Are you looking for a comprehensive denture solution in Calgary? Although cheaper than denture implants, traditional dentures have some hidden costs you should know about.
Losing teeth, whether it is due to age, injury or periodontal disease, can be very worrisome. However, today, there are a wide range of denture solutions available to help improve your appearance and protect your oral health.

Working with our experienced & knowledgeable Calgary denturist can help ensure that you make an informed decision about which tooth replacement option is right for you.
Dentures are one of the most important dental investments you can make and deciding upon this tooth replacement option is a lifetime commitment that will influence your appearance and comfort for the next 10 years or more.
Prior to making a choice, it’s important to book a consultation with your denturist so they can walk you through all the facts of having full/partial dentures.
Here are some of the hidden costs of opting for traditional dentures:

Dental implants are a great alternative if you want to avoid any unnecessary movement. Because they integrate into your jawbone, they are more secure than dentures, leading to greater comfort and a higher quality of life.
2. Health Cost

3. Convenience Cost
If you decide on dentures as a tooth replacement option, you must be prepared to follow the comprehensive care-instructions provided by your denturist. These may include:
Failing to properly care for your dentures can lead to serious oral health issues, damaging your gums and remaining teeth.
If you don’t believe you are ready for this commitment, it’s best to talk to your denturist about other alternatives, including denture implants, which require less every-day care.
