Complete and Partial Dentures in Downtown Vancouver
Losing teeth can affect your confidence, your ability to eat comfortably, and the overall appearance of your smile. At O2 Dental, we provide complete and partial dentures in Downtown Vancouver as a reliable, natural-looking solution for patients who have lost some or all of their teeth. Our team works closely with each patient to create a well-fitting, comfortable restoration that suits their individual needs. We are accepting new patients from Downtown Vancouver, Coal Harbour, the West End, and Yaletown.
What Are Complete and Partial Dentures?
There are two main types of removable tooth replacement options available at O2 Dental.
Complete Dentures
A complete set is used when all teeth in the upper or lower jaw, or both, are missing. They sit on the gum tissue and are custom-made to fit the shape of your mouth. Modern options are designed to look natural and fit comfortably, restoring both the appearance and function of your smile.
Partial Dentures
A partial set is used when some natural teeth remain. They clip onto existing teeth and fill in the gaps left by missing ones. As well as improving your smile, they help prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position over time.
Why Choose Dentures
Many patients also combine tooth replacement with other cosmetic treatments as part of a complete smile makeover.
Restored Appearance
Missing teeth can cause the face to appear sunken or aged. A well-fitted restoration helps support the facial structure and restores a more natural appearance, giving you renewed confidence in how you look and smile.
Improved Eating and Speaking
Missing teeth can make it difficult to chew certain foods or speak clearly. A properly fitted restoration allows you to eat a wider range of foods and speak with greater confidence in everyday situations.
Easy to Maintain
Unlike fixed restorations, removable options are straightforward to clean. They are taken out at night, brushed with a soft brush and mild cleaner, and stored in water or a recommended soaking solution to maintain their shape.
A Cost-Effective Solution
Compared to other tooth replacement options such as dental implants, removable restorations are generally a more affordable option and can often be completed in a shorter timeframe.
The Denture Fitting Process
Consultation and Impressions
Your treatment begins with a consultation at our Downtown Vancouver clinic. Dr. Tehrani will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and take precise impressions of your mouth. These are used to create a restoration that fits accurately and comfortably.
Fitting and Adjustments
Once your restoration is ready, you will come in for a fitting appointment. Dr. Tehrani will check the fit, bite, and appearance, making any necessary adjustments to ensure comfort and function. Follow-up adjustments may also be made as you settle into wearing them.
Ongoing Care and Follow-Up
We recommend regular check-up appointments to monitor the fit of your restoration over time, as the shape of your gums can change. We are here to help with any adjustments or questions throughout your care journey.
Caring for Your Dentures
Proper care helps maintain the appearance and lifespan of your restoration. Remove and rinse them after eating, brush them daily with a soft-bristled brush, and soak them overnight in a cleaning solution or plain water. Avoid using hot water or abrasive cleaners, as these can cause warping or damage. Handle them carefully over a folded towel or basin of water when cleaning to avoid breakage if dropped.

Frequently Asked Questions — Dentures in Downtown Vancouver
The process typically takes several appointments over a few weeks. This includes a consultation, impressions, a fitting appointment, and any follow-up adjustments needed. Dr. Tehrani will give you a clear timeline at your first visit based on your specific situation.
Modern restorations are designed to closely match the appearance of natural teeth and gums. Dr. Tehrani takes care to select the right size, shape, and shade to complement your facial features and give you a natural-looking result.
With proper care, most removable restorations last between five and ten years before they may need to be replaced or relined. Regular check-up appointments help monitor the fit and condition over time.
Most patients are able to eat a wide range of foods comfortably once they have adjusted to their restoration. It is normal to start with softer foods in the first few weeks while you get used to the fit. Over time, most patients find they can eat most foods without difficulty.
