What exactly is a Clinical Dental Technician, and how can they help me?

A Clinical Dental Technician (CDT) plays a crucial role in providing high-quality denture care, offering a seamless experience for patients in need of new dentures, repairs, or adjustments direct to the public.

A CDT specialises in the design, fabrication, and fitting of dentures, ensuring a tailored solution that meets your individual needs. Unlike mass-produced dentures, bespoke dentures are crafted to match your natural facial structure, enhancing comfort, appearance, and function.

In many cases, a CDT ensures that you are dentally fit by referring you to a dentist for a comprehensive oral health check-up. This is essential to confirm that your gums and any remaining teeth are healthy and that your new dentures will be safe and effective. This collaborative approach ensures long-term oral health and prevents potential complications. This comes at no extra cost, when using The Denture Spa.

CDTs understand that being without dentures can be inconvenient and uncomfortable. That’s why we can offer same-day or rapid turnaround services for:

• Denture repairs – Fixing breaks, cracks, or missing teeth efficiently.

• Relines and adjustments – Ensuring a snug and comfortable fit as your gums change over time.

• Emergency dentures – Providing urgent solutions when dentures are lost or severely damaged.

Unlike traditional dental labs, where dentures are made without direct patient interaction, a CDT works one-on-one with you to ensure your needs and preferences are met. This personal approach guarantees:

• Better communication about fit and comfort.

• Dentures that match your desired appearance in terms of shade, shape, and smile design.

• Immediate modifications and adjustments during the process.

A CDT doesn’t just provide dentures—they ensure you adapt to them comfortably. This includes:

• Follow-up appointments to check fit and function.

• Denture cleaning and maintenance advice to extend the life of your dentures.

• Guidance on eating and speaking to help you adjust smoothly.

With extensive experience and specialised skills, a Clinical Dental Technician provides a complete denture service that ensures comfort, confidence, and convenience—giving you a smile that looks and feels great.
