Where Are My Dentures Manufactured?

Probably most patients are unaware more and more laboratory work is being sourced from Asian Laboratories located (for the most part) in China under the guise of Australian-addressed companies.


These companies are little more than freight forwarding to facilitate the passage of goods to and from countries such as China. The lax regulatory environment in China has recently seen such issues as melamine appearing in milk.


The materials for the construction of oral applications within Australia are required by law to be made using equipment and materials approved by the Therapeutic Goods Association of Australia (TGA). Imported medical devices, due to current law interpretation, are not subject to these regulations.


For patients, this raises three questions:

  1. If my dentures are being made overseas, are they safe?
  2. If my dentures are being made overseas, are the cost savings being passed on to me?
  3. Have I been informed and approved if my dentures are being made overseas?
