Dentures
Having missing teeth can make eating and speaking difficult and can even make you feel less confident.
Dentures are one of the simplest and most affordable ways we can help you get your beautiful smile back.
What are dentures?
Dentures are removable appliances that usually consist of artificial teeth connected to a pink plastic base.
What are they made of?
Acrylic
Pink plastic material that blends in with your gums for a natural look. For an affordable and functional denture that still looks pleasant, acrylic is the material to choose.
Cobalt Chromium
This type of denture will still feature pink acrylic on the side that is visible when you smile. However, the back of the denture will be made of a thin piece of metal which makes it more comfortable and durable.
Flexible Dentures
As the name suggests, this new material can flex and bend to fit your mouth as you eat, speak and move. Instead of traditional metal hooks, these dentures feature aesthetic hooks that blend in seamlessly with your gums for a natural-looking smile!
Pain Free Dentistry
For many, dental procedures have always been associated with pain. Pain is one of the main reasons why many patients avoid going to the dentist. At Advanced Dental, our dental experts are equipped to provide a pain-free experience with various anaesthetic options.
- Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas)
Nitrous oxide is administered through a custom nosepiece to produce a calming effect, reducing fear and anxiety, enabling patients to better tolerate injections or other potentially uncomfortable procedures. The effects wear off almost instantly once the procedure is done.
- Local Anaesthesia
Local anaesthetic is administered via an injectable to impart a numbing effect that lasts for up to 60 minutes. It is injected into the part of the mouth that requires treatment. Patients won't experience any sedation or altered consciousness from local anaesthesia.
- IV Sedation
For procedures longer or more complicated procedures, IV (Intra-venous) sedation is used to induce a state of deeper relaxation. It is carried out by a certified anaesthetist who will monitor the patient throughout the duration of the procedure.
- General Anaesthesia
General anaesthesia is administered via an IV drip and it affects the entire body and produces a state of unconsciousness. This is used for lengthy, extensive oral surgeries that might cause more pain than local anaesthesia can address.
What can I expect from denture treatment?
In general, the denture treatment takes 1 to 6 weeks (approximately 2 to 4 visits) to complete. The actual duration is dependent on the severity of the problem. If you are thinking of having dentures made, please call any of our clinics across Singapore to arrange a consultation with one of our dentists.
01.
First Consultation
A mould of your teeth will be taken. We will also let you select your preferred tooth shade for the denture to match your existing teeth. These records will be sent to a laboratory, which will design and produce a denture prototype that fits you.
02.
Second Visit
Your dentist may take a more detailed mould of your teeth and check your bite. This will ensure that your dentures have a comfortable and secure fit and are able to function well.
03.
Third Visit
You will be required to ‘test’ the prototype denture to see if any adjustments must be made. Once you are happy with the aesthetics, alignment and fit, the prototype will be sent back to the lab, for the final denture to be made.
04.
Upon Completion
Once we have received the finished product from the lab, we can issue it to you. Finally, you can return home with a beautifully restored smile.
