ABOUT

Emergency Denture Repair

A broken denture, much like broken eyeglasses, is an emergency that needs immediate attention. Yet, many patients try to manage chipped, cracked, or broken dentures far longer than necessary. Some would rather endure discomfort than risk sending their dentures away for an extended repair, while others worry about the cost.

Good news: Dentures Direct now offers same-day emergency denture repairs in Toronto, usually within about an hour. Since all work is done right in our on-site lab, we don’t need to outsource labor or parts, which helps keep costs down for you.

Same-Day Denture Repair Services

Denture repairs in about an hour? Yes! While you unwind at a nearby café or relax in our comfortable waiting room, our repair team can fix cracked or fractured dentures, do relines, repair or replace artificial teeth, and remove stains. Our repair procedures include:

Bone and/or tooth loss

Solution: Relining of the denture. An impression of your mouth is made with the denture in place, and new acrylic material is added to correct the fit.

Broken, weakened or old denture base

Solution: Rebase. The existing teeth remain in the same place, but the entire acrylic base material is replaced.

Cracked denture

Solution: The cracks are treated so new acrylic can be added; the repaired base is cured, finished and polished

Tooth has fallen off and is lost

Solution: A new tooth is matched and ground, the replacement area is ground, and the tooth is mechanically attached. Acrylic is added to replace the gum.

Tooth needs to be added on a partial

Solution: A tooth is chosen to match the remaining teeth, ground, and a mechanical retention added. Pink acrylic is added to replace the gum.

With decades of combined experience in dentures and dental implants, our team provides some of the best emergency denture repairs in Toronto. Most repairs can be completed in about an hour in our full-service lab, so you can pick up your dentures quickly and get back to your day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions
Is broken denture an emergency?
In most situations, when a denture breaks, it is considered a dental emergency. Luckily, at Dentures Direct Denture Implant Clinic in Toronto, we offer same-date denture repairs to get you back to eating and smiling confidently as quickly as possible.
How do you temporarily fix dentures?
If a part of your dentures breaks off, you can glue it back onto the denture with a special material found in a denture repair kit. However, this denture fix is temporary, and the repaired denture won’t last long. For a permanent denture repair, we recommend collecting all the denture pieces and bringing them to your denturist in Toronto.
How can I fix my dentures at home if they break in half?

If your dentures break in half, you may try attaching them together with a bonding material found in a denture repair kit. Note that you should never use other adhesives or glue products, as they are not designed for dental appliances and contain toxic substances.

Even if you manage to attach the broken pieces together, keep in mind that the fixed denture won’t last: you should still visit Dentures Direct to get your denture permanently repaired as soon as possible.

Can dentures break while eating?
While it isn’t typical for dentures to break while eating suitable foods, hard-to-chew foods like steak or other meats can, indeed, break dentures and damage either the acrylic base or the artificial teeth. In addition, the loss of jawbone over time may make the dentures more likely to fracture while eating.
