift out of alignment, leading to bite issues and further tooth loss. Dentures prevent this by filling in the gaps and maintaining tooth alignment.
- 4. Enhance Confidence A complete smile can significantly boost your self-esteem and confidence in social and professional settings, allowing you to interact with others without feeling self-conscious.
- 5. Support Oral Health Dentures help distribute the forces of chewing evenly across your mouth, reducing the strain on remaining teeth and preventing issues like TMJ disorders and gum disease.
