Fixing Same Day Dentures London
Same Day Dentures: What Are They?
Same-day dentures, also called "immediate" dentures, are used for individuals who need to have their natural teeth extracted, possibly due to an emergency. There is no waiting between appointments or healing period while the dentist fits the new denture. Compared to same-day dentures, most other dental procedures require a much longer fitting time.
Same-day denture casting is also an option for patients who have lost their previous dentures and require a new one within 24 hours.
What Is The Same-Day Denture Procedure?
During your initial consultation, an assessment of your jaw and teeth will be conducted, along with the taking of impressions. This important stage in the process will ensure that your new dentures fit well in your mouth.
Next, after carefully choosing the appropriate tooth in terms of size, form, and colour, dental specialists will carefully match the tooth's colour to the colour of your remaining teeth. The dentist will then fit your new denture.
What Is The Time Frame For Making Same-Day Dentures?
This is determined by the number of teeth on the denture. If several teeth need to be replaced, the denture can usually be manufactured on the same day. A minimum of 24 hours will be required by the technician to reconstruct the new denture if a full denture is required or a significant number of teeth are missing.
Are There Any Disadvantages To Same-Day Dentures?
After teeth are extracted, the bone there resorbs, or shrinks back, spontaneously. The majority of this resorption occurs in the year after tooth extraction. As a result, the same-day denture will most likely become looser with time. To restore a more snug fit, the denture can be relined in the future.
Apart From Same-Day Dentures, What Other Options Are There?
One option is to postpone getting a permanent denture until the socket has healed. We could make you an adhesive bridge that doesn't need to be cleaned by a dentist or a traditional bridge. Bridges are a permanent alternative to dentures, albeit on occasion they do require the neighbouring tooth to be prepared. A denture takes one to two weeks to complete.
Another choice is a dental implant. Though much more expensive than dentures, this alternative offers a more long-term solution to the problem of missing teeth. It usually takes many months to complete the implantation of dental implants.
