Your Denture Questions Answered

With proper care, dentures typically last around 5–7 years. Over time, natural changes to your mouth and everyday wear may mean they need adjusting, relining or replacing to maintain their fit and comfort.

Modern dentures can be carefully designed to complement your facial features and replicate the shape, shade and position of natural teeth. At Brick Street Dentures, we take a personalised approach to creating a natural-looking smile that feels right for you.

The cost depends on the type of denture, materials used and complexity of your treatment. We’ll talk you through the available options and associated costs during your consultation, helping you make an informed decision without pressure.
