Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth that restore your smile, chewing and speech. Full and partial options are available across our five Hong Kong clinics, and a simple denture can often be made in about a week.
What are dentures?
Dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth and the surrounding tissue. As well as restoring a natural appearance, they help you chew and speak more comfortably and support the neighbouring teeth by stopping them from drifting. A straightforward denture can often be completed in about a week.
Types of dentures
- Full dentures: replace all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw when no natural teeth remain.
- Partial dentures: fill the gaps where some natural teeth remain, clipping around them.
- Flexible dentures: a lightweight, comfortable type of partial denture with no metal clasps.
- Removable dentures (sometimes called false teeth) are taken out for easy cleaning; implant-supported options offer a more secure, fixed feel — your dentist can explain both.
What to expect
Making a denture takes a few visits: impressions or scans, a try-in to check fit and appearance, and fitting the finished denture. New dentures can feel unusual at first, and it is normal to need a short adjustment period and one or two reviews to fine-tune the fit.
Caring for your dentures
- Clean them daily over a soft surface or water to avoid breakage if dropped.
- Remove them at night unless advised otherwise, and keep them moist.
- Keep up regular check-ups so the fit can be reviewed as your mouth changes over time.
How much do dentures cost in Hong Kong?
The Prince Philip Dental Hospital’s private-patient fee schedule lists removable partial dentures at HK$8,000–30,000 and complete dentures at HK$15,000–30,000. It does not specify “per arch” for these two items. Ask whether your quote covers the upper arch, lower arch or both, and whether making, fitting and adjustments are included.
