SAME DAY DENTURES
WHAT ARE SAME DAY DENTURES?
Same-day dentures, also referred to as "immediate" dentures, are utilised for patients who, perhaps as a result of an emergency, must have their natural teeth extracted. The dentist immediately inserts the new denture; there is no waiting between appointments or healing time. The majority of other dental procedures take significantly longer to fit than same-day dentures.
Patients who need a new denture made within 24 hours but have lost their old ones can also have same-day dentures made.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR SAME DAY DENTURES?
You will have an evaluation of your jaw and teeth, as well as impressions taken, during your initial consultation. Your new dentures will fit into your mouth flawlessly thanks to this crucial step in the treatment.
Next, dental technicians will carefully match the tooth's colour to the colour of your remaining teeth by carefully selecting the right tooth's colour, shape, and size. Your new denture will then be fitted by the dentist.
HOW MUCH TIME DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE SAME DAY DENTURES?
The number of teeth on the denture determines this. The denture can typically be made the same day if it is replacing multiple missing teeth. If a full denture is needed or a large number of teeth are missing, the technician will need minimum 24 hours to reconstruct the new denture.
DO SAME DAY DENTURES HAVE ANY DISADVANTAGES?
The bone there resorbs, or shrinks back, naturally, after teeth are removed. In the year following tooth extraction, the majority of this resorption takes place. The same-day denture will therefore probably loosen up over time. In the future, though, the denture can be relined to regain a more secure fit.
WHAT OTHER OPTIONS ARE THERE BESIDES SAME DAY DENTURES?
It is possible to wait for the socket to heal before getting a permanent denture made. An adhesive bridge that requires no tooth preparation or a conventional bridge could be created for you. Bridges are a fixed substitute for dentures, though occasionally they do necessitate the preparation of the neighbouring tooth. It takes one to two weeks to make a denture bridge.
A dental implant is an additional option. This option is a more permanent solution to the issue of missing teeth, despite being significantly more expensive than dentures. The placement of dental implants typically takes several months to complete.
