Denture care: Overview

Understanding denture care as a professional

Teeth form an intimate part of how we look and feel, and for 12% of Australians who rely on either a full or partial denture, dentures do too.¹

Patients face challenges at all stages of the denture journey, and may be required to adapt to a number of different prostheses: partial dentures, immediate dentures following tooth extraction and full dentures.^2,3

Each patient’s experience will be different. Individual medical, physical and psychological factors, such as oral anatomy, and how the patient adapts to their prosthesis, can affect how their dentures perform.^2–6
