Same-Day Dentures: Everything You Need to Know

Dentures are an ideal solution for anyone with missing teeth. However, creating a conventional denture is a time-consuming process. If you don’t have time to undergo the traditional denture procedure, you can opt for same-day dentures or immediate dentures. Same-day dentures, also called immediate dentures, are just like conventional dentures but without the wait. Read more to get some crucial information about same-day dentures.

What are same-day dentures?

Same-day dentures are similar to traditional dentures, but you are leaving with new dentures right after your appointment. The dentures are inserted into a patient’s mouth immediately after their teeth are removed. Same-day dentures are most suitable for people who have already lost their teeth in the past and have healed gum.

How long does it take to get same-day dentures?

With same-day dentures, your dentist creates a 3D image or mold for the dentures, an on-site denturist makes the dentures that very same day. The whole process is finished in one visit.

Do immediate dentures look natural?

Same-day dentures are made with the same technology that is used to make other types of dentures. Therefore, they perfectly complement the shape and color of the rest of your teeth to give a fully natural look. However, compared to traditional dentures, immediate dentures won’t be easily noticeable to others.

How much do immediate dentures cost?

The cost can vary depending on the specific oral health condition of patients. Immediate dentures can be slightly more expensive than traditional dentures because of the process involved in their creation and fitting.

Do immediate dentures hurt?

You can expect some minor discomfort initially due to dental extractions and sore areas surrounding the immediate dentures. However, the patient is usually evaluated within 24-48 hours of insertion of the immediate denture to provide the desired relief.

What are the benefits of same-day dentures?

The main benefits of same-day dentures are that they are quick and convenient. Immediate dentures also help to protect the gum tissue and serve as a dressing to control bleeding.
