Dentures

Complete Dentures in Edmonton

A denture or a complete denture as it is often called, is an appliance that is inserted in the mouth, replaces natural teeth and provides support for the cheeks and lips.

Most often, because the dentures are no anchored in place, they are painful, inconvenient and unstable. This can make chewing foods difficult, limiting the foods that you once enjoyed.

By having as few as 2-4 implants placed you can greatly improve your dentures function and retention. To learn about implant placement and bone grafting, click here.
