It's all part of the service offered by prosthetist Mark McLaren, who has more than 40 years' experience in the field.
"Over the years the cosmetic look of dentures has improved greatly," Mr McLaren said.
"To achieve the most natural looking dentures we take into account a person's shape and complexion, age, size and gender."
The clinic also provides mouthguards for a range of sports.
A selection of colours are also now on the market.
Over his many years in the industry, Mark has kept pace with the change in impression techniques and dental materials used.
“There is a wider range of materials now used which allows for versatility to the prosthetist,” Mr McLaren said.
Denture wearers are welcome for free check-ups and advice on the condition of their dentures, Mr McLaren said.
“Many people opt to repair their dentures themselves, which unfortunately does not last long and only adds to the expense of a professional repair. Also, if your denture starts to crack it is best to act immediately.
“The fault will only deteriorate, leading to a more expensive repair.”
Mr McLaren said loose existing dentures can be relined to maximise fit and comfort.
“This procedure takes only 24 hours to complete and is over half the cost of new dentures.”
People who wear full dentures are advised to clean their dentures with a soft bristle toothbrush using warm water and a mild soap.
“Toothpastes tend to be too abrasive for dentures, and it is also advisable to use a separate soft bristle toothbrush to gently massage the oral tissues, which in turn stimulates the blood supply to the denture-bearing tissues,” Mr McLaren said.
Morisset Denture Clinic is conveniently located at Morisset.
