Having well-fitted and functioning dentures can significantly enhance your quality of life by enabling you to eat, speak, and smile with ease and confidence. However, over time, your dentures may lose their fit and function due to factors such as wear and tear, changes in oral structure, and changes in denture material. If you have been wearing your dentures for five or more years, it may be time for a checkup. In this blog post, we will explain why you should have your existing dentures checked by our complete denturists at Community Denture Centre in Penticton or Oliver.

Importance of regular denture checkups

Regular checkups of your existing dentures are essential to maintain their fit and function and ensure your continued oral health. Our denturists will examine your dentures, your mouth, and your oral tissues to detect any changes and determine if any adjustments or repairs are needed. By diagnosing and addressing problems early, we can prevent further damage and discomfort and prolong the life of your dentures.

Signs that your dentures need attention

Even if you do not experience pain or discomfort, there are some signs that your dentures may need attention. These include:
  • Loose fit or slipping out of your mouth
  • Difficulty chewing or biting
  • Sore spots or irritation on your gums or oral tissues
  • Changes in your bite or facial appearance
  • Cracks, chips, or stains on your dentures
If you notice any of these signs, or if it has been more than five years since you had your dentures checked, please contact us to schedule an appointment.

Our denture checkup process

At Community Denture Centre, we provide a comprehensive and free consultation to check your existing dentures. Our denturists have over 70 years of combined experience and use state-of-the-art technology and materials to ensure the best possible outcomes. Our checkup process includes:
  • A thorough examination of your dentures, mouth, and oral tissues
  • A review of your medical and dental history
  • A discussion of your denture goals and concerns
  • A recommendation for any necessary adjustments or repairs
  • An estimate of the cost and timeframe for the recommended services

Bring in 2024 with a Great Smile

Bring in 2024 with a Great Smile

The beginning of a new year marks a time of renewal, reflection and hope. It presents an opportunity for new beginnings, and for people to set a new course for their personal and professional lives. And what better way to bring in 2024 than with a great smile? As one of the leading denture clinics in the South Okanagan, Community Denture Centre has been providing patients with top-quality denture services for years. Our skilled team is dedicated to restoring your smile to its natural beauty by providing personalized services that cater to your specific needs.
Complete Dentures
Losing all your natural teeth can be quite challenging, but it shouldn’t deprive you of a beautiful smile. At Community Denture Centre, we offer complete dentures that are custom-made to fit your mouth comfortably. We use high-quality materials and advanced technology to ensure that you get the best possible fit and function.
Partial Dentures
If you have a few missing teeth, partial dentures can be an affordable and practical solution. Our partial dentures are made to fit the remaining teeth in your mouth, helping to restore your natural bite.
Immediate Dentures
With immediate dentures, you can have your teeth replaced in one day. After extracting your remaining teeth, we will create a set of dentures that will be ready for use on the same day. This means you can walk out of our clinic with a brand-new smile the day of your procedure.
Dentures Supported by Implants
Dentures supported by implants are a more stable and robust option for those who need complete or partial dentures. Implants are attached to the jawbone and provide a strong foundation for your dentures. This means you can eat, speak and laugh with confidence. Our team can help determine if implants are right for you.
Full and Partial Denture Relines
Dentures can become loose over time due to changes in bone structure or wear and tear. Relining your dentures can prevent discomfort or shifting and give you the stability you need to continue to enjoy all the foods you love.
Processed Soft Linings
Processed soft linings can help protect your gums if you have sensitive oral tissues. Our soft linings are made from silicone and are designed to provide comfort and stability to your dentures.

Denture Repairs
Accidents can happen, and when they do, we’re here to help. We understand that denture repairs are time-sensitive, which is why we offer same-day service in most cases.
Free Consultation
If you’re considering dentures but not sure if they’re right for you, come in for a free consultation. We’ll assess your situation and provide guidance on the best course of treatment.
In-House Lab
As a full-service denture clinic, we have an in-house lab that allows us to provide fast and efficient service. This means you’ll walk out of our clinic with a new smile in no time.
At Community Denture Centre, we’re committed to helping you achieve a healthy and natural-looking smile.

