Dentures

To ensure your ideal denture fit and functionality, we work with denture specialists to help you achieve your perfect smile.

Your dental professional may recommend one of the following types of dentures for you:

• Traditional Partial Dentures
  Traditional partial dentures are typically replacement teeth connected to a plastic base that is the colour of your gums for the most natural appearance. These dentures are most often recommended for people who still have some of their own teeth in the upper or lower jaw. The partial denture serves to fill in the gaps left by the missing teeth and also ensures that the teeth still in place in the jaw do not shift position. Partial dentures can be made to be completely removable, attaching to the teeth through small internal clasps instead of crowns which attach to the adjacent teeth.
• Complete Dentures
  Complete dentures replace all natural teeth and cover the entire upper or lower jaw. These dentures rest directly on the gum and provide support for the cheeks and lips.Complete dentures are typically put in place once the mouth has healed from the extraction of all of the teeth. This is most often done at eight to 12 weeks post surgery.
• Valplast® Dentures
  Another type of partial dentures, Valplast dentures are an attractive option if you are looking for a tooth replacement option that offers you the maximum of comfort at an affordable price. Valplast dentures are comprised of a thermoplastic nylon resin. The advantage to this type of denture is that the appliance is thin, lightweight, and flexible. They attach to the teeth through a set of gum or tooth coloured clasps around the teeth still in position in the jaw. Since no steel is used in the construction of Valplast dentures, this type of tooth replacement is the perfect choice if you suffer from allergies to metal.
• Metal-free esthetic dentures
  If you suffer from allergies to metal or you find traditional dental appliances have an off-putting metallic taste, metal-free esthetic dentures are the ideal solution for you. Metal-free esthetic dentures can be made in partial or complete varieties to suit your specific dental needs. The advantages to this type of dental appliance goes far beyond the esthetic. Metal-free esthetic dentures are durable, flexible, and precise to ensure your perfect fit.
