Getting a denture made and fitted has traditionally meant bouncing between a denturist’s office and your dentist, coordinating appointments across two locations and hoping the timelines line up. That’s no longer the case at Durham Dental Solutions. We’re proud to welcome Hayes Leung, MESc, DD, to our team as our on-site denturist, bringing full denture care into the same building as the rest of your dental treatment.
Meet Hayes Leung, MESc, DD
Hayes is a highly accomplished Ontario denturist recognized for his clinical expertise, academic background, and patient-focused approach to care. He holds certification in Suction Effective Mandibular Complete Dentures (SEMCD) and is BPS (Biofunctional Prosthetic System) certified, specialized training that translates into dentures built for a more secure, comfortable fit rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. You can read more about Hayes and the rest of our team here.
What Having an On-Site Denturist Actually Changes
Adding a denturist to our in-house team isn’t just a convenience upgrade. It changes how denture care gets delivered from start to finish.
CDCP accepted. We now accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan for eligible denture patients, making comprehensive denture care more accessible for patients who qualify for coverage.
Payment plans available. For costs beyond what CDCP or insurance covers, we offer flexible financing options to help make treatment manageable.
On-site dental laboratory. Our in-house lab means dentures are fabricated and adjusted without the delays that come from outsourcing to an outside lab, so fittings and adjustments happen faster.
Advanced digital technology. From digital scanning that replaces messy traditional impressions to 3D printing capabilities in our lab, your denture is designed and produced with a level of precision and speed that older analog methods simply can’t match.
Comprehensive care, all in one location. With Dr. Mark Bishara and Dr. Sheri Margolian on-site alongside Hayes, extractions, oral health evaluations, and denture fittings can all be coordinated under one roof rather than referred out and rescheduled elsewhere.
Why This Matters for Denture Patients
If you’ve worn dentures before, you already know that fit is everything. A denture that shifts, rubs, or feels loose isn’t just uncomfortable, it can affect how you eat and speak day to day. Having a denturist embedded in a practice that also handles implant-supported dentures means patients dealing with loose dentures have a full range of options on the table, from a traditional reline to a more permanent implant-supported solution, without starting the conversation over at a different office.
What to Expect at Your Denture Consultation
Your first visit with Hayes typically starts with an evaluation of your current dentures, if you have them, or an assessment of your mouth if you’re being fitted for the first time. From there, digital scanning captures the information needed to design a denture built around your specific mouth, rather than adjusted from a generic mold after the fact.
Schedule Your Denture Consultation
Whether you need a new denture, a reline, or simply want a second opinion on a denture that isn’t fitting right, schedule a consultation with Hayes Leung and our team to find out what comprehensive, on-site denture care looks like.
