What are dentures?

Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth. Complete dentures replace a full arch; partial dentures fill gaps between natural teeth. Implant-supported dentures snap onto implants for more stability.

Dentures: specialist or general dentist?

General dentists make most dentures. Prosthodontists specialise in complex replacements. In Canada, licensed denturists also make and fit dentures directly. Implant-supported dentures involve a surgeon or a dentist trained in implants.
