Types Of Dentures
Our Vegreville and Smokey Lake Denture Clinics Offers A Variety Of Denture Options To Meet Your Individual Needs, Including Your Lifestyle Habits And Desired Outcome
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are a type of denture used to replace an entire arch of missing teeth. They can be placed on the top, bottom, or both arches. They are customized to every patient and will help restore your smile and function while feeling comfortable. We also offer guidance on types of full dentures based on your needs.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are used to replace gaps in your mouth caused by missing teeth. They tend to be made of a combination of metal and acrylic. A partial denture also helps prevent shifting or rotation of the surrounding teeth, which could disrupt your facial structure. We can help you explore dental partials types and determine which option fits your smile.
Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures are recommended for patients that are in the process of undergoing dental extractions. Before the extraction, we will take an impression and measurements of your teeth and gums. We will work with you on the desired colour, shape, and size of your new dentures.
Denture Repairs
When dentures become ill fitting, it is important to note that they do not improve on their own and you should never try to fix them yourself. You should only have your dentures repaired by a denturist to ensure they do not become worse and cause other issues in your mouth. If you need a quick denture fix, we encourage you to contact our clinic right away.
Denture Relines
Advancements in dental technology have allowed dentures to increase their longevity. It is because of these advancements that patients who suffer from sensitive gums can have their dentures relined. Dentures can become worn by overcleaning or simply because of overuse.
Dental Implants
In prior years, there were few options for dentures, such as traditional full dentures or partial dentures. Today, there are many options, including dental implants with removable dentures. Dental implants have a variety of benefits for patients due to their support structure in the jaw, and they act as natural anchors in the mouth.
Custom Mouth Guards
A mouth guard is a piece of material that helps prevent injuries to the lips, teeth, and gums. In instances when a patient regularly takes part in physical activity or grinds or clenches their teeth, it is crucial to wear a mouth guard as it creates a barrier between your teeth and any objects or force.
