Immediate Dentures

If you’ve had teeth removed in preparation for a new denture, you’ll need to allow time for your gums and tissues to heal before it can be fitted.

We understand that waiting for your new denture fitting presents another form of discomfort.

This means there will be a period where you’ll need to be without teeth. Unfortunately, this can cause inconvenience and embarrassment for many people.

Fortunately, there is an alternative. An immediate denture is a full or partial denture made before your teeth extractions and then placed in the mouth immediately after. It is often used as a temporary solution until a permanent denture is fitted.

Before extraction, we will discuss your tooth removal with your dentist. By taking a series of impressions of your upper and lower teeth, we will gain accurate measurements of your mouth shape and bite. This process will help us ensure your denture fits properly and to determine the best tooth shape and shade.

Your immediate denture will be available at the time of your extractions so you can wear it right away.

 

Some solid reasons to have immediate dentures fitted

 

  • Can prevent dry sockets
  • Can prevent excessive bone loss
  • Quicker adjustment to the permanent dentures
  • You will be able to eat many solid foods immediately after teeth extraction
  • Walk straight out of the clinic with a bright smile!
