Comprehensive Smile Solutions
Forster Full Dentures
Full dentures remain a widely used and effective option for replacing all missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. At Twin Towns Denture Clinic in Forster, we design full dentures that prioritise comfort, function and natural appearance. Our process involves carefully measuring the patient’s mouth, assessing jaw alignment and facial structure, and selecting appropriate materials and shades for a realistic fit. These dentures are fully removable and tailored to individual needs, helping restore normal speech, chewing ability, and facial shape.
We work closely with patients across Forster, Tuncurry and Laurieton to ensure every stage of the denture process is clearly explained and properly managed. Whether you’re receiving dentures for the first time or replacing an existing set, we aim to deliver dependable outcomes that support long-term oral health.

Tailored for Fit & Function
Each full denture is custom-fabricated to suit the patient’s anatomy and bite pattern. This ensures the appliance fits securely and functions well in daily life. The selection of materials—typically a high-grade acrylic base with carefully matched artificial teeth—supports both durability and comfort. Dentures can be fitted for the upper, lower or both arches depending on clinical need. We also offer ongoing adjustments to accommodate changes in the mouth over time, including relines and repairs.
A well-fitting full denture restores more than just appearance—it contributes to improved speech clarity, nutrition, and jaw alignment. Combined with regular cleaning and maintenance, this treatment option offers a reliable solution for those who have lost all natural teeth. Patients are encouraged to explore their options and discuss any questions during their consultation.
FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
What are full dentures made of?
Full dentures typically consist of an acrylic resin base that mimics gum tissue and a full set of artificial teeth made from either acrylic or porcelain. The materials are selected for their strength, durability and realistic appearance. Acrylic is more commonly used due to its lighter weight, ease of adjustment, and compatibility with oral tissues. The base is coloured to resemble natural gums, while the teeth are selected to match the patient’s facial features and preferences.
How long do full dentures last?
With proper care, full dentures generally last between 5 to 10 years. However, this can vary depending on usage, changes in the mouth and jaw, and how well the dentures are maintained. Over time, the fit may become loose due to natural bone resorption, and the teeth may show signs of wear. Regular check-ups are recommended to assess fit and function, and relines or replacements may be advised if issues arise.
Are full dentures difficult to get used to?
Adjusting to full dentures can take a few weeks, especially for first-time wearers. During this period, it’s common to experience minor irritation, increased saliva flow, or difficulty speaking and chewing. Most patients gradually adapt by wearing the dentures consistently and following their dental professional’s care advice. Practising speech and choosing softer foods during the adjustment phase can also help ease the transition.
What is the process for getting full dentures?
The process begins with a full oral assessment to determine the appropriate treatment plan. This includes taking impressions of the mouth, bite registrations, and selecting the right tooth shape and colour. A trial denture may be fitted to check positioning and comfort before the final set is made. After fitting, patients may return for minor adjustments to optimise function and fit. Follow-up appointments are recommended to monitor oral health and denture performance over time.
