denturist
False teeth specialist
A denturist is a dental professional who specializes in making and fitting dentures.
Unlike dentists, denturists work only with removable dental prosthetics—full or partial dentures—and typically cannot perform extractions or other dental procedures.
The denturist took impressions for my new partial.
The profession exists in some jurisdictions but not others.
