What are Implant Dentures?
Implant dentures are similar to complete and partial dentures but have extra components inside the denture to help hold them firmly in place. The denture then connects to the implants that are surgically placed in your jaw bone. Because implants improve and strengthen your jaw when you eat, implant dentures are generally higher in quality to last longer.

Removable Implant Dentures
Removable implant dentures are held down by the implants but the denture can still be removed by the wearer. This allows for easy cleaning. They are generally similar or slightly smaller in size than normal dentures. This option is less expensive option than fixed implant dentures.
Today’s technology and innovative implant designs makes the dentures stay in the mouth really well. Sometimes the aid of a denture removal tool is required to take the denture out at home. This helps you continue your daily life. Go be as active as you want or be the food connoisseur, an epicure, or foodie you are within. A loose denture is the last thing you have to worry about.
Fixed Implant Dentures
Fixed implant dentures don’t feel like real dentures because they are much smaller in size and they cannot be taken out like normal dentures. The dentures are held down and supported completely by the implants so you won’t feel any pain from any food particles getting underneath the denture while you eat. Fixed implant dentures are removed only by a dental professional.
Security of Implant Dentures
Implant dentures stay nice and secure in your mouth when you be you. It allows you to be your best version. You can talk, eat, and laugh freely. This means no to glue and no to any other type of denture adhesive that goes in your mouth. This also means no more cleaning of the messy glue. The occurrence of sore spots from scraping and rubbing of the denture are also greatly reduced because the dentures are more firmly retained in your mouth.
Partial Implant Dentures
Implants dentures also work for people who still have some of their own natural teeth. Partial dentures help keep the denture in often without clasps and without having to get an individual implant for each missing tooth. Partial implant dentures are especially advised for people missing their back teeth where all the chewing is normally done.

Benefits with Implant Dentures
The jaw bone is also referred to as the alveolar bone, the bone that houses all your teeth. When teeth are removed, the alveolar bone resorbs into itself and naturally shrinks over time. Implants help reduce the resorption of your jaw bone and maintain your gum height and facial appearance.
Stability of The Implant Denture
The security of an implant denture is not the only noticeable difference. Your bite force increases because of the stability of the implant denture. The bite force dramatically drops when all your teeth go missing. This translates to a much weaker bite force for a normal denture wearer without implants – softer foods and slower chewing with loose dentures. An implant denture reverses this natural effect and maximizes the full potential of your jaw muscles with a secure, unmoving denture. This means biting an apple, steak, peanuts, corn on the cob, or anything chewy or sticky like gum are free reign. Not needing to cut up your food all the time is a blessing.
You Are What You Eat
Have you heard the saying, “You are what you eat.” ? Oral health is extremely important and directly impacts your overall health. Your life is too precious to waste away on caring about slipping or uncomfortable dentures or having to constantly stick them down with adhesive only to clean up the mess afterwards. Don’t let dentures dictate your lifestyle: what you eat, when or if you can go out or even who you go out with. If you have more important things than worrying about loose or painful dentures, then implant dentures are the right thing for you.
Food Tastes Better!
Not only can you eat more of what you want, but you can also taste more of what you’re eating. Upper implant dentures differ in design than traditional upper dentures allowing you to taste food with your tongue and the roof of your mouth. The open palate also helps make articulating and enunciating words easier. Currently, implant dentures are the closest treatment to having your natural teeth back.
Indications for Implant Dentures
Implant dentures are the right choice for people who are looking for a better or best possible denture treatment. They are the right choice for people who don’t want to use adhesive to keep their dentures in. They work well on people with sensitive gums because of the movements of a denture in their mouth. Implant dentures are for those who have experienced traditional dentures and want a better solution.
You don’t need to have sensitive gums for a loose denture to aggravate and irritate your mouth. Dentures will always have a bit of movement that most people can tolerate however the looser the denture, the more likely it will irritate and potentially deform and do harm to your gums. An implant denture is also a good solution for those who experience gagging when they wear an upper denture. Both fixed and removable upper denture options allow us to design the denture so that it doesn’t cover your palate. This is the option for those who are sensitive to the length of an upper denture. A great bonus is that you taste your food better. Fun Fact: You not only have taste buds on your tongue, but also on the roof of your mouth!
Implant Dentures Cost
The cost of having implant dentures has a large range. It is advised to have a consultation to figure which implant and implant denture treatment is right for you. A rough estimate can range from $1900 to $5,000. This estimate does not include other costs such as x-rays or the placement of the actual implants.
Having implant dentures is an investment in yourself and your well-being. Don’t put your body through digestion problems or the need to deal with facial deformations. Keep yourself from having to adjust your lifestyle around your dentures.
Now that you’re armed with these amazing dental secrets of a denturist, start with improving your oral health and begin your life changing story of a healthier and happier you.

Great place to get dentures serviced. My grandpa was having problems eating salad and biting his cheeks all the time after getting new dentures made in downtown St. Catharines. We couldn't deal with seeing him in agony so we took him to see Hayes and Vivan at Hayven Dentures. He is now eating everything he likes again. Thank you!

I had a great experience with Hayven Dentures. From my first appointment to my last fitting, they take the time to really listen and make sure you are satisfied and comfortable. I had 2 upper teeth missing due to medication I was taking. It affected my smile and my confidence. Since receiving my partial, I am much more confident and am not afraid to smile as wide as I want to! Thank you to all the staff at Hayven Dentures for the amazing service!!

