...and what should you be prepared for?

First, you will need to have a consultation with your clinical dental technician to determine the best type of dentures for your needs and budget. They will also take impressions of your mouth and teeth to create a custom-made denture.

Next, you will have a trial fitting to check the fit, comfort and appearance of your denture. You can make any adjustments or changes at this stage before the final denture is made.

Finally, you will receive your final denture and learn how to care for it properly. You may experience some soreness, discomfort or difficulty speaking or eating at first, but this will improve over time as you get used to your denture.

Getting dentures can improve your quality of life and boost your confidence. If you have any questions or concerns about the denture fitting process, don’t hesitate to contact us today!

EarthDiverse wishes our Muslim family and friends a warm and happy Eid celebration.

Eid al-Adha, also known as the "Feast of the Sacrifice" is the second and the largest of the two main holidays celebrated in Islam (the other being Eid al-Fitr). It honours the willingness of Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his son Ishmael. Islam shares this tradition with Judaism, and honours Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son Isaac (in the Jewish tradition) or Ishmael (in the Islamic tradition; Qur’an: Surah As-Saaffat 37:102). This story is well-known in the Hebrew Bible (Genesis 22) and is referred to as the Akedah. It is considered by both Jews and Muslims as an act of obedience to God's will. However, before Abraham could sacrifice his son, and because of his willingness to do so, God provided him with a lamb to sacrifice in his son's place.

In commemoration of this intervention, animals are ritually sacrificed in the Islamic tradition. Part of the meat is consumed by the family that offers the animal, while the rest of the meat is distributed to the poor and the needy. Sweets and gifts are exchanged, and extended family members and friends visit each other.

In the Islamic lunar calendar, Eid al-Adha falls on the tenth day of the month of Dhu al-Hijja and lasts for four days.
