About Dentures at Bow River Dental
Whether full or partial, our dentures are crafted for a comfortable fit and a confident smile. If you are looking for dentures in Calgary, Bow River Dental offers natural-looking complete and partial dentures with precision-fit comfort, repair and reline services and implant-supported options.
Dentures are part of our Restorative Dentistry services, and we welcome new patients of all ages.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and the gum tissue around them. Modern dentures are made from natural-looking materials and are shaped to match the contours of your mouth, so they look, feel and work far better than dentures of the past.
Well-fitted dentures help you chew, speak clearly and smile with confidence. They also support your cheeks and lips, which keeps your face looking fuller.
Types of Dentures We Offer
- Complete dentures. A full set that replaces all of the teeth in your upper jaw, lower jaw or both.
- Partial dentures. A removable appliance that fills the gaps when you still have some natural teeth, and helps keep those teeth from shifting.
- Implant-supported dentures. Dentures held in place by Dental Implants for extra stability and comfort.
We explain each option during your consultation so you can choose what suits your health, comfort and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between complete and partial dentures?
Complete dentures replace all the teeth in an arch, while partial dentures fill the gaps when you still have some natural teeth. Partial dentures attach to your remaining teeth and help keep them from shifting. We recommend the type that fits how many teeth you have and what you need.
How much do dentures cost in Calgary?
The cost depends on the type of dentures, the materials and any extra treatment such as extractions. We follow the Alberta Dental Association Fee Guide and give you a clear cost before you begin. Call 403-247-0999 for a personalized quote.
Does the Canadian Dental Care Plan cover dentures?
The Canadian Dental Care Plan lists complete and partial removable dentures among the services it may cover for eligible patients. Coverage depends on your eligibility and plan details. We welcome patients using the Canadian Dental Care Plan and bill most insurance plans directly.
How do I clean and care for my dentures?
Rinse your dentures after eating, brush them daily with a soft brush and a denture cleaner and soak them overnight as recommended. Handle them carefully over a towel or basin of water, and brush your gums and tongue too. Regular check-ups let us check the fit.
How long do dentures last, and how long does it take to get used to them?
Dentures often last several years, though they may need adjustments, relines or replacement as your mouth changes. Most people need a few weeks to get used to eating and speaking with new dentures. Soft foods and small bites help at first, and we adjust the fit as needed.
