Dentures & Partial Dentures

A denture is a removable dental appliance that replaces missing teeth and the surrounding tissue. Dentures are designed to be comfortable and functional. They are very similar in appearance to natural teeth and can dramatically improve your smile and facial appearance.

There are two types of dentures - complete and partial 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. A partial denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth. It consists of prosthetic teeth attached to a gum-coloured base that attaches to your natural teeth with clasps. A partial denture not only fills in the spaces created by missing teeth, it prevents other teeth from shifting.

Your dentist or dental hygienist may recommend detures for the following reasons:

• Loss of all teeth in an arch.
• Loss of several teeth in an arch.
• Enhancing smile and appearance.
• Improving chewing, speech, and digestion.
