Full (Complete) Dentures in Toronto

Your smile is a big part of your life. If you are missing teeth, you may not feel comfortable smiling or laughing in social situations. Your ability to eat and talk is impacted as well. Tooth loss can be debilitating in many ways. Complete dentures in Toronto are a versatile solution to this problem, and they can restore your smile right away.
Located in Toronto, Dentures Direct offers denture treatment for those who have lost their permanent teeth. Without your teeth, your jaw can lose strength, and your remaining teeth can shift around. Dentures prevent these issues and give you back your ability to smile and talk as you did before.

What Are Complete Dentures in Toronto?

Complete, or full, dentures are dental prosthesis that replaces all of the teeth in the mouth, rather than just several teeth. Conventional complete dentures are removable: they can be worn during the day to restore chewing and speaking ability but should be stored in water or denture solution overnight. Most commonly, full dentures are made from acrylic material.
While in use, complete dentures will suction your gums and stay in place while you talk, eat, or laugh. When you need to clean them, they can be removed entirely. This can be an excellent option for those not eligible for dental implants.

Benefits of Complete Dentures

The most obvious benefit of choosing dentures is your brand-new smile. No one will see the gaps in your mouth anymore, and this can restore your self-confidence and help you feel more comfortable at any social gathering that you choose to attend. However, there are more benefits beneath the surface.

As mentioned, tooth loss can be damaging to your jaw and mouth. When you are missing teeth, you are missing support for your lower face. This can cause your jawbone to dwindle and affect the health of your gums and remaining teeth. Dentures can restore your face structure and offer support to your teeth and jaw, so that your mouth remains healthy and strong for a long time.

Types of Complete Dentures

Conventional full-mouth dentures come in different types and materials to suit patients with different budgets. Let us take a closer look at the types of complete dentures offered at our Toronto denture clinic.

Economy Dentures

Economy dentures are often the preferred choice for patients looking for cheap dentures in Toronto, Ontario. Such dentures cost less than more advanced options but may not be as comfortable or fit as well.

While economy dentures may seem more affordable upfront, the costs will add up over the years, as this simple denture solution often requires regular relining and readjustments.

Premium Dentures

As the name suggests, premium dentures are a higher-quality version of removable full dentures. Premium dentures cost more but are created to fit perfectly and comfortably within the patient’s mouth.

In addition, with premium dentures, the acrylic artificial teeth are customized with various types of pigmentation to make teeth look as natural as possible. These high-quality dentures fit patients perfectly, look great, and last longer without the need for frequent refitting or relining.

Full Dentures in Toronto: Parts and Accessories

Complete dentures in Toronto – whether economy or premium – are a great solution for patients missing all or most of their teeth. Let’s take a closer look at how different denture parts work together to restore the eating and talking function.

Artificial Teeth and Denture Base

Any denture consists of two main parts: the denture base and artificial teeth attached to it. The denture base is meant to restore the defective soft and hard tissues and act as a foundation for artificial teeth. The artificial teeth, in turn, restore the function of natural teeth, allowing the patient to bite, chew, and speak as they did before tooth extraction. Artificial teeth also restore a beautiful smile by mimicking the appearance of natural teeth.

Full Upper and Full Lower Denture

With full-mouth dentures, your dental prosthesis will consist of two separate parts: a full upper denture and a full lower denture. Because your mouth is slightly different in the lower and upper parts of the jaw, these two denture parts will differ slightly.

As such, the full upper denture, also known as the maxillary arch, will look like a plate covering the roof of the mouth. At the same time, the full lower denture will have a horse-shoe shape to rest comfortably on the gum and bone tissues.

Denture Adhesive

While denture adhesive is technically not a part of full dentures, it is a must-have item that you would need to use on a daily basis when wearing your dentures. Because complete dentures are removable, they may slide and slip as you talk or eat, – this is where denture adhesive comes in. By applying the adhesive under the denture, you can eat and speak confidently, without worrying that your dentures will fall out of place.

Disadvantages of Full Dentures

As with any other teeth replacement option, complete dentures have certain disadvantages:

  • The retention for lower dentures declines over time.
  • Complete dentures require maintenance like relines and repairs.
  • Without the use of denture adhesives, dentures can slip out of place when eating or speaking.

If you are looking for a more stable and long-lasting alternative, implant-retained dentures and non-removable permanent dentures  in Toronto can be great options for you. Supported by titanium implants inserted into the jawbone, removable implant-retained and non-removable implant-supported dentures do not require frequent relines and will never fall out of place.

Complete Dentures FAQ

Both overdentures and complete dentures are meant to replace a full mouth of teeth. In addition, both overdentures and complete dentures are removable, meaning that you would have to take them out of your mouth for cleaning.

The main difference between overdentures and complete dentures is that overdentures are fastened to dental implants, which are permanently inserted into the patient’s jawbone. Full dentures, on the other hand, are simply placed in the mouth – with or without denture adhesive.

Premium dentures are considerably more comfortable than economy dentures. Made with higher-quality materials and customized to fit the patient’s mouth perfectly, premium dentures provide superior function and comfort.

Complete dentures for seniors can cost anywhere from $650 to several thousand dollars per arch. The exact cost of the dentures will depend on the type of dentures, the materials used, and the pre-existing condition of your oral tissues.
