Partial & Full Dentures
Missing teeth can affect more than just your appearance. They can impact how you eat, speak, and feel day to day. Dentures (false teeth) are a proven, cost-effective way to restore your smile and improve oral function, with modern options that look natural and feel more secure than ever.
At Lumino, we provide custom-made dentures across New Zealand, including full dentures, partial dentures, and implant-supported dentures, designed to suit your mouth, lifestyle, and long-term oral health.
Dentures are removable or fixed prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth. They are no longer bulky or uncomfortable “false teeth”. Today’s dentures are lighter, more natural-looking, and can be stabilised using dental implants for improved comfort and confidence.
Dentures may be recommended if you are missing one tooth, require several false teeth, or a full arch, and they can be used as a standalone solution or alongside dental implants.
Dentures may be suitable if you:
Are missing teeth and want to restore your smile
Struggle with chewing or speaking due to gaps
Want a more affordable alternative to full dental implants
Are looking for removable or implant-retained false teeth
Dentures are not just for older adults. Many younger patients choose partial or single-tooth dentures following injury, decay, or tooth removal.
Complete dentures replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They are custom-fitted to sit comfortably against the gums and restore facial structure, bite function, and appearance.
Partial dentures are ideal if you still have some healthy natural teeth. They fill gaps using a metal or acrylic base and help prevent remaining teeth from shifting.
Implant-supported dentures are secured to dental implants, offering greater stability than traditional dentures. They reduce movement, improve chewing ability, and are a popular option for patients seeking a more secure fit.
Immediate dentures are placed on the same day as tooth extraction, so you never have to go without teeth while your gums heal.
Custom dentures are designed specifically for your facial shape, bite, and preferences, using high-quality materials for improved comfort, durability, and aesthetics.
Dentures can provide:
Improved appearance and facial support
Better speech and chewing ability
Increased confidence and comfort
Long-lasting tooth replacement with proper care
Support for overall oral health by preventing bite changes and jaw issues
With good maintenance, false teeth can last many years and be adjusted as your mouth changes over time.
For patients seeking extra stability, dentures can be combined with dental implants. Implant-supported dentures are less likely to slip, improve biting force, and may reduce gum irritation compared to traditional removable dentures.
Your Lumino dentist can help you compare dentures vs implants and recommend the most suitable option based on your needs and budget.
