Dentures and implant-supported Dentures

Dentures and implant-supported Dentures

If you’re missing teeth, consider dentures as a quick and easy solution to restore your smile.

At Barrhaven Bright Smile Dental Clinic, we provide full and partial dentures to replace missing teeth. These processes utilize your existing teeth and bones to support the prosthetic devices, improving your smile and restoring functions like chewing and speech.

Dentures are typically made of acrylic resin and sometimes metal for structural support. They can be easily removed for cleaning and should not be worn overnight.

Alternatively, an implant-supported denture attaches to implants for support, unlike a regular denture that rests on the gums. This option is suitable when a person lacks natural teeth but has enough jawbone to support implants. Special attachments on the implant-supported denture snap onto attachments on the implants, providing stability. This option is available for both the upper and lower jaw.

The choice between a permanent solution or a removable denture depends on your current oral health and the condition of your teeth.

To determine if dentures are the right choice for you, reach out to Barrhaven Bright Smile Dental.
