Dentures are removable replacement teeth used to restore your smile and bite after you've lost one, several, or all of your natural teeth. Modern dentures are custom-fitted to your mouth so they sit securely, feel comfortable, and blend in naturally with the rest of your smile — a noticeable step up from the bulky, ill-fitting dentures of the past.
Full dentures replace every tooth in a single arch (upper, lower, or both) and are recommended when you're missing all or nearly all of your natural teeth. Each set is custom-shaped to fit the contours of your gums and jaw, so it stays stable and secure while you eat and speak.
Partial dentures replace one or more missing teeth while you still have most of your natural teeth remaining. A partial denture typically attaches to your natural teeth using discreet metal clasps, filling the gap left by missing teeth while supporting the teeth around it.
For patients who want extra stability, dentures can be anchored to dental implants rather than relying on suction or clasps alone. Implant-supported dentures stay firmly in place, improve chewing strength, and help prevent the jawbone loss that can occur with traditional dentures over time. Ask us about combining Dental Implants with your denture plan.
Over time, your jawbone and gums change shape and a denture that once fit well can start to feel loose. We offer denture relines to re-fit an existing denture to your current mouth shape, along with repairs for cracked, chipped, or broken dentures — so you're not always starting from scratch.
If you need teeth extracted, an immediate denture can be placed the same day as your extractions, so you're never without teeth while your mouth heals and a long-term denture is finalized.
Dentures are made from a combination of materials depending on cost, durability, and how they'll function in your mouth. The base is typically a durable acrylic that's shaped to fit your gums, while the replacement teeth are designed to resemble your natural teeth in shape and color. Partial dentures may also include a metal framework or metal clasps that clip onto your natural teeth for extra stability. We'll walk you through the material options — and how each one affects comfort, appearance, and cost — at your consultation.
Most patients need a short adjustment period — often a few weeks — to get used to speaking and eating with new dentures. Starting with soft foods, reading out loud to practice speech, and using a small amount of denture adhesive if recommended can all help. If a denture feels loose, sore, or uncomfortable beyond the normal adjustment window, a reline or adjustment can usually fix it.

Denture cost depends on whether you need full, partial, or implant-supported dentures, and which materials you choose. Our denture pricing is set lower than the Alberta Dental Fee Guide — book a free consultation for a personalized, written estimate.
Most patients adjust within a few weeks. Eating soft foods at first, practicing speaking, and following our aftercare instructions all help speed up the adjustment period.
You'll likely start with softer foods and gradually reintroduce firmer foods as you get used to your new dentures. Implant-supported dentures generally restore chewing strength faster than removable dentures alone.
Full dentures replace every tooth in an arch when most or all natural teeth are missing. Partial dentures fill in one or more gaps while your remaining natural teeth stay in place, usually held with metal clasps.
With proper care, most dentures last 5 to 10 years before they need replacing or relining, though changes in your jawbone and gums may require adjustments sooner.
Many patients need a reline every couple of years as the shape of the gums and jawbone changes, though this varies from person to person — we'll check the fit at your regular checkups.
Coverage varies depending on your plan or benefit program. Our team can help you understand what's covered and estimate your out-of-pocket cost before treatment.
