Immediate Dentures Santa Ana CA
An immediate denture may be the best solution when complete extractions of your remaining teeth is unavoidable. An immediate denture will allow you to avoid the embarrassment of living without teeth. We will begin the preparation for this procedure before your teeth are extracted.
The first step is taking impressions of your existing teeth and gums to create accurate duplicates for placement after tooth removal. At your extraction appointment, your immediate dentures are inserted creating a natural smile you can be proud of. Sometimes the extractions will be done in a few phases allowing certain sections to heal before the impression process for better accuracy.
What you should know about immediate dentures
In most cases, we have no way of checking the fit of the denture in your mouth prior to extraction. Esthetic compromises may have to be made in some cases to compensate for inadequate space or structural concerns. Color and shape of the teeth will be determined during the appointments.

After Extraction
Great care should be taken to follow all postoperative instructions. Your gums and bone will recede after extraction, and regular check-ups and maintenance will monitor healing and reduce problems. Sometimes a Temporary linings or tissue conditioner will be required to create an optimal fit during the healing period. Denture adhesives are a great companion for denture wearers with a vast supply to choose from your local pharmacy. Try all of them to see which one you like the best. A permanent conventional denture will be required after one year to ensure a comfortable and an exact fit after you have completed the healing process.
