Benefits of Same-Day Dentures

Immediate dentures offer several advantages:

• Immediate Restoration: For most people, this is the most important factor. If you want to restore your smile quickly, same-day dentures are the best way.
• Beautiful Smile: Immediate dentures give you a set of sparkling pearly whites to show off – and they also help maintain your facial structure by preventing the sunken appearance that often occurs after tooth loss. 
• Functional Improvement: With immediate dentures, you’ll be able to chew and speak like you normally would.
• Protection of Healing Tissues: Immediate dentures act as a protective barrier over the extraction sites, reducing the risk of infection and promoting optimal healing of the gums and underlying bone. This is why same-day dentures are sometimes used as a temporary denture option for people getting traditional dentures.
• Preserve Gum and Jaw Health: By immediately replacing missing teeth with dentures, you help prevent remaining teeth from shifting into empty spaces in your gums and jaw, which can lead to bite problems and further dental issues over time.

Drawbacks of Same-Day Dentures

It’s important to note that while same-day dentures may be the perfect solution for some people, they’re not for everyone. It may be the case that full dentures or dental implants are a better choice for you. Before making your decision, consider these potential drawbacks of same-day dentures:

• Fit and Comfort: Same-day dentures may not provide the same level of customization and fit as traditional dentures. They may require adjustments to achieve optimal comfort and function, leading to potential discomfort during the initial adaptation period.
• Aesthetic Limitations: They may not perfectly match the color, shape, and contours of your natural teeth, which could affect their appearance.
• Stability and Retention: Since they are fitted immediately after tooth extraction, there may be changes in the underlying bone and gum tissue during the healing process, affecting the fit of the dentures over time.
• Cost Considerations: While same-day dentures offer immediate restoration of missing teeth, they may be more expensive than traditional dentures due to the expedited process. Additionally, not all dental insurance plans may fully cover same-day dentures, leading to higher out-of-pocket costs for some individuals.

What to Expect If You Get Same-Day Dentures

Embarking on the journey to same-day dentures involves several key stages, each designed to ensure the process is smooth, effective, and tailored to meet your specific needs. Here’s a closer look at the steps involved in acquiring your new smile:

• Initial Consultation – We examine your mouth, determine if you’re an ideal candidate for immediate dentures, and answer any questions you have. If you decide to move forward, we construct dentures to fit your mouth and create a plan for your procedure.
• Procedure – The entire procedure will take place during your second appointment. The first step is tooth extraction, which many patients require. Once extraction is complete, the denture is placed.
• Recovery and Post-Operative Care – We’ll provide clear instructions on how to take care of your dentures to ensure long-term success.