Totally satisfied with my new dentures and the fact that I have no discomfort or issues as I had with my originals from 30( feels like 300) years ago. Hayes and his staff will give the best care in handling any and all denture needs. Much Thanks for giving me back my smile. Dave C

Having to deal with 30 plus year old denture and general neglect of my teeth. When the time came to remedy the situation I must say that my choice to have the work done by Hayden dental was a good one. Not only did they do a excellent job throughout the whole process but they staff and Hayes made it a lot of fun also. the job was done so well that I was able to munch a cob of corn with absolutely NO problem despite their recommendation that I give myself time to get used to my new teeth. I can say that I have no hesitation recommending Hayden Dental for anyone needing new dentures or denture support. Thanks muchly to Hayes and all for making me smile again.

After breaking two teeth, one being the tooth my upper partial attached to, I was devastated as I was no longer able to wear my plate, nor eat or even smile.I went to Hayven Clinic on an emergency appt the very next day and was immediately welcomed by Cherie, who took a very thorough history, then next Hayes and Judy. I was absolutely thrilled at the professional, kind and gentle approach provided by by all.My plate is repaired better then when it was originally made! It fits very comfortably and looks awesome.I have been to other denture clinics but will never go anywhere else now. I am having my full dentures done here by Hayes and Judy and I know they will be excellent.This clinic's team. Hayes, Judy and Cherie are outstanding - when you are doing something as important as having dentures made, have it done right by the right team the first time!

I found Hayven Dentures when I googled denturist’s in Niagara, when I called, & the receptionist Christine answered she was very helpful in answering my qustion’s. From my first initial visit for a consultation I knew I had made the right choice going to Hayven Denture Clinic. Hayes is a wonderful caring professional, Christine his receptionist /assistant is a gem. If you need denture’s or looking to have your current denture’s replaced as I did, you will have made the right choice by calling Hayven dentures.

I originally got my dentures from Hayes early this year but recently came back because my dog got a hold of my denture and cracked it in two. After fixing it, it felt exactly like it did when he first made them. It's been almost a year and they still look and feel brand new. My last set was from another denturist and it was cheaper and by the first year I could already see some wear and tear. Hayes is very professional and the quality of his dentures are worth it!

I had to write this review as it was a very long time since I've had my mouth taken care of as great as this place. I had dentures made from many other denture clinics and dental offices. I have gone through many different treatment options. Needless to say, I went through many adjustments, pain and to no avail I could not eat. I was very doubtful Hayes would be able to help me but I tried his suction dentures. I am now able to eat again after all these years. I highly recommend Hayven Dentures from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you Hayven Dentures!!!Hayes replaced my I’ll-fitting dentures with suction dentures that stay in place. What a difference!I am now able to eat foods that I avoided before like steak, apples and corn on the cob.Because of my experience at Hayven Dentures, I now know that when considering new dentures, it is so important to choose a clinician that will provide the right fit and bite of your new dentures.I highly recommend going to see Hayes who is a very professional, caring and knowledgeable denturist!

We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to Dr.Hayes Leung at Hayven Dentures at 289 Glendale Ave. for his excellent work and dedication to his patients. My husband was suffering with ill fitting dentures made by another Denturist that were causing such discomfort that it affected his ability to eat and speak properly. W decided to start over with a new Denturist, From our first visit to Hayes we were treated with kindness and compassion. We had full confidence in his ability to help Peter and were richly rewarded. The dentures he made for him were a perfect fit the first time with no adjustments necessary. After months of suffering it felt like he was given a new lease on life.A special thank you to Christine, his office manager, who was always so welcoming, efficient and helpful.They make a great team! We would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of his services.

I walked into the denture clinic this afternoon with a broken upper partial. Three hours later I walked out with a repaired partial that fit better than it did originally. Dr Hayes was fantastic! He adjusted my partial until I was happy and comfortable with it. The receptionist, Christine, was wonderful and helpful as well. I hope this will be my only problem with my partial but if I do need it repaired or adjusted again, I will be returning to Dr Hayes. Thank you Dr Hayes!

Dr. Hayes Leung at the Glendale Office in St. Catharines is extremely nice to deal with, very confident and patient when fitting or relining dentures. I have had dentures for over 50 years and have seen many Denture clinic personal and would recommend Dr. Leung and Haven Clinics to anyone needing their services

I had a great experience at Hayven Dentures. They were patient and took the time to explain the procedure thoroughly for my mouth guard. Their attention to detail was great as they made sure the fit was optimal so that my jaw alignment was not affected.

Hayes at Hayven Dentures was able to help my brother where previous professionals couldn't. The last set he owned constantly hurt him which led to way too many adjustments and they were always loose. We are very glad we found this gemstone denturist and will not forget such wonderful experience.

I had a very positive experience with Hayven Dentures today. My elderly mother broke her denture yesterday and as I live in another city and unable to get to her right away I called Hayven and the denturist went to the nursing home , picked up the denture , repaired it and returned it to her later in the day. The receptionist was very helpful in arranging this and I am very happy with the excellent service and compassion I experienced with them today.

Hayes from Hayven Dentures is very friendly and patient with my mother when she needed new dentures. During the whole process, Hayes was available to meet my mother at her home and answer all our questions. My mother's dentures were worn and they often fell out while she was eating. Hayven Dentures made her dentures fit so well that she can eat with no worries. Overall the experience was fabulous and I would recommend Hayven Dentures to everyone needing dentures.

I found Hayven Dentures on Facebook and decided to have complete dentures made by them. My journey began at the end of May and today, July 7th, I sit here with comfortable complete dentures that I'm thrilled with. I've had so many compliments from family and friends on how real they look and I no longer have to cover my mouth when I smile/laugh. My situation involved having teeth removed and immediate dentures same day. It was very painful at first and Hayes (Denturist) did everything in his power to alleviate the pain and his wonderful receptionist Christine followed up with me every step of the way . Hayes is so friendly and is definitely a master of his craft. I highly recommend Hayven Dentures.Sincerely,Sandra Laflamme 7/7/2018
