What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace missing teeth and surrounding oral tissues. They are custom-designed to fit your mouth and can help restore chewing, speech, facial support, and the appearance of your smile.
Depending on your situation, dentures may replace some or all of the teeth.

Types of Dentures
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures replace all teeth in the upper or lower arch and are designed to restore essential oral functions and appearance.
- Partial Dentures: Partial dentures replace several missing teeth while using remaining natural teeth for support, depending on the design.
- Immediate Dentures: Immediate dentures can be prepared before planned tooth extraction and placed soon after teeth are removed. They may provide a temporary replacement while the mouth heals.
- Implant-Supported Overdentures : Overdentures can be supported by dental implants, providing additional stability compared with conventional removable dentures in suitable patients.
Our Denture Treatment Process
- Examination & Consultation
We evaluate your gums, remaining teeth, bite, and oral health to determine the appropriate denture option. - Impressions or Digital Records
Accurate impressions or digital records are taken to help create dentures that fit your mouth comfortably. - Custom Fabrication
Your dentures are fabricated according to the planned design, tooth arrangement, size, shape, and appearance. - Fitting & Adjustments
We check the fit, bite, comfort, and appearance and make adjustments when necessary. You will also receive guidance on wearing, removing, and caring for your dentures.
Caring for Your Dentures
Clean your dentures daily using appropriate denture-cleaning methods.
Handle them carefully to prevent damage.
Follow your dentist’s instructions regarding overnight wear and soaking.
Keep your gums, tongue, and remaining natural teeth clean.
Attend regular dental appointments to check the fit and condition of your dentures.
Dentures do not last forever. Changes in your gums, jawbone, and denture materials may affect their fit over time. Regular dental reviews can help identify when adjustment, relining, or replacement may be required.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get dentures?
The timeline varies depending on the type of denture and your individual treatment needs. Conventional dentures generally require several appointments for impressions, try-ins, fabrication, fitting, and adjustments.
Will dentures feel strange at first?
It is common for new dentures to feel unfamiliar initially. You may experience mild soreness, increased saliva, or temporary changes in speech while your mouth adjusts. These concerns generally improve with practice and appropriate adjustments.
How long do dentures last?
The lifespan varies depending on the denture material, oral changes, daily use, and care. Dentures may eventually require adjustment, relining, or replacement as your mouth changes over time. Regular dental check-ups help maintain a comfortable fit.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
Dentures can help restore chewing ability, but adapting to eating with new dentures takes time. Starting with softer foods and gradually introducing firmer foods can make the transition easier.
Can dentures improve my speech?
Replacing missing teeth can help improve speech, although some people may initially notice changes in pronunciation. Practice and regular use generally help you adapt.
Are implant-supported dentures better than conventional dentures?
Implant-supported dentures can provide greater stability for suitable patients. However, they require adequate bone support and surgical implant placement. Your dentist can discuss whether this option is appropriate for you.
Do I need to remove my dentures at night?
Whether dentures should be removed overnight depends on your individual situation and your dentist’s recommendation. Removing them when advised allows the oral tissues to rest and makes cleaning easier.
