Dentures in Newmarket
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth — full dentures when all teeth in an arch are missing, and partial dentures when some natural teeth remain. At Eagle Family Dentistry in Newmarket, dentures are planned after an examination of your gums, bone and remaining teeth, and fitted over a series of appointments so they sit securely and work with your bite. Call (905) 836-6111 to book an assessment.

Dentures in Newmarket: Replacing Missing Teeth
Dentures in Newmarket can replace several missing teeth, or all the teeth in an arch. A denture is a removable set of teeth on a base that rests over the gums, shaped to fit your mouth and your bite. At Eagle Family Dentistry, we first check your gums, bone and any remaining teeth. Then we explain whether a denture is a suitable option for you — and whether your teeth can be preserved instead.
When dentures are planned, impressions and bite records are taken so the denture sits securely and works with your bite. Missing teeth can make eating and speaking harder, and can change the shape of your face over time. The teeth beside a gap can also drift out of place. Replacing missing teeth helps keep your bite working and supports the natural shape of your face.
If you are covered by the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), please tell us when you book. For dentures, CDCP coverage follows the program’s rules and may need preauthorization. It may not match our clinic’s full fee, so we will explain any difference before treatment begins. Standard complete dentures generally do not require CDCP preauthorization. Initial placements of partial dentures, complete overdentures (including immediate overdentures), and complete dentures with long-term soft liners require preauthorization. Call us at (905) 836-6111 to arrange an assessment.
Types of Dentures
A denture works best when it is matched to your mouth and to what you need it to do. That is why dentures in Newmarket start with a careful assessment at Eagle Family Dentistry. We check the health of your gums, the shape of your jaw, and any remaining teeth, and how your teeth meet when you bite. If a remaining tooth is weak, or gum disease is present, we explain what should be treated first.
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace a complete upper or lower arch, when all the teeth in that arch are missing.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures fill gaps while your remaining natural teeth stay in place. They typically clasp onto neighbouring teeth for support.
Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures are made in advance and placed the same day teeth are removed, so you are not without teeth during healing. They are adjusted and relined as your gums change shape.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures snap onto implants for added stability. If you would like to know more about this option, read about dental implants.
A complete, healthy smile helps you eat, speak, and smile with confidence. With dentures in Newmarket, our aim is a denture that fits well, looks natural next to your other teeth, and is easy for you to clean. We explain each step in plain language before treatment begins, so you know what to expect at every visit.
When Should You Consider Dentures?
Dentures in Newmarket may be an option when several teeth, or all the teeth in an arch, are missing. Teeth can be lost through gum disease or decay, or when a tooth cannot be restored. Missing teeth can change how you chew and speak, and a denture that no longer fits can make eating uncomfortable. The signs below are worth discussing at your visit.
- Several teeth, or all the teeth in an arch, are missing
- Teeth that cannot be restored need replacing
- Missing teeth make eating or speaking difficult
- An existing denture is loose, worn or uncomfortable
The right choice depends on the health of your gums, bone and any remaining teeth. That is why we start with a full dental exam. We explain what we find, then outline the choices in plain language. If you have questions about dentures in Newmarket, call us at (905) 836-6111.
What Happens During the Denture Process, and How Many Visits Will I Need?
Dentures are made over several appointments. At the consultation, we examine your gums, bone and any remaining teeth, and take impressions and bite records. At a try-in, we check the fit, shape and shade with you before the denture is finished. At delivery, we fit the denture and make adjustments. Follow-up visits are part of the process, and sore-spot adjustments in the first weeks are normal.
Dentures or Implants?
Dentures are removable and do not involve surgery. A denture rests over the gums and can be taken out for cleaning and at night. For many people, that simplicity is part of the appeal.
Implants are fixed in place and involve a surgical phase, with the replacement held by a post in the jaw. To compare the two options in more detail, see our guide to dental implants vs. dentures.
Caring for Your Dentures
Clean your dentures daily, and remove them at night unless we advise otherwise. Handle them over a soft surface, such as a folded towel or a sink filled with water, and keep them moist when they are not in your mouth. Come in for regular checkups so we can catch changes in fit early — your gums and bone change over time, and relines are a normal part of denture life.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures in Newmarket
Patients often ask the questions below before they decide. The answers explain, in plain language, who dentures may suit, how fitting works, and how to care for dentures at home.
Who is a good candidate for dentures?
Anyone missing several or all teeth in an arch whose gums and bone can support a denture. The assessment confirms which type fits your situation.
What happens during the denture process, and how many visits will I need?
Most dentures take several appointments: examination, impressions, a try-in to check fit and appearance, delivery, and follow-up adjustments.
How do I care for dentures, and how long can they last?
Clean them daily, store them moist, and come in for regular checks. With care, a set can serve for years, though relines or replacement become necessary as your mouth changes.
Will dentures change how I eat or speak?
There is an adjustment period: start with soft foods cut small, and practise reading aloud. Most patients adapt within a few weeks as the mouth and tongue adjust.
What is the difference between full, partial and immediate dentures?
Full dentures replace a whole arch; partials fill gaps between remaining teeth; immediate dentures are placed the same day teeth are removed and adjusted during healing.
Are dentures covered by the CDCP, and what should I ask at my consultation?
The CDCP covers dentures for eligible members under its rules, often with preauthorization. Ask the team to confirm your eligibility and what your plan or program covers before treatment begins.
