Immediate Dentures
Replace your missing teeth
Immediate dentures restore your natural smile straight away.
Immediate dentures are full or partial dentures inserted immediately after teeth removal. They are constructed ahead of time, so you are not left with any gaps or no teeth following surgery/extraction.
They are a type of denture that helps prevent swelling, and gives you functional teeth, whilst the bones and gums heal.
They help to maintain your appearance and self-confidence, preserve the shape of your face by supporting the lips and cheeks, and help you to eat and speak normally.
All consulting work for these dentures is done prior to extraction, to ensure the replication of your natural teeth.
FAQs
How long do they last?
Once healing has occurred, after 4 to 6 months, you will either need a reline of your immediate denture or possibly the fabrication of an entirely new denture. If a new one is to be made, you will be able to use the immediate denture as a spare (emergency) denture.
Are there any risks associated with these?
Like any dental procedure, there are certain risks associated with immediate dentures, such as potential swelling and gum irritation, difficulty speaking, and eating. Following oral hygiene instructions will help mitigate any risks.
Are there any special care instructions for immediate dentures?
Maintaining your dentures will usually involve extra care initially. Once fully healed, standard denture and oral care routines can be followed.
What kind of follow-up care is needed after having an immediate denture procedure?
It is important to receive follow-up care, such as adjustments and relines, to ensure that your denture fits comfortably.
