denture repairs

Can a broken denture be repaired?

Often, yes.

Whether repair is possible depends on where the denture has broken, whether any pieces are missing, the condition and age of the denture, how well it currently fits, and whether it has fractured previously. Possible solutions may include:

  • Repair of the denture.
  • Replacement of a broken denture tooth.
  • Adjustment.
  • Relining where appropriate.
  • Temporary repair.
  • Replacement with a new denture.

Your dentist will advise whether repairing the existing denture or replacing it would provide the more predictable result.

denture repairs by clinician

What should I do if my denture breaks?

  • Keep all broken pieces.
  • Bring them to your appointment.
  • Avoid wearing the denture if it has sharp or unstable edges.
  • Do not force a broken denture back into place.
  • Do not use household glue or superglue.

Using unsuitable adhesives can make professional repair more difficult.

Tired of loose or unstable dentures?

  • More stable options may be available: If your denture repeatedly moves, breaks or requires adhesive, you may wish to consider a more secure long-term solution.
  • Implant-retained dentures: Dental implants can be used to help stabilise a removable denture, potentially improving stability, confidence when eating, speech, comfort and reliance on denture adhesive.
  • Fixed full-arch teeth: For suitable patients who want to move away from removable dentures, full-arch dental implants can support a fixed bridge of replacement teeth.

Frequently asked questions

Can you repair a broken denture?

Many broken dentures can be repaired, depending on the type of damage and condition of the denture.

Can my denture be repaired on the same day?

Same-day repair may be possible in some cases, depending on the repair required and laboratory availability.

Should I glue the denture myself?

No. Avoid household adhesives or superglue.

What if my denture keeps breaking?

Repeated fractures can indicate a problem with the fit, bite or design. Replacement or an alternative tooth-replacement option may be more appropriate.

Can implants make my denture more stable?

Yes. Implant-retained dentures can provide greater stability for suitable patients.
