Missing teeth impact not only your self-esteem but your health as well. It's natural for our bones and teeth to weaken as we age, and other factors can contribute to losing a tooth here and there, but missing teeth should never be neglected.

We provide two types of dentures to help meet your needs:
The decision to get dentures is not one to take likely. We ensure a proper consultation, diagnosis and assessment are done with each patient before recommending your treatment. We want you to thrive, but that means ensuring we follow all the necessary steps to improve your oral health.
To receive dentures, we first need to prepare your teeth. Our friendly dentist will take X-rays and impressions of your teeth to ensure the proper fit of your dentures. These are used to create a mould that will be transformed into your final denture set.
The entire process can take up to a few sessions but will be well worth the wait. At your final appointment, we'll fit your dentures and make adjustments. With your final set in place, you will be free to smile, laugh and live life to the fullest again.
Your new dentures may initially feel strange as they settle into your mouth. In addition, you may experience some extra saliva and irritation as your mouth and tongue learn to adjust, but this will improve over time.
