You want or are considering getting dentures and your dentist recommends dentures. This is of course not an easy decision. Switching from your own teeth to dentures is a very big step. Your teeth play an important role not only for chewing and speaking, but also for your appearance and appearance.
A suitable solution for every situation
Every teeth is different. That’s why every denture requires a different approach and the reasons why you need dentures are very diverse. Have you come at the time to do something about it now? Dental care has the solution for every reason.
You can come to us in both Amsterdam North and Zaandam for the treatment of your own teeth and opt for complete dentures. We have all specialists under one roof where you are central throughout the entire process. From the moment you come to the dentist for a consultation to the moment you can walk out smiling again with new full dentures.
During the first appointment with the dentist, a comprehensive treatment plan is drawn up. This appointment takes approximately 30 minutes. In the treatment plan, we examine your wishes and needs and discuss the options with you. We also try to discuss the costs with you as transparently as possible and you will receive a budget after this consultation.
If the dentist decides together with you to extract all teeth, the dentist will initiate the treatment plan. After the treatment plan has been accepted, the dentist will refer you to the KPT (clinical prosthesis technician). Below you will find an overview of all treatments/visits. Each treatment will take approximately 30 minutes.
The third visit to the KPT consists of a bite determination phase. In this phase the correct position of the jaws is determined by the KPT. These dimensions go to our laboratory. There the dental technicians will use these dimensions to imitate the temporomandibular joints (articulator). In our laboratory we will remove the teeth that have to be extracted on the plaster model. With this information we will make a denture in wax by means of the size, desired color and position.
In most cases you will first receive an immediate prosthesis. This is a temporary prosthesis. In the beginning, the immediate denture will not fit well and it may feel cramping and painful and you will still feel pain after the extraction treatment. That is why you will visit the dentist after 24 hours for a (wound) check-up. Afterwards you go directly to the KPT for a check of your dentures. Your immediate prosthesis will also be rebased and you will receive tips for wearing the prosthesis, for example when eating and talking.
After the wounds have healed, the jaw will begin to shrink. After three months we usually place a light filling at the KPT’er. Six months after placement, we will decide whether another filling will take place. You will return to the dentist after four months. This will determine to what extent the jaw has shrunk and it will be determined in more detail whether new permanent dentures will be made for you.
You can be assured that we have the entire process in our own hands during the entire process from your own teeth to dentures. Our own specialists manufacture your dentures in our own laboratory and we therefore do not deliver imported dentures from abroad. Finally, we offer good aftercare every day. We have mapped out a whole process for this. We are one of the few that can realize this in a fast pace of 5 working days.
We are open daily all year round and we have at least 2 to 3 KPT staff in house for good aftercare for our patients. This also applies to emergency repairs that have to be carried out in 1 day. Our aim is always to repair or rebasing your dentures the same day so that you can wear your dentures comfortably again.

At DentalZorg we also like to help our anxious patients to have radiant teeth. In the event of extreme fear, we offer the option of being treated under anesthesia. This way you will not feel anything from the treatment. Thanks to our extensive team of specialists, we offer you the option of having your teeth extracted completely under anaesthetic. With a general anesthetic you will not feel or notice anything of the dental treatment.
