Types of Dentures

Full (complete) dentures replace all teeth in an arch. Made from acrylic with realistic-looking teeth, they sit on the gums (and in the case of upper dentures, the palate).

Partial dentures replace some missing teeth and clip onto remaining natural teeth using metal or flexible clasps. They’re a more affordable alternative to bridges or implants for multiple missing teeth.

Implant-supported dentures snap onto 2–6 dental implants, giving you the security of fixed teeth with the simplicity of removable cleaning. They don’t slip when you eat. See our implant-supported dentures guide.

Immediate dentures are placed the same day teeth are extracted, so you never go without teeth. They’re refit a few months later once gums heal.

The Denture Process

  1. Consultation & impressions. We assess your mouth and take detailed impressions or digital scans.
  2. Bite registration. We capture how your jaws align so the dentures function comfortably.
  3. Try-in. A wax try-in lets you see and approve the look before final fabrication.
  4. Final placement. Adjustments ensure the fit is comfortable and stable.
  5. Follow-up adjustments. 1–2 weeks later we tweak any sore spots and confirm comfort.

Most cases take 4–6 weeks from start to finish.

Dentures vs. Implants vs. Bridges

Dentures cost the least and can replace many teeth at once, but they’re removable and require adjustment over time as the bone shape changes. Implants are the most permanent, natural-feeling option but cost more upfront. Bridges work for a small number of missing teeth in a row. Our comparison guide covers cost, longevity, and patient experience for each.

Living with Dentures

Modern dentures look very natural and most people adapt within a few weeks. Eating soft foods first, practicing speech, and using a small amount of denture adhesive (if needed) eases the transition. Clean dentures daily, soak overnight, and bring them in for periodic adjustment as your gums change shape over time.

Cost & Insurance

Full denture (one arch): $1,500–$2,800. Partial denture: $1,200–$2,200. Implant-supported denture: $5,000–$15,000+ depending on number of implants. Most insurance plans cover dentures as a major restoration (50–80%). CDCP coverage available for eligible patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will dentures look natural?

Yes. We match the shade and shape of teeth to your face. Modern materials are far more lifelike than the dentures of past generations.

Will I be able to eat normally?

After a few weeks of practice, most patients eat most foods comfortably. Implant-supported dentures handle nearly all foods, including steak and apples.

Do dentures need to be replaced?

Yes — typically every 5–10 years as the gum and bone shape change. Relines and rebases can extend their life.

Will they slip?

Conventional dentures may shift, especially the lower one. A small amount of adhesive helps. Implant-supported dentures don’t slip.

Can I sleep with dentures in?

We recommend taking them out at night to let your gums rest and to clean the dentures thoroughly.
