We understand that the unique needs of older adults require a specialized approach to dental care, and our experienced team is dedicated to providing gentle, compassionate, and personalized treatment. The concerns may include:

Dentures
Dentures are prosthetic appliances with teeth that are made to fill gaps left by missing teeth. Traditional removable dentures and even fixed dentures using dental implants are designed for them based on their preferences and financial resources. We at Hi-klean provide the most long-lasting and comfortable treatments to our elderly patients, leaving them feeling youthful and confident in their teeth and smiles, and thus exceeding their expectations on all levels.
Removable Prosthesis
Removable prosthesis, also known as dentures, are artificial teeth that are designed to replace missing teeth. They are available in a variety of materials, including acrylic, porcelain, and metal. Removable prosthesis can be either full dentures, which replace all of the teeth in an arch, or partial.
