FLIPPERS IN CALGARY

At Alberta Dentures, we provide custom flippers in Calgary to help restore your smile appearance, support basic function, and fill visible gaps while you heal or plan for a longer-term tooth replacement option.

What Are Flippers?

Flippers are lightweight, removable dental appliances made with replacement teeth attached to an acrylic base. They are often used as temporary dentures for patients missing one or more teeth.


A flipper denture is designed to improve appearance, fill gaps, and provide basic support while your mouth heals or while you wait for a long-term tooth replacement option such as a dental implant, bridge, or partial denture.

Types of Flippers

Choosing the right flipper denture depends on your oral health, treatment timeline, appearance goals, and tooth replacement needs.
