Complete Dentures at Shen Dental in Vancouver

Complete dentures are a removable dental appliance designed to replace all missing teeth in either the upper (maxillary) or lower (mandibular) arch. They restore the ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently while supporting facial structures to prevent the sunken appearance often caused by tooth and gum loss.

Dentures are custom-crafted for each patient, ensuring a natural look and proper function. They can help improve quality of life by restoring essential oral functions and maintaining facial aesthetics.
