Dentures at Core Dental Epping product guide

Losing teeth affects more than your smile - it affects how you eat, how you speak, and how you feel about yourself. At Core Dental Epping, our on-site Dental Prosthetist provides custom-fitted dentures designed to restore your confidence and function.

On-Site Dental Prosthetist

Ahmed Saoud, our experienced Dental Prosthetist, provides on-site denture services at Epping. With over 20 years in the industry and a background as both a dental technician and prosthetist, Ahmed delivers dentures that fit comfortably and look natural.

Having an on-site prosthetist means your dentures are designed, fitted, and adjusted without needing to visit a separate clinic. Your dentist and prosthetist work together to ensure your dentures complement your overall oral health and any remaining natural teeth.

Full Dentures

Full dentures replace all teeth in the upper arch, lower arch, or both. We offer:

• Conventional full dentures - fitted once the gums have fully healed following extractions (typically 8-12 weeks)
• Immediate dentures - placed on the same day as your extractions so you are never without teeth; adjusted as your gums heal

Full dentures are crafted from high-quality materials selected to match your natural skin tone and facial structure. Multiple appointments are included to ensure the best possible fit and comfort.

Partial Dentures

If you have some remaining natural teeth, a partial denture fills the gaps. Options include:

• Acrylic partial dentures - affordable and adjustable as your mouth changes
• Cobalt-chrome (metal framework) dentures - thinner, stronger, and more durable; the premium option for long-term partial denture wearers
• Flexible resin dentures - a comfortable, interim option

Implant-Retained Dentures

For patients who want the security of a denture that does not move, implant-retained dentures anchor your denture to dental implants for superior stability. This option virtually eliminates denture slippage and allows you to eat more freely.

Core Dental Epping is open until 6:00 pm Monday to Friday, making denture adjustment appointments convenient for working patients. The practice is approximately 10 minutes walk from Epping Station.

Caring for Your Dentures

Your prosthetist will provide detailed aftercare instructions. Key points include:

• Remove and rinse dentures after every meal
• Brush dentures daily with a soft denture brush and non-abrasive cleaner
• Soak dentures overnight in water or a denture-soaking solution
• Attend regular check-up appointments - your gums and remaining teeth still need monitoring
• Dentures typically require replacement every five to seven years as your jaw shape changes

Payright Interest-Free Payment Plans

Dentures represent a significant investment in your quality of life. Payright interest-free payment plans allow you to spread the cost over up to 30 months with no interest, making full denture treatment accessible without financial stress.

HICAPS On-Site

We have HICAPS on-site at Core Dental Epping for immediate health fund claiming at the time of your appointment.
