Partial Dentures

Successful partial denture fabrication involves a complex interplay of factors. The consultation allows Evan to evaluate the anatomical, physiological and patient specific oral health and prognosis of existing teeth. Acrylic, resin, cobalt chrome, titanium and thermoplastic nylon choices each offer unique characteristics and have suitability for specific clinical applications. Evan works with the patient to ensure they are 100% involved in the denture crafting process.

Acrylic/ Resin Partial : From $1,400

Cobalt Chrome Partial: From $1,950

Flexible Partial: From $1,850

Titanium/ Hybrid/ Bespoke: POA

The consultation is a critical first step in achieving denture success. The appointment involves Evan listening to the patient, an intraoral examination, clinical diagnosis, honest discussion on all options, fee(s) and recommendations. Patients are never pressured into making a decision. Evan currently Lectures Dental Prosthetist undergraduates at TAFE South Bank, Queensland. This ensures he's up-to-date in all evidence-based research, cutting edge clinical and manufacturing technologies.

Initial Consultation: $150.00 Free

Bite Splints

The medical term for teeth grinding is bruxism, a condition in which you squeeze or rub your teeth together, also called clenching. Evan has manufactured splints, on referral, for 1000's of patients suffering from this dental condition. Australian legislation mandates that splint fabrication must be on referral from a Dentist as part of a comprehensive dental treatment plan. For our patient's who exhibit symptoms of bruxism, we are happy to refer to ethical Dentists for diagnosis.

Bite Splint: From $640.00

Bespoke

Occasionally a patient requests a denture so lifelike it takes exceptional effort to fabricate. Evan has developed a unique system involving use of various teeth moulds, shapes, forms and subtle stains to mimic reality. Gum contour and shade tinting allows for a truly individual appearance. Premium quality, hand-crafted acrylics, strengthened. We dedicate time to manually adjust teeth real-time with the patient unhurriedly providing feedback. The dentures are only processed once the patient is 100% happy with the new smile.

Bespoke Full Upper & Lower Denture: $7000,00

Bespoke Partial Dentures: POA

Immediate denture treatment involves fitting of a provisional prosthesis following extraction of natural teeth. It is an emotional and challenging journey for the patient, requiring high levels of clinician engagement. Treatment cycles vary wildly between individuals, being based on factors ranging from number of teeth being removed, to physiology and medical status, and so many more. Our recommendation is to book a consultation with Evan to unhurriedly discuss the impact of teeth loss, your specific circumstances, and how we can best plan supporting you through this major life event.

Mariam, Lower Hutt

Very recently I accidentally lost my lower acrylic partial! A local Dentist suggested it would take 10 days for a replacement set to be made. Being too embarrassed to go to work – my role is client facing! – I went on-line and discovered Evan's practice in Johnsonville. Evan saw me that afternoon and was able to make a fabulous plate in five days (incidentally for a more economical fee than my Dentist!). I was so grateful and pleased that I have referred a number of other clients to Evan. They are all very happy.

R Thwaites, Wairarapa

Evan made me a full upper plate in January 2014. I have not had any pain or problems since the careful fitting. He (Evan) made the whole process easy and uncomplicated. A top quality job at a reasonable price. Thank-you Evan.

Gail Hailey, Porirua

All of my teeth were extracted by an over-zealous Dentist when I was 22 years old. Over the subsequent years my lower jaw has collapsed completely to the point that my lower denture now moves all over the place. Evan advised me of dental implants for my lower jaw. Once the implants were placed Evan skilfully fitted the plate to create a stable lower denture. I am so pleased with the results and genuinely wish I had met Evan years ago. Everyone comments on how lovely my teeth look. A fabulous outcome. Evan is highly recommended.

Peter Young, Wellington

My Dentist told me that Evan and his team were the best to help with my on-going denture issues. I had been struggling to eat properly for many months when I first met Evan. He highlighted the problems almost instantly and went about making a new metal framework that anchored on my lower teeth. The improvement was instant. I can now eat anything with ease and confidence. The whole process was a pleasure. I can’t recommend Evan highly enough!

K Luck, Wellington

An accident as a teenager left me with two front teeth missing. The only option available then was to have a small denture with a couple of teeth. This was provided by my dentures dentist and has been replaced and updated several times over the years by various dentists and their technicians in the UK and NZ. This year I discovered that it was possible to go directly to a dental technician and have the impressions, construction and fitting done by just one person, Evan Sallis. It has been a completely different experience and so straightforward! For the first time I’ve had a denture made that looks good and is secure and comfortable right from day one. I’m so pleased. I wish I had been able to do this years ago. Thanks Evan!

B Taylor, Wellington

At age 83 years indigestion was telling me I needed a new set of teeth dentures. Fortunately, I heard of Evan Sallis who made me a new set at a very reasonable cost. I am very satisfied with them and recommend him for a good result.

W Hughes, Wellington

Recently I had a denture made by Dr Evan Sallis. This denture replaced one I had had for about 30 years so I had no recent experience of what was involved and in particular dealing directly with the technician doing the work. I was very impressed by the patience and professionalism shown by Evan Sallis as we went through the process of impressions, fittings and the choice and alignment of the teeth before the finished article was produced. Initially, there was a bit of discomfort but that disappeared after a few days. I now have a denture which looks great and feels great, all achieved in a relaxed and friendly environment. I am a very happy customer who would strongly recommend his services to anyone requiring denture work.
