Dentures Near You

Modern dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth and surrounding gum tissue. They can help you chew more comfortably, speak more clearly, and restore the appearance of your smile. Your dentist may suggest partial dentures, complete dentures, or an implant-supported option, depending on the number of missing teeth.

Every mouth is different. A clinical exam is needed to check your gums, remaining teeth, bite, and jaw before a treatment plan is recommended.

What are dentures?

Dentures are detachable or implant-supported dental appliances used to replace lost teeth. They can replace a few teeth, every tooth in either the lower or upper arch, or both arches. They are made to fit your mouth.

A proper fit matters. Dentures that feel loose, cause sore spots, or make eating difficult may need an adjustment, reline, repair, or replacement.

Who may need dentures?

Dentures may be considered when you have lost some or all of your natural teeth. Tooth loss can result from:

  • Gum disease
  • Advanced tooth decay
  • Injury or accident
  • Teeth that cannot be restored
Missing teeth can affect chewing, speech, facial support, and the position of remaining teeth. Regular dental checkups and cleaning can help identify decay and gum problems before more teeth are lost. If you already have missing teeth, our dentist in Fort McMurray can review your options and explain the benefits and limits of each therapy.

Benefits of implant-supported dentures

Implant-supported dentures connect to dental implants placed in the jaw. Compared with conventional removable dentures, they may offer greater stability and reduce movement while eating or speaking.

Potential benefits include:

  • Improved stability
  • Less reliance on denture adhesive
  • Stronger chewing function
  • A more secure feel

Implant treatment is not right for everyone. Your dentist will consider your gum health, bone support, medical history, and treatment goals. Learn more about dental implants and All-on-4 dental implants at Morrison Dental.

Denture cleaning and maintenance

Daily cleaning helps remove food, plaque, and stains from dentures. It also helps protect your gums and any remaining natural teeth.

How to clean your dentures:

Remove and rinse them after meals when practical.

  • Brush every surface with a denture brush or soft-bristle toothbrush and mild soap or denture cleanser.
  • Do not use regular toothpaste or abrasive household cleaners, which can scratch the denture surface.
  • Soak removable dentures overnight as directed by your dentist. Use lukewarm water, not hot water.
  • Brush your gums, tongue, and remaining teeth before putting the dentures back in.

Contact the dental clinic if your dentures crack, loosen, or cause persistent soreness. Do not attempt a home repair.

Life with dentures

New dentures usually require an adjustment period. Cut food into smaller pieces, start with soft foods, and chew slowly on both sides. Speaking may feel different at first, but regular practice can help.

The fit can change over time as the gums and jaw change. Book an assessment if your dentures slip, click, rub, or make chewing painful. Ongoing adjustments and routine oral exams are important, even when your dentures still look fine.

Types of dentures in Fort McMurray, AB

The number of lost teeth, the state of your gums and remaining teeth, your comfort level, and your treatment objectives all influence the best choice.

Removable partial dentures

These replace one or multiple missing teeth and are usually held in place by clasps that connect to nearby natural teeth. You remove them for cleaning and, in most cases, at night.

Fixed partial dentures

Also known as dental bridges, fixed partial dentures are attached to natural teeth or implants. They cannot be removed at home and are cleaned while in place.

Complete dentures

Every tooth in the upper arch is replaced by complete dentures, lower arch, or both. Conventional complete dentures are made after the gums have healed. Immediate dentures may be placed after extractions and often need adjustments as the mouth heals.

Implant-supported dentures and All-on-4

For additional stability, implant-supported dentures fasten to dental implants. While some designs can be removed by the patient, others can only be repaired and removed by a dentist. All-on-4 uses four implants in one arch to support a full set of replacement teeth. Suitability depends on your bone, gum health, medical history, and treatment plan.

Questions people ask about dentures

How much is a full set of dentures in Fort McMurray, Alberta?

The cost depends on the type of denture, materials, laboratory work, extractions, and the number of fitting or adjustment visits required. Morrison Dental can provide a written estimate after an exam. Alberta fee guides list suggested fees, but each dentist sets their own fees.

The main factors are whether the dentures are conventional or immediate, the materials used, the condition of your mouth, and any treatment needed before the dentures are made. Ask whether your estimate includes the exam, impressions, laboratory work, placement, and follow-up adjustments.

There is no single average price that fits every patient. A personalised quote is more useful because the upper and lower dentures may require different materials, designs, or preparation. Book a consultation to receive an estimate based on your needs.

Yes. Options may include conventional complete dentures, immediate dentures placed after extractions, and implant-supported dentures. Your dentist will explain which choices are suitable after examining your mouth and reviewing your goals.

Book an adjustment whenever dentures become loose, click, cause sore spots, or make chewing difficult. Dentures are often reviewed for replacement around the five-year mark, but the timing varies based on wear, fit, and changes in the gums and jaw.
