Reasons for Getting Dentures
Dentures can help restore function and appearance when several or all teeth are missing. Depending on your needs, complete or partial dentures may be recommended.
Replace Missing Teeth
Dentures can replace several missing teeth or an entire upper or lower arch to restore your smile and oral function.
Improve Chewing
Replacing missing teeth can make it easier to bite and chew a wider variety of foods more comfortably.
Support Clearer Speech
Teeth help form certain sounds, so replacing missing teeth may help improve pronunciation and make speech feel more natural.
Restore Facial Support
Dentures can help support the lips and cheeks when significant tooth loss has affected the natural contours of your face.
Improve Smile Confidence
Replacing missing teeth can help you feel more comfortable when smiling, speaking, eating, and interacting with others.
Complete Dentures
These dentures are often used for older patients or someone who’s suffered serious dental trauma and is missing all teeth. Complete dentures come in two varieties: conventional and immediate.
Conventional dentures: These dentures are made once the patient’s teeth have been removed and the mouth has recovered. The patient will have to stay with no teeth for about 4 to 6 weeks until the gum heals.
Immediate dentures: These dentures are created specifically for the patient in advance as their teeth are being removed. This ensures that the patient doesn’t have to stay with no teeth while the mouth heals. The only drawback is that the patient’s dentures may have to be adjusted when the gum tissues shrink and heal.
Partial dentures
If the patient is missing several teeth but not all of them, partial dentures are used to replace the missing teeth. They help to prevent the remaining natural teeth from shifting out of place.
Dentures are meant to replace natural teeth. That’s why they’re designed to be very strong and long-lasting. They are also prone to normal wear and tear. Your dental clinic may also repair, readjust or remake the dentures over time.
The Process of Getting Dentures
Getting dentures usually takes several appointments because each set is customized to fit your mouth, bite, and appearance.
Consultation & Impressions
Your dentist examines your mouth and takes impressions and measurements of your gums and jaw to help create your custom dentures.
Try-In & Fit Check
A try-in appointment allows your dentist to check the fit, bite, shape, and appearance before the final dentures are completed.
Final Denture Placement
Once your dentures are ready, your dentist checks how they fit and function and makes adjustments to improve comfort.
Adjusting to New Dentures
New dentures may feel unfamiliar at first. Mild soreness, increased saliva, or temporary changes in speaking and chewing can occur while your mouth adjusts.
Caring for Your Dentures
Daily cleaning, good oral hygiene, and regular dental check-ups help maintain your dentures and support the health of your gums and mouth.

How much do dentures cost in North York?
The cost of dentures depends on the type of denture you need, the materials used, the number of teeth being replaced, and whether additional dental treatment is required. After examining your mouth, your dentist can provide a personalized treatment plan and cost estimate.
What is the difference between complete and partial dentures?
Complete dentures replace all teeth in the upper or lower arch, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate option based on the number and location of your missing teeth.
How long does it take to get used to new dentures?
New dentures often feel unfamiliar during the first few weeks. Mild soreness, increased saliva, and temporary changes in chewing or speaking can occur while your gums and facial muscles adjust. Follow-up adjustments can help improve comfort and fit.
How long do dentures last?
Dentures can last for several years with proper care, but the shape of your gums and jaw can change over time. Because of these changes and normal wear, dentures may eventually need adjustment, relining, repair, or replacement.
Are dentures covered by dental insurance or CDCP?
Coverage varies depending on your insurance plan, eligibility, the type of denture, and applicable frequency or authorization requirements. Our team can help review your available benefits before treatment.
