Dentures in West Vancouver
Depending on your dental needs, we offer the following Dentures:
Removable Dentures:
Removable dentures are the treatment of choice for many patients with missing teeth. The pink material is made from acrylic that resembles gums and the denture teeth are plastic or porcelain.
Implant-Supported Dentures:
With implant-supported dentures, bars or ball fixtures are attached to the patient’s mouth to offer greater support to the dentures.
Full Dentures:
Full dentures are for those who have lost all or most of their teeth.
Partial Dentures:
Removable partial dentures usually consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-coloured plastic bases, which are connected by metal framework. Removable partial dentures attach to your natural teeth with metal clasps or devices called precision attachments. Precision attachments are generally more aesthetic than metal clasps and they are nearly invisible. Crowns on natural teeth may improve the fit of a removable partial denture and are usually required with attachments. Dentures with precision attachments may cost more than those with metal clasps.
