Stuart Denture Clinic

Stuart Denture Clinic offers several denture options to meet different oral health, lifestyle, and functional needs. These include complete dentures for replacing a full arch of missing teeth, partial dentures for replacing one or more missing teeth, and immediate dentures for patients undergoing dental extractions. We also provide denture repairs, denture relines, implant-supported denture options, and custom mouth guards. Our Calgary denture team can discuss your needs and help you understand which options may be appropriate for you.

The right treatment depends on the condition, fit, and function of your current dentures. Cracks, chips, or other physical damage may require a denture repair, while dentures that have become loose or uncomfortable as your mouth changes may benefit from a reline. In some cases, older or significantly damaged dentures may need to be replaced. Rather than attempting to adjust or repair dentures at home, schedule an assessment at our Calgary denture clinic so we can examine them and recommend an appropriate solution.

Dentures may need to be relined when they no longer fit as comfortably or securely as they once did. You may notice your dentures becoming loose, slipping while you eat or speak, creating pressure points, or causing irritation along the gums. Because your gums and supporting tissues naturally change over time, a denturist can assess the fit and determine whether a reline is appropriate.

Your mouth does not remain exactly the same after dentures are made. Changes to the gums, jawbone, supporting tissues, weight, health, and other factors can gradually affect how your dentures fit. As these changes occur, a denture that previously felt secure may begin moving or slipping. A denture reline may help adapt the fitting surface to the current shape of your mouth.

Both soft and hard relines are intended to improve how an existing denture fits against the gums, but they use different materials. A soft reline uses a more cushioned material and may be considered for patients with tender or sensitive gums. A hard reline uses firmer acrylic material. Your denturist can assess your mouth and dentures to determine which option is appropriate.
