Minimize the # of Visits for Your Dentures!
When starting the journey with new dentures, you can come to our office for 4 full hours, during which we will do your consultation, take the preliminary records/measurements, and do the fitting, lab work, and re-sizing. This will allow us to offer 2-3 appointments instead of 4-5.
Since we have the whole office to ourselves, you can comfortably wait here while enjoying free access to Wi-Fi & chilled water. With a well-equipped on-site laboratory in place, there will be minimal back and forth for you, as we will do the moulding of the prototype and readjustment while you are here.
Bridge the Gap with Partial Dentures in Calgary
If you are only missing one or a few teeth, a partial denture, or bridge, could be the answer! At Swiss Denture Clinic, we provide our patients with partial dentures in Calgary, including a first consultation and a dental impressions appointment followed by a fitting appointment. Afterward, the patient can start using the prosthesis and return for final adjustments.
Most patients use temporary or long-term partial dentures, depending on their needs. Temporary acrylic dentures can be used before a surgery or during the healing period after teeth extractions, to be replaced with permanent ones once the healing is complete. Temporary partial dentures can be worn for up to 2 years. On the other hand, with good care and annual checkups, long-term partial dentures with metal frameworks can be used for up to 5 to 7 years.
Our clinic offers a wide range of removable partial dentures in Calgary, typically made of replacement teeth attached to a gum-coloured plastic base, which can be attached by a metal framework that holds the denture in place in the mouth. A partial denture may have a metal framework and clasps that connect to your remaining natural teeth, or they can have other connectors that are more natural looking. In some cases, a removable partial denture is made to attach to your natural teeth with devices called precision attachments.
We also offer implant-supported partial dentures, which are sometimes recommended to give extra support to an unstable lower jaw prostheses.
5 Signs You May Need Partial Dentures
Are you confused about whether you need partial dentures or not? Below we have mentioned some important symptoms that will help you understand if you need partial dentures,
No dental visits
It is highly recommended to visit your trusted dentist at least twice a year. Early detection of tooth decay or damaged gum may save you from tooth extraction and partial denture.
Bleeding gums
There is a high possibility of tooth extraction if your gums are swollen, bleeding or highly sensitive due to severe gum infection. Once your teeth are extracted, the need for a partial denture will arise.
A wide gap between your teeth
Severe gum infection can result in bone loss which can shift your teeth or widen the gap between your teeth. If it is not appropriately treated, you may undergo tooth extraction, after which partial dentures will be needed.
Difficulty in eating
Missing teeth can make it complex to chew hard foods and hugely impact your speech. A partial denture can help you restore your smile and confidence.
Severe toothache
If you suffer from severe toothache, it may result from a damaged or infected tooth. However, if the situation is detected quickly, it can save your tooth from being extracted.
