Traditional denture treatment often involves messy impressions, multiple appointments and lengthy treatment times. Our digital workflow offers a more comfortable and convenient alternative.
Using advanced 3D scanning technology, we can capture a detailed digital scan of your mouth without the need for traditional impression materials. The scan itself takes just 30–60 seconds, making the process far more comfortable, especially for patients with a sensitive gag reflex.
Your dentures are then digitally designed using advanced software and carefully crafted by experienced dental technicians to help achieve the best possible fit, natural appearance and lasting comfort.
In many cases, treatment can be completed in just two treatment appointments following your initial consultation. With fewer appointments, less time in the dental chair and greater precision throughout the process, it’s a modern approach to denture treatment.

Why Digital Scanning Is Better Than Traditional Impressions
Traditional denture impressions rely on impression materials to capture the shape of your mouth. While they have been used successfully for many years, they can be uncomfortable for patients and are dependent on multiple clinical and laboratory stages. During these stages, small inaccuracies can sometimes occur.
Digital scanning captures a highly detailed 3D image of your mouth in seconds, creating a precise digital record that can be used to design your dentures. The scan is available immediately, allowing every stage of your treatment to be planned using a fully digital workflow.
The result is a cleaner, more comfortable experience, greater precision and a streamlined process designed to help achieve the best possible outcome.
The Digital Difference
Digital technology transforms the way dentures are planned and created, making treatment simpler for patients while maintaining the same attention to detail throughout the process.

Your Digital Denture Journey
1. Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a denture consultation. We’ll assess your oral health, discuss your concerns, smile goals and expectations, and determine whether Digital Dentures are the right option for you. We’ll explain the treatment process, answer any questions and provide you with a personalised treatment plan.
2. Digital Scan Appointment
At your scan appointment, we’ll take a precise 3D digital scan of your mouth. While the scan itself takes around 30–60 seconds, the appointment typically lasts 45–60 minutes.
During this visit, we’ll also record your bite, take clinical photographs and gather all the information needed to digitally design your new dentures. Your digital records are then securely shared with our dental laboratory, allowing our clinicians and technicians to work together throughout the design process.
3. Fit Appointment
Once your dentures have been carefully manufactured, you’ll return for your fitting appointment. We’ll check the fit, comfort and appearance, make any adjustments if required, and ensure you’re happy with your new dentures before you leave.
