Custom Dentures in Leduc
Our dentures are crafted to fit comfortably, feel natural, and improve your ability to speak and eat with confidence. We also offer denture repairs and relines to help maintain a secure, irritation-free fit over time.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
If you’ve lost multiple teeth or are struggling with chewing, speaking, or smiling with confidence, dentures may be the solution. In fact, around 25% of adults over 65 have lost all of their teeth, and many rely on dentures to restore their smile.
You may be a strong candidate for dentures if you:
- Need to replace many or all of your teeth.
- Don’t have dry mouth or tobacco habits that can interfere with denture comfort.
- Have sufficient jawbone (our Leduc dentists can help assess and support this).
- Are committed to good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
Dentures can restore both function and appearance, letting you smile confidently and eat comfortably again.
Denture Care Tips to Keep Your Smile Healthy
Maintaining your dentures properly is key to their longevity, comfort, and appearance. Just like natural teeth, dentures need daily care and regular checkups.
Essential denture care tips:
- Remove at night to let your mouth rest and prevent irritation.
- Soak in warm water or denture solution (never hot water or anything that damages metal).
- Always store in water when not in use to avoid warping.
- Clean gums and mouth daily to prevent infection and ensure a snug fit.
- Use a soft brush or cloth to clean both your dentures and any remaining natural teeth.
During routine visits at our Leduc office, we’ll check your fit and oral health to ensure your dentures continue to function comfortably and look great.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there other options for missing teeth?
Yes! Dental bridges can fill gaps caused by one to three missing teeth, while dental implants are a durable option for any number of missing teeth. Implants typically require a higher initial investment and specific health criteria for candidacy.
How long do dentures last?
With proper care, dentures typically last between 5 to 10 years. Your mouth changes over time, so even with routine maintenance, you may need to get refitted for new dentures eventually.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
Though you can wear dentures to bed, it’s recommended to remove them overnight. This gives your gums a break and allows you to properly clean your mouth and any remaining natural teeth.
How do I know if my dentures fit correctly?
What foods should I avoid with dentures?
After the initial adjustment period, you should be able to enjoy most foods. However, it’s wise to limit hard or sticky foods like caramel, carrot sticks, or tough meats, as well as small-particle foods like popcorn or seeded crackers, which can cause irritation or dislodge your dentures.
How often should I replace my dentures?
