Someone else made it.
It doesn't fit.
We fix it.
You paid good money. You trusted someone. And now you're living with a denture that rocks, pops off, cuts your gums, or sits in a drawer because you gave up. We see this every single week. Bring it in.
“Does this sound like you?”
These aren't hypotheticals. These are the actual conversations Damien has every week with patients walking through the door.
“I had implants placed two years ago. The denture keeps popping off — especially when I eat.”
Locator attachments wear out, get misaligned, or were never calibrated right in the first place. We assess the attachment system, replace worn housings, and if needed, build a new overdenture that actually fits your implants — not just any implants.
“My denture has never fit right. I've been back six times and they keep adjusting it.”
If it didn't fit after the second adjustment, the impression was probably wrong. No amount of adjusting fixes a denture built from a bad foundation. We start over — proper intraoral scan, proper bite registration, CNC milled in our lab. It fits right the first time because the data is right.
“I broke my denture and the other place said it would take two weeks to fix.”
Two weeks? We have an in-house lab. A crack, a broken tooth, a fractured base — most emergency repairs are done while you wait. If it's beyond repair, we'll tell you honestly and talk about a rebuild.
“I got a denture from a clinic that outsources everything. It came back three times and still wasn't right.”
This is what happens when the denturist never sees the lab work until it arrives in a box. At Dentures Direct, Damien designs it and Luisa mills it — in the same building, the same day. No middleman. No mysteries.
“I have old ball attachments on my implants. My new dentist says they're outdated.”
They are. Ball attachments wear faster, retain less, and need replacing more often. We convert to modern LOCATOR R-TX attachments — better snap, longer lifespan, and compatible with the angled implant positions that ball attachments struggle with.
“My denture sits in a drawer. I gave up.”
Bring it in anyway. Let Damien look at it. Sometimes a reline is all it needs. Sometimes it needs to be rebuilt. Sometimes you need implants to make any denture work. But you won't know until someone who actually fabricates dentures in-house takes a look.
Maybe it's not your fault.
We can't say for certain what went wrong until Damien examines your denture. But these are the patterns we see over and over again.
They outsource the lab work
Many clinics send your impressions to an outside lab. The denturist may never see the wax-up or check the fit until it arrives. If it's wrong, they send it back. If it's close enough, they hand it to you. That's not always the case — but it's common.
They skip the digital workflow
Putty impressions are older technology. They can distort, cause gagging, and introduce error at the very first step. A denture built from a compromised impression may never fit properly — no matter how many adjustments are made.
They don't specialize
Implant overdentures are not the same as a regular denture. The attachment system, framework design, and occlusion require specific experience. A clinic that does mostly conventional dentures may not have the volume of implant cases to catch every nuance.
Everything stays in this building.
Damien designs it
Not a technician he's never met. Not an algorithm. Damien — 25 years, thousands of cases — designs the overdenture for your specific anatomy, bite, and implant positions.
Luisa mills it
RDT Candidate, George Brown trained. She operates the CNC mill in our lab — same floor, same day. If something needs tweaking, Damien walks 10 feet and they fix it together.
Intraoral scan — no goop
We start with a 3D digital impression. No putty, no distortion, no guessing. The data is perfect before fabrication ever begins. That's why our dentures fit right the first time.
CNC milled — not 3D printed
Milled from solid medical-grade PMMA puck. It's denser, stronger, and more stain-resistant than anything a 3D printer can produce. This is the standard used by the best labs in North America.
What does a rescue cost?
It depends on what's wrong. A reline is different from a full rebuild. A locator replacement is different from a new overdenture. We won't know until Damien looks at it.
What we can tell you: if you need a new digital implant overdenture, our fee is $5,250 per arch — flat, no tax, no variation. Same fee whether it's a rescue case or a new build. That's our number for everyone.
If a repair or reline can save your current denture, we'll do that instead — and it'll cost significantly less. We don't upsell you into a new denture if the old one can be fixed.
You've been through enough.
Bring your denture. Bring your frustration. Bring the denture that's sitting in a drawer because you gave up on it. Damien will look at it, tell you exactly what went wrong, and tell you what it takes to fix it.
No charge for the assessment. No pressure. Just an honest answer from someone who builds every denture himself — in this building, on this bench.
