Repairs & Relines
Repairs
Accidents happen, and a damaged denture can be inconvenient, uncomfortable or embarassing. Whether your denture has cracked, broken in half, or popped a tooth off it, we offer denture repairs right here in Queenstown.
In many cases, same-day repairs can be completed within just a few hours, helping you get back to your normal routine as quickly as possible.
Relines
Dentures become loose when the jawbone and gums naturally shrink over time, once natural teeth are gone. As this bone loss and gum tissue recession occurs, the exact shape of your mouth changes, creating a gap between your mouth and the denture. During these changes dentures can gradually become loose, affecting their comfort, fit, and stability.
A denture reline restores the fit of your denture by adding new material to the surface that sits against your gums. This helps improve comfort, retention, and overall function.
To maintain the best possible fit, we generally recommend having your denture relined every few years.
We offer same-day denture relines Mondays to Thursdays. You’ll need to visit us early in the morning so we can take new impressions of your gums. Your denture is then left with us for the day and is usually ready for collection later that afternoon.
Ultrasonic Cleaning
Even with regular home care, dentures can accumulate staining, plaque, and tartar over time, particularly if you’re not using the optimal cleaning products.
Our ultrasonic denture cleaning service helps restore the appearance of your dentures by using a specialised cleaning solution and ultrasonic technology to remove stubborn build-up from hard-to-reach areas.
This service typically takes around one hour and can help keep your dentures looking and feeling their best.
