If you are weighing up dentures from Cardinia, in Melbourne's south-east, the appointment that comes first is an examination, not a fitting. Prime Smile Dental Clinic works from one practice inside Casey Medical Centre in Clyde, opened by Jonemson Perez in 2023, and Clyde and Cardinia fall in the one denture catchment, as do the patients booking dentures in Officer South. Full dentures and partial dentures are both fitted here, and the examination settles which suits your mouth. The clinic is open seven days.

Replacing Every Tooth, or Just the Gaps
A full denture stands in for every tooth in an upper or lower jaw. A partial sits alongside the teeth you are keeping and fills the spaces between them. Which one you end up with follows the in-depth check-up your dentist in Cardinia carries out: X-rays and diagnostics where warranted, then the options set out with pricing attached before you agree to anything. If teeth need to come out first, you hear it at the start.
About Prime Smile Dental Clinic in Clyde
Jonemson Perez opened Prime Smile Dental Clinic in 2023, and it has run from the one set of rooms inside Casey Medical Centre ever since. Come back with a question and it is the same address, and the dentist who examined you.
Dr Mary Roneth Perez, Dr Simi Dhaliwal and Dr Afreen Nikhath each hold a Bachelor of Dental Surgery. Dr Lakshmi Pavan practises in general dentistry. Dr Gurleen Sekhon holds a BDS, a Master of Public Health from Deakin University and ADC certification, and Dr Jeff Field is the clinic’s anaesthetist, who covers sedation. The About page carries the full profiles.
Preferred Providers
Paying for a Denture When the Number Comes Later
Three things move what a denture costs: whether it replaces every tooth in a jaw or only some, what the examination and diagnostics turn up, and whether other treatment has to happen first. None of it is a phone answer, so contact the clinic for current pricing.
How you pay can be settled earlier. Prime Smile Dental Clinic is a preferred provider with private health insurers, so bring your fund details. Beyond that: cash or card, Afterpay, Zip, payment plans through the finance companies the practice partners with, and early release of superannuation, which takes time to arrange, so raise it early.
Two points deserve to be plain. The no-gap arrangement with private health funds applies to a check-up and clean, not to a denture. Medicare’s Child Dental Benefits Schedule is for eligible children up to 17, so it is not the route for an adult. Bring any concession card, veteran’s card or fund membership and the clinic can tell you what applies to you.
When You Can Come In, and How to Arrange It
Denture care runs across more than one appointment, so read the hours against your own week.
- Monday to Friday: 9am to 6pm
- Saturday: 8am to 6pm
- Sunday: 9am to 3pm
Saturday and Sunday are ordinary openings rather than an after-hours arrangement, so a weekend examination is within reach if you cannot take a weekday off. Ring (03) 592 922 53 or 0477 138 908 during those hours, or book online any time.
Payment Plan Options
We have Partnership with Companies that Allow Clients to Pay Dental Services in Flexible Terms

What a Denture Asks of You, and What Gets Weighed Against It
A denture is removable. It lifts out to be cleaned and it rests on your gum, and the two worries people raise most often are whether it will stay put and whether they will still sound like themselves. Say so at the consultation, because it shapes what gets recommended.
Dental implants, crowns and bridges are provided at the Clyde clinic too, as are clear aligners and braces in Cardinia, so any of them can be weighed in one conversation. A dentist raising those first is not talking you out of anything: a tooth that can be saved is worth saving, and what your jaw will carry is a clinical answer, not a preference.
The First Appointment, and What It Settles
One appointment turns an open question about missing teeth into a named denture with a price beside it, and nothing is agreed before you have both.
Ring (03) 592 922 53 or 0477 138 908 during opening hours, or book online any time.

Medicare, Prices and the Reasons Dentists Push Back
Are dentures covered by Medicare in Australia?
Medicare’s Child Dental Benefits Schedule is limited to eligible children up to 17, so an adult having a denture fitted is outside it. Private health cover is the usual route, and Prime Smile Dental Clinic is a preferred provider with private health insurers.
What is the average price of dentures in Australia?
A published average lumps a partial filling one gap in with a full set for a jaw that needs work done first, so it is poor material for planning your own cost. The order of events is more useful: examination, options, price, then treatment.
Why do dentists discourage dentures?
Dentists tend to ask what can be kept before they discuss what can be replaced, and that reads as discouragement if you have already made up your mind. Where a tooth cannot be saved, a full or partial denture is a straightforward answer, and the examination confirms it.
