Tailored Partial Dentures
At Dentures Direct Ballina, we design and manufacture custom partial dentures that aim to restore function and appearance while supporting existing natural teeth. Partial dentures are removable oral prosthetic devices created to replace one or several missing teeth. Each appliance is individually designed using intra-oral scanning, detailed impressions and professional-grade materials to ensure comfort, stability and a natural look. Partial dentures help maintain proper bite alignment, support speech and chewing, and prevent nearby teeth from shifting into gaps.
Our dentures are crafted using a combination of digital technology and hand-finishing techniques, allowing for exceptional precision and a natural aesthetic finish. Every denture is designed and fitted by a qualified Dental Prosthetist with an Advanced Diploma of Dental Prosthetics, following industry standards for safety, accuracy and patient care.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are partial dentures used for?
Partial dentures are removable oral prosthetic devices that replace one or more missing teeth while supporting existing natural teeth. They restore everyday functions like speaking and chewing, while maintaining facial balance and preventing nearby teeth from moving into empty spaces. Each partial denture is custom-made by a dental professional to provide a secure fit and natural appearance that blends seamlessly with remaining teeth for improved comfort and confidence.
How are partial dentures made?
Creating partial dentures begins with a detailed impression of the mouth to record the contours of the gums and remaining teeth. The dental prosthetist then designs a model to determine the most suitable materials and structure, often using acrylic or metal frameworks for strength and stability. Once fabricated, the denture is carefully fitted and adjusted to ensure comfort, balance and natural alignment with the patient’s existing teeth.
How should partial dentures be cleaned?
Partial dentures should be cleaned daily using a soft brush and non-abrasive denture cleaner to remove food particles, plaque and bacteria. They should be rinsed after eating and stored in clean water or a denture solution when not in use to prevent drying or warping. Regular professional reviews help maintain hygiene and ensure the denture remains secure, comfortable and effective for long-term use.
Can you eat normally with partial dentures?
It may take some time to adjust to eating with partial dentures, but most patients adapt comfortably with practice. Starting with softer foods and gradually introducing firmer textures can help during the adjustment period. Chewing evenly on both sides of the mouth helps maintain balance and stability. Once accustomed, most people are able to enjoy a wide range of foods comfortably and confidently with properly fitted partial dentures.
Comfort, Function & Long-Term Support
We understand that every mouth is unique, and a well-fitting partial denture can make a significant difference in daily comfort. Our dentures are made to sit naturally alongside your remaining teeth, using lightweight acrylic or metal frameworks to ensure durability and stability. Each design is customised to distribute bite pressure evenly and reduce strain on surrounding teeth, supporting overall oral balance.
During the fitting process, we take time to explain how your partial denture will work, what to expect during the adjustment period and how to care for it properly. This ensures you feel informed and confident at every stage. Regular maintenance appointments are also recommended, as natural changes in the gums and jaw can affect the fit over time. By attending routine reviews, we can make minor adjustments or relines to maintain comfort, function and a secure fit.
Our goal is to provide a professional, evidence-based service that supports long-term oral health while helping you speak, eat and smile comfortably.
