The primary difference between an immediate denture and replacement of a conventional, or permanent, dentures is that the former is temporary. Immediate dentures are not specifically custom-fitted to the mouth like permanent dentures, so they don’t always fit properly.
Immediate Dentures
Prior to tooth removal, your dentist takes measurements and impressions, and these dentures are made on-site and inserted immediately once your natural teeth are removed. You will wear these for the first several months after extraction, so you’ll have teeth while awaiting the arrival of your permanent dentures. Immediate dentures — placed in your mouth the same day your dentist extracts your teeth — are not specifically custom-fitted to the mouth, allowing healing by protecting tooth extraction sites. You will be able to chew better and learn how to be Secure when you speak, with no loss of smile.

Denture Process
Our denture process begins with a consultation with your dentist. During this session, your oral health will be assessed, and various tooth replacement options will be explained to you. If traditional dentures are deemed suitable, additional procedures such as extractions or other treatments may be necessary before you can receive your prosthetic.
Once your mouth is prepared for dentures, precise impressions of your gums and any remaining natural teeth will be taken. Collaborating with our onsite lab, we will craft your new dentures and make any required adjustments to ensure optimal comfort and fit. You will then return fora final fitting, during which we will guide you on the usage and maintenance of your new dentures.
