What Are Dentures?

Dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth and tissues. Dentures serve several important purposes for patients with missing teeth, including:

Designed to restore oral function and aesthetics.
Available as removable appliances for convenience and hygiene.
Can be combined with dental crowns, bridges, or veneers for improved fit and appearance.
Support facial structures and prevent sagging or changes in appearance caused by missing teeth.

Pristine Dental in Winnipeg creates dentures using precise measurements and patient-specific considerations to ensure optimal comfort and alignment.

Types of Dentures

During your visit to Pristine Dental in Winnipeg, our experienced dental team will evaluate your oral health and recommend the best denture option for you. We use precise digital scans of your jaw and teeth to create dentures that fit comfortably and function naturally.

We offer the following types of dentures:

Complete Dentures

Replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
Suitable for patients who have lost most or all of their natural teeth.
Restores both function and appearance, supporting lips and cheeks.
It can be conventional (made after teeth are removed) or immediate (placed immediately after extraction).

Partial Dentures

Replace one or more missing teeth while retaining the remaining natural teeth.
Typically attached to surrounding teeth with clasps or precision attachments.
It can be used in conjunction with crowns, bridges, or veneers to enhance stability and aesthetics.
Often recommended when patients still have healthy teeth that can support the appliance.

Full Dentures vs. Partial Dentures

The choice between full and partial dentures depends on the number of natural teeth remaining and their overall condition.

Full dentures are ideal when:

All teeth in an arch are missing or must be removed.
A complete restoration of the bite and smile is necessary.
The remaining teeth are too damaged to support long-term oral health.

Partial dentures are best when:

Several healthy teeth remain for support.
Preserving natural teeth is a priority.
Function and appearance can be restored without the need for extractions.

Both options improve chewing, speech, and appearance, but the better fit depends on your individual dental needs.

How to Care for Your Dentures

Proper care keeps your dentures looking their best and your mouth healthy. Even though dentures are artificial, plaque and tartar can still accumulate on them, leading to staining, bad breath, and potential gum issues.

Follow these daily care tips:

Remove and rinse your dentures after your meals to remove food debris.
Clean them daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and a non-abrasive denture cleanser.
Soak your dentures in warm water overnight to maintain their shape and give your gums a break.
Do not use hot water when cleaning your dentures. This could warp the material.

Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential even if you wear full dentures. Regular checkups at Pristine Dental help ensure a comfortable fit and long-lasting results.
