IMMEDIATE DENTURES

IMMEDIATE DENTURES

To avoid the situation of being without teeth after an extraction, the denturist must implement the immediate denture treatment. This involves taking impressions before extractions of natural teeth. The denturist can then fabricate a denture prior to the extraction so that the dentist can insert them.
In the event of an individual having an extraction, tooth loss can effect the quality of a persons life by restricting the ability to chew properly and can become an affliction to ones aesthetics. An immediate denture is a temporary solution to help accommodate these factors, as aesthetics are very important to some people. Also, this denture can also act as a bandage and maintaining pressure on the open tissues to promote faster healing.
​Before the extraction process, the denturist will take an impression and fabricate a denture to replace the tooth/teeth that will be extracted. On the model, the tooth will be cut out to imitate the extraction site and a tooth will replace it on the denture. After the extraction, the dentist will then immediately insert in the denture. The patient is then advised to return to the denturist in 24 hours for any adjustments. Relines and adjustment are common in this treatment.
​ ​It is imperative that the patient follows post operative instructions to boost the healing process. As healing occurs, the tissue will recede and frequent adjustments may be required. After, either a reline will be made to adapt to the changes of the tissues, or a new denture can be made. Tissue conditioner or even soft liner may be a solution to to ensure the best comfort.
