Restorative Dentures
Missing teeth can affect chewing, speech and confidence. At Belman Dental Centre, serving Davisville, Eglinton and Midtown Toronto, we provide custom full, partial and overdentures. Treatment recommendations, timing and fees depend on an in‑office assessment with a general dentist.
Dentures are designed to replace missing teeth and can be tailored to your mouth, budget and lifestyle. Your dentist will discuss the advantages and limitations of each type during your consultation.
Common options include:
Your first visit starts with an oral exam and a review of your medical and dental history. We may take digital X‑rays and impressions or a 3D scan to record jaw relationships and the shape of your gums; then we’ll review possible designs and timelines so you know what to expect.
Dr. Noah Belman graduated from the University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry and completed postgraduate training with the Misch Implant Institute, The Pankey Institute and Spear Education. Verified practice technology includes digital X-rays and the iTero Element 3D scanner.
Daily cleaning and regular check‑ups keep dentures functioning and reduce the risk of oral irritation. Rinse dentures after meals, brush them gently with a soft brush and denture cleaner, and remove them at night to allow your tissues to rest.
Expect occasional adjustments or relines as the shape of your jaw and gums change. Your general dentist will manage routine care and can refer you for specialist services if a more complex restoration or implant support becomes appropriate.
Personalized Care
A conversation and clinical assessment are the best way to understand your options. People often ask about dentures when they are experiencing one or more of the following situations.
What to Expect
We start with a comprehensive oral exam, health history and, if needed, digital X‑rays or a 3D scan. This visit determines whether dentures are appropriate and whether any preparatory treatment, such as extractions or periodontal care, is needed.
Your dentist discusses denture types, materials, timelines and adjustments. Impressions or digital scans are taken to create a custom plan. If implants or specialist care are options, your general dentist will explain referrals or in‑office implant services.
Technicians create your dentures from the approved records. You’ll return for fittings to check fit, bite and appearance. Several short adjustment visits are common as we fine‑tune comfort and function.
Regular appointments ensure the fit remains good, and we perform relines or repairs as needed. Ongoing hygiene guidance helps protect oral tissues and any remaining natural teeth. Recommendations and timelines vary by patient.
Planning Your Care
Treatment costs for dentures vary depending on the type of prosthesis, materials chosen and any preparatory or restorative work required. We provide tailored treatment plan and fee information after a clinical assessment so you receive a clear, individualised plan.
Belman Dental Centre can discuss payment options and resources to help you understand out-of-pocket costs and how third‑party coverage or financing might apply. Final recommendations, timelines and fees depend on an in‑office assessment.
Good to Know
The lifespan of a denture depends on materials, wear and changes in jawbone and gum tissue. Many patients use dentures for several years, with repairs, relines or replacements recommended as fit and function change. Your dentist will advise when maintenance or renewal is appropriate.
Some speech changes are common during the adjustment period. With practice—speaking slowly, reading aloud and attending follow‑up visits for minor adjustments—most people regain natural speech patterns within a few weeks.
You can eat a wide range of foods, but it may take time to regain full chewing efficiency. Start with softer foods, cut items into smaller pieces and avoid very sticky or hard foods until you’re comfortable. Adhesives can help stability in some cases, but your dentist will advise what’s best for you.
Adjustments are common soon after delivery and may be needed later as tissues change. Plan for an initial series of short visits, then regular annual check‑ups. If dentures feel sore, loosened or cause sore spots, contact the office for an earlier review.
Implant‑retained overdentures can improve stability and comfort for many patients. Belman Dental Centre offers implant placement and restoration, and your dentist will review whether implant support is appropriate for you or whether a referral to a specialist is recommended.
