Complete upper and lower immediate dentures

Complete upper and lower immediate dentures are a popular option for individuals who have lost all of their natural teeth and are looking for a quick and effective solution to restore their smile. These dentures are designed to be placed immediately after the extraction of the remaining teeth, allowing patients to leave the dental surgery with a new set of teeth on the same day.
One of the key benefits of complete upper and lower immediate dentures is that they provide patients with a natural-looking smile in a short amount of time. This can be especially important for individuals who rely on their appearance for their professional or personal lives. With immediate dentures, patients can avoid the embarrassment of being without teeth while waiting for traditional dentures to be made.
Another advantage of immediate dentures is that they help to preserve the shape of the face and prevent the sunken appearance that can occur when teeth are missing. By providing support to the facial muscles, these dentures can help patients maintain a more youthful and vibrant appearance. Additionally, immediate dentures can help patients adjust to speaking and eating with dentures more quickly, as they do not have to wait for their gums to heal before receiving their new teeth.
While immediate dentures offer many benefits, it is important for patients to understand that they may require adjustments over time. As the gums heal and shrink after tooth extraction, the fit of the dentures may change.  Approximately 3-4 weeks later, you will need to have a temporary lining put in the denture(s) fitting well whilst gums a still shrinking. Once they have completed healed, which varies from patient to patient, we perform a permanent reline(s).  This is why regular visits to a Dental Prosthetist are essential for ensuring that the dentures continue to fit properly and remain comfortable to wear.

In conclusion, complete upper and lower immediate dentures are a convenient and effective option for individuals who are in need of a full set of teeth. By providing patients with a natural-looking smile on the same day as tooth extraction(s), these dentures can help individuals regain their confidence and improve their quality of life. With proper care and maintenance, immediate dentures can provide patients with a long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
