Restore Your Smile: Dental Dentures & Plates at Botany South Dental

A comfortable, removable solution for missing teeth. Custom-fitted in Flat Bush.

Is a Denture Right for You?

A Denture (commonly known as a “Plate”) is a removable dental appliance designed to replace one, several, or all of your missing teeth. You might consider a denture if:

Missing Teeth: You have gaps that make you self-conscious when smiling or speaking.
Difficulty Chewing: Certain foods have become “off-limits” because you lack the biting surface to process them.
Sunken Facial Appearance: Missing teeth can cause the muscles in your face to sag; a denture provides the internal support needed to maintain your natural profile.
Shifting Teeth: Your remaining natural teeth are starting to tilt or move into the empty spaces.
Budget-Friendly Restoration: You are looking for a reliable, cost-effective alternative to dental implants or permanent bridges.

Types of Dentures: Plastic vs. Metal

Acrylic (Plastic) Dentures

Best For
Patients needing a cost-effective solution or an "immediate" denture while gums heal.
Benefits
Lightweight and easy to adjust or add teeth to later if more natural teeth are lost.

Cobalt Chrome (Metal) Dentures

Best For
Patients looking for a long-term, high-strength, and slim-profile fit.
Benefits
These are much thinner and less bulky than plastic plates. They conduct heat better (so you can feel the temperature of your food) and are generally more stable and secure.

Why Choose Removable Dentures?

While some prefer permanent fixtures, many patients at our Flat Bush clinic choose dentures for their ease of maintenance:

Simple Cleaning: Because they are removable, you can thoroughly clean both the appliance and your remaining natural teeth with ease.
Non-Invasive: Unlike implants, getting a denture usually requires no surgery.
Adaptable: We can design “Partial Dentures” to fill specific gaps or “Full Dentures” if all teeth are missing

Our principal dentist, Dr. Grace Chong, and our experienced team focus on precision and comfort. We take detailed impressions of your mouth to ensure your “plate” fits snugly against your gums, reducing the risk of sore spots or slipping.

Convenient Location: Plenty of car parking at our 2A – 302 Te Irirangi Drive clinic.
Professional Care: From your first consultation to your final fitting, we guide you through the process of adapting to your new dentures.
