Replica denture FAQ
Answers about digital replica dentures, scanning and what to expect as the service develops.
What is a replica denture?
A replica denture is made using a digital record of an existing denture. The aim is to reproduce the established shape as closely as the chosen manufacturing process allows.
Why use a digital scan?
A suitable digital record can be stored for future use and may help reproduce an existing denture. Its accuracy still depends on the scan quality and the manufacturing process.
Will it fit exactly the same?
A replica is intended to reproduce the existing appliance, but no website should promise that every new device will require no adjustment. Fit, tissues, wear and manufacturing tolerances all matter.
Where can I get a scan?
Your existing dentist may be able to help. A directory of participating scanning providers is a future goal. The scan must meet the technical requirements of the selected laboratory.
Can I choose a different colour?
Depending on the manufacturing option, tooth and gum shades may be available. This needs to be confirmed against the current laboratory range.
How will I pay?
Online orders, payments and clinical-file uploads are not enabled on this website. Any future order will need a confirmed clinical, laboratory and payment pathway.
What if my old denture already fits badly?
Copying a poorly fitting denture will not solve the underlying problem. A dental assessment, reline, new denture or another treatment may be more appropriate.
What about oral health checks?
A stored denture scan does not replace examination of the mouth. Changes, pain, ulcers, swelling or other concerns should be assessed appropriately.
What is the complaints/refund process?
Terms for remakes, fitting, complaints and refunds will need to be provided before any orders can be accepted. There is no checkout on this website at present.
