Dentures
Dentures are a reliable, time-tested solution for replacing missing teeth and restoring your ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Whether you need a full set or a partial denture to fill in gaps, we design each one to fit comfortably and look natural. Our team works closely with you to find the right option based on your needs, lifestyle, and goals.

Types of dentures we offer
We provide full dentures for patients who have lost all of their teeth in one or both arches, and partial dentures for those who still have some healthy natural teeth remaining. Partial dentures use clasps or precision attachments to stay in place alongside your existing teeth, while full dentures rest on the gums and are custom-shaped to your mouth for a secure, comfortable fit.
The denture fitting process
Creating dentures involves several appointments to ensure the best fit and appearance. We take detailed impressions and measurements of your mouth, select the right shade and shape for your teeth, and do trial fittings before the final denture is completed. This careful process helps ensure your dentures look natural and feel comfortable from day one.
Adjusting to your new dentures
It is normal to need a short adjustment period when you first start wearing dentures. Speaking and eating may feel different at first, but most patients adapt within a few weeks. We schedule follow-up visits to check the fit, make adjustments, and address any sore spots so your dentures feel as comfortable as possible.
Care and maintenance
Proper denture care helps them last longer and keeps your mouth healthy. We recommend removing and rinsing dentures after eating, brushing them daily with a soft brush, and soaking them overnight. Regular dental checkups allow us to monitor the fit and condition of your dentures and make adjustments as needed over time.

What Types of Dentures Are Available?
We offer complete dentures for patients missing all teeth and partial dentures for those missing several teeth. Options include conventional removable dentures, immediate dentures (placed right after extractions), and implant-supported dentures for a more secure fit.
How Long Do Dentures Last?
With proper care, a well-made set of dentures typically lasts 5 to 8 years. Over time, natural changes in your jawbone and gums may require adjustments or a reline. We recommend annual checkups to ensure your dentures continue to fit well.
How Long Does It Take to Get Used to Wearing Dentures?
Most patients adjust to their new dentures within 2 to 4 weeks. Speaking and eating may feel different at first, but practice and patience help. We schedule follow-up visits to make any needed adjustments for comfort.
How Do Dentures Stay in Place?
Partial dentures clip onto remaining natural teeth, while complete dentures rely on suction and the shape of your gums. Denture adhesive can provide extra security. For the most stable option, ask us about implant-supported dentures.
How Much Do Dentures Cost?
The cost depends on the type of denture and materials used. We provide a detailed estimate during your consultation and offer financing options to help make treatment affordable. Some insurance plans and the CDCP cover a portion of denture costs.
