Dentures in Perth
Missing several teeth, or dealing with a denture that no longer fits the way it used to? Dental O So Gentle provides custom dentures across our two Perth clinics in the Perth CBD on St Georges Terrace and in Beldon, in Perth’s northern suburbs helping restore both the appearance and function of your smile. Whether you need a full replacement, a partial denture or a repair to an existing set, our team focuses on getting the fit right, so your dentures feel secure and natural day to day. We understand dentures are something you rely on every day, which is why getting the details right matters so much.
With more than 100 years of combined clinical experience across our team and a focus on gentle, patient-comfortable care, we take the time to get the fit and finish right for you.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are custom-made, removable dental appliances that replace missing teeth, helping restore your smile’s appearance and function. Whether you’ve lost several teeth or need a complete replacement, they offer a practical and dependable option for many patients. We create custom-made dentures tailored to your individual needs, aiming for a natural appearance, comfortable fit and improved oral function.
For many patients, dentures aren’t just about appearance. Being able to chew and speak comfortably again has a real impact on day to day life from enjoying meals with family to feeling confident in social situations. This is often the part of denture treatment that makes the biggest difference in the weeks and months after a fitting.
Benefits of Custom Dentures
- Restored function — helps rebuild your ability to chew and speak comfortably after tooth loss.
- Natural appearance — custom-crafted to look natural and restore the appearance of your smile.
- Facial support — helps support your facial structure and reduce the sagging that can follow tooth loss.
- Renewed confidence — supports your confidence with a natural-looking, complete smile.
These benefits tend to matter most when a denture is properly fitted to begin with. An ill-fitting denture can undermine them, which is why our process places so much emphasis on getting the measurements, trial fitting and final adjustments right before you leave with your finished dentures. A denture that fits well from the outset tends to need fewer follow up adjustments later, which makes the whole experience smoother.
Denture Options and Care Across Our Two Perth Clinics
We focus on your oral health and confidence through comprehensive dental care, including general and restorative dentistry and custom denture solutions. Custom dentures are available at both clinics, and we can talk through the option that suits you from full and partial dentures to implant-supported dentures (All-on-4) where appropriate.
At our Perth CBD clinic, denture and prosthetic work draws on the expertise of Dr Rohan Jagota, who holds a Bachelor of Dental Science from the University of Western Australia and includes prosthodontics among his areas of practice, alongside our Principal Dentist Dr Jeff Broude (Bachelor of Dental Science, 35+ years’ clinical experience), whose focus includes implant dentistry relevant if you’re considering implant-supported dentures. At our Beldon clinic, restorative and comprehensive denture care is provided by general dentists Dr Ileana Kalamaras and Dr Nadia Roe. Across both clinics, we take the time to explain your options clearly, so you understand the reasoning behind any recommendation before committing to treatment.
The Dentures Process
Step One
Consultation and Impressions:
We assess your oral health during a check-up, using X-rays to check for signs of gum disease or the need for any extractions, discuss your needs, and recommend the most suitable denture type. We then take precise measurements and impressions of your gums and jaw to help ensure an accurate fit.
Step Two
Trial and Final Fitting:
We test a trial version for comfort and function, making any adjustments needed, before your custom dentures are crafted and fitted for a natural appearance.
Step Three
Follow-Up Care:
We provide guidance on maintenance and schedule follow-up visits for any adjustments or repairs, helping keep your dentures fitting comfortably over time.
Because comfort can shift slightly as your gums and jaw settle, we build follow-up visits into the process rather than treating the initial fitting as the final step. Most adjustments at this stage are minor, but it’s much easier to correct small issues early than to leave them and have them affect how comfortable your dentures feel over the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get used to wearing dentures?
Most patients need some time to adjust to speaking and eating with new dentures, and this varies from person to person. Your dentist will guide you through the adjustment period and make any adjustments needed along the way.
Can I get dentures at both the Perth CBD and Beldon clinics?
Yes. Denture consultations, fittings and repairs are available at both our Perth CBD clinic on St Georges Terrace and our Beldon clinic on Eddystone Avenue. Implant-supported denture options (All-on-4) and prosthodontic care are provided at our Perth CBD clinic if you’re not sure which clinic suits you, either team can help.
Can my existing dentures be repaired instead of replaced?
In many cases, yes. Our team can assess whether a repair is suitable, or whether a new set would serve you better in the long run, depending on the extent of the damage and the age of your current dentures.
What are implant-supported dentures?
Implant-supported dentures (such as All-on-4) use dental implants to help hold the denture more securely in place, which some patients prefer for stability. Your dentist can discuss whether you’re a suitable candidate and how this compares with a conventional denture.
Will my private health extras cover the cost of dentures?
Many patients use private health extras cover towards dentures, though the amount depends on your level of cover and the type of denture. We’re happy to help you understand what your fund may cover and provide an estimate before treatment begins, and HICAPS is available for on the spot claiming where a treatment is eligible.