Santa’s Sparkling Smile: How He Keeps His Dentures Bright

Santa’s Sparkling Smile: How He Keeps His Dentures Bright

by | Dec 18, 2023 | Blog

We all know Santa Claus, the jolly, white-bearded bringer of gifts. But did you know that he also wears dentures? Yes, that’s right! And he trusts the Community Denture Centre in Penticton to keep them in tip-top shape. So, how does Santa keep his dentures bright and sparkling? In this blog post, we’ll spill the beans on his secret.
First and foremost, Santa maintains a strict oral hygiene regimen. He brushes his remaining teeth and dentures twice a day with a soft-bristled brush and non-abrasive toothpaste. He also flosses his teeth and rinses his mouth with antiseptic mouthwash. These habits prevent the buildup of plaque and harmful bacteria that can stain and damage his dentures.
In addition to these basic practices, Santa visits the Community Denture Centre regularly for professional cleanings and checkups. Our skilled denturists use ultrasonic technology to remove stubborn stains and buildup without damaging the denture surface. They also examine Santa’s gums and oral tissues for any signs of infection or disease that could affect his denture fit and comfort.
Being the sweet-toothed person that he is, Santa loves his candy canes, gingerbread cookies, and hot cocoa. But these treats can leave stubborn stains on his dentures if not cleaned properly. To avoid this, Santa rinses his mouth with water or brushes his dentures after eating sugary or acidic foods. He also avoids chewing on hard, sticky, or crunchy foods that can damage his dentures or dislodge them from his mouth.

Santa likes to keep his dentures fresh and odour-free, especially during his busy Christmas Eve ride. To achieve this, he soaks his dentures overnight in a solution of water and denture cleanser. He also avoids smoking and drinking alcohol, as these can leave unsavory smells on his dentures and mouth.
Finally, Santa has a great sense of humour and doesn’t take himself too seriously. He embraces his dentures as part of his unique personality and uses them to make children laugh and smile. He also knows that dentures are not just for seniors but for anyone who wants to enjoy a healthy, confident smile. That’s why he encourages everyone to visit the Community Denture Centre and experience the same quality care and attention that he receives.

Santa may be famous for his red suit and white beard, but his sparkling dentures are just as impressive. By following a simple daily routine of brushing, flossing, and soaking, and by visiting the Community Denture Centre for professional care, Santa keeps his dentures bright and beautiful. So, if you or someone you know wears dentures, remember Santa’s tips and make sure to maintain good oral hygiene and regular checkups. After all, a healthy, confident smile is the best gift you can give yourself.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from your friends at the Community Denture Centre.

How Much Do Dentures Cost? Everything You Need to Know

How Much Do Dentures Cost? Everything You Need to Know

by | Dec 7, 2023 | Blog

Dentures can be a life-changing solution for people with missing or damaged teeth. They can restore your smile, improve your oral health, and boost your confidence. However, dentures are not a one-size-fits-all solution, and the cost of dentures can be a major concern for many people. In this blog post, we will break down the factors that affect the cost of dentures and provide you with a clear idea of what you can expect to pay.
Material:
One of the main factors that affect the cost of dentures is the material they are made of. There are two types of denture materials: acrylic and porcelain. Acrylic dentures are often less expensive than porcelain ones because they are easier to fabricate and repair. However, porcelain dentures are more durable and lifelike, offering a more natural appearance.
Number of Teeth:
The number of teeth you need to be replaced will also impact the cost of dentures. If you require a full denture to replace all of your teeth, it will cost more than if you only need a partial denture. A full denture will require more materials, time, and expertise to create and fit properly.
Design & Fabrication:
The design and fabrication of your dentures will also influence the cost. Dentures that require a more customized design, specialized molds, or additional appointments to ensure a perfect fit will cost more than a standard denture. Additionally, if your dentures require repair or maintenance, this will add to the overall cost.

How Your Dentures Will Be Fixed:
Finally, the way your dentures will be fixed will also affect the overall cost. Dentures can be fixed in two ways: with clasps or with dental implants. Dental implants offer a more permanent solution than clasps and are often preferred by patients. However, they are also more expensive. If you require dentures fixed with dental implants, you can expect to pay a higher cost.
In conclusion, the cost of dentures can vary greatly depending on several factors, including the material, number of teeth, design and fabrication, and how your dentures will be fixed. However, no matter what type of dentures you choose, our commitment to providing quality, comfortable, and natural-looking tooth replacement solutions remains the same. At our practice in Penticton, we are dedicated to helping our patients achieve a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime. Please contact us today to learn more about our denture solutions and get a clear idea of what you can expect to pay.
