Dentures
Rediscover your natural-looking smile.
If it’s time to replace your dentures or you’re in need of a full-mouth restoration, our Kent, WA denturist…Learn more about Josh and Rob… has a solution for you.
Partial Dentures
Replace your missing teeth in no time.
Partial dentures replace several missing teeth and help fill gaps. We custom design our partial dentures for aesthetics and durability, and make them right in our on-site lab.
Perfect for improving confidence, this type of denture also prevents surrounding teeth from shifting and lets you eat and speak normally.
Partial dentures help make smiles whole again.
Dental Implants & Overdentures
A permanent solution designed for your needs.
Our Kent, WA denturist works closely with oral surgeon Dr. Fieder at Kent Auburn Oral Surgery to give you a permanent tooth replacement option with dental implants and overdentures.
Dental implants are the ultimate restoration for a secure fit and natural-looking smile.The surgeon places the implant, and we create and place the tooth prosthesis, AKA overdenture.
By working with Dr. Fieder, our patients benefit from coordinated scheduling and treatment planning, plus affordable package pricing for implant-supported dentures.
Immediate Dentures
At Lifelike Dentures, we can extract your teeth and fit you with a denture the same day!
If you’re getting your remaining teeth extracted, our on-site extractions and same-day dentures mean you’ll never be without your teeth. Our dentist, Dr. Foster Hall…Learn more about our dentist…, performs the extraction right in our office.
You’ll wear “immediate” or transitional dentures right after the surgery. While you heal we provide adjustments to the immediate denture and temporary liners included in our package price to keep you comfortable. Then, once your mouth has healed and the bone is resorbed, we create your high-quality, custom, final set of dentures.
We offer this convenient service at a cost-effective package price to help make your denture goals a reality.

Why Are My Dentures Loose?
Dentures need to be relined every two years due to constant change in the mouth. A reline is maintenance on a properly functioning dentures. A reline consultation is always necessary to determine whether the fit is the only problem or if the dentures themselves need to be replaced due to wear.

My Dentures Were Fine, Now Its Hard To Chew, Why?
All dentures wear out over time and need to be replaced at least every 5+ years depending on the wear of the teeth. A new set of dentures will reestablish the bite and occlusion making it much easier to cut and chew through food.

Do You Provide Follow Up Care?
Yes, all of our patients receive complimentary adjustments for the life of the teeth. We believe in patients being comfortable and happy.
