Quality mobile denture service to aged care homes and retirement villages across Melbourne.
Anna Drinkwater is a qualified and registered Dental Prosthetist with a Diploma in Dental Technology and Advanced Diploma in Dental Prosthetics, with 15 years of dental industry experience.
We have experience providing a mobile denture service to aged care homes and retirement villages, understanding commitment to providing compassionate, convenient, and high-quality denture service.
We can design, construct, and fit custom-made dental prostheses, such as complete or partial dentures, with quality materials that are TGA approved and Australian made. If you have a broken or loose fitting denture, same day denture repairs and relines can be provided.
The great thing about a mobile denture service is that patient's can receive necessary denture-related services in the comfort of their home. When going through the process of making new dentures, we will make sure your time is as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Attention to detail, time and care is important when choosing the right teeth. We hand craft the dentures and will work with you for results that you will be happy, comfortable and confident with.
Maintaining good oral health involves a combination of regular dental checkups, proper oral hygiene practices, and a healthy diet. This includes:
Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled brush.
Flossing daily to remove food particles and plaque between teeth.
Eating a healthy, balanced diet that is low in sugar and high in vitamins and minerals.
Limiting intake of sugary and acidic drinks and snacks.
Avoiding tobacco use, which can increase the risk of gum disease and oral cancer.
Visiting a dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings, as well as any necessary treatments.
Good oral health is important not only for the health of the mouth and teeth, but also for overall health and wellbeing.
Maintaining your dentures is important to keep them long lasting. This can be achieved by cleaning them daily with a denture cleaning product and using a denture brush to help remove food particles.

Edentulous patients, who have lost all of their natural teeth, may experience jaw recession or resorption over time. Jaw recession refers to the gradual loss of bone mass in the jawbone, which can lead to a sunken or collapsed appearance of the lower face. Tooth loss can lead to changes in the alignment and distribution of forces in the mouth. Without proper support from teeth, the remaining bone in the jaw may undergo changes to accommodate the altered bite, leading to bone resorption.
To address the issue of jaw recession in edentulous patients, dentures can be designed to restore the vertical dimension in patient's who have experienced a loss of vertical height due to factors such as tooth loss, bone resorption, or over-closure. Restoring the appropriate vertical dimension is important for proper dental function, aesthetics, and overall oral health.
