Dentures & Partial Dentures
Comfortable, custom-crafted dentures that restore your smile, confidence, and ability to enjoy your favourite foods.
Replacing Missing Teeth with Dentures
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissue. Whether you are missing all of your teeth or just a few, modern dentures can restore your smile, improve your ability to chew and speak, and support your facial structure.
At All Smiles Dental Care, our on-site denturist crafts custom dentures with precision and care, ensuring a comfortable fit and a natural appearance for every patient.
Types of Dentures
We offer several types of dentures to meet your specific needs:
- Complete (full) dentures — replace all teeth in the upper or lower arch, or both
- Partial dentures — replace several missing teeth while keeping your remaining natural teeth
- Immediate dentures — placed immediately after tooth extraction so you never have to go without teeth
- Implant-supported dentures — secured by dental implants for superior stability and comfort
- Flexible partial dentures — made from lightweight, flexible materials for a more comfortable fit
The Denture Process
Creating custom dentures is a multi-step process that typically takes several weeks:
- Initial consultation and examination
- Impressions and measurements of your jaw and existing teeth
- Wax models or trials to preview the fit and appearance
- Fabrication of the final denture in our laboratory
- Final fitting and adjustments for comfort and aesthetics
- Follow-up visits to fine-tune the fit
Adjusting to Dentures
It is normal to need some time to adjust to new dentures. Initially, they may feel awkward or bulky, and you may notice increased saliva production. Eating soft foods and practising speaking can help speed up the adjustment period.
Your dental team will provide detailed instructions on wearing, cleaning, and caring for your dentures. Regular checkups are important to ensure your dentures continue to fit properly, as the shape of your jaw can change over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dentures last?
With proper care, dentures typically last five to ten years. Over time, your jawbone and gums change shape, which may require the dentures to be relined or remade for a proper fit.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
It is generally recommended to remove your dentures at night to give your gums and bone a chance to rest. Soaking them overnight in a denture cleaning solution helps keep them fresh and clean.
