Immediate Dentures
Worried about having to go in public without teeth while you heal from extractions? Problem solved! We offer same-day immediate dentures.
What are immediate dentures?
What are the advantages
of immediate dentures?
These are dentures which are placed immediately following the removal of your remaining natural teeth, either upper, lower, or both. They’re made right there in our on-site denture lab. That means no long waits without teeth.
Leave our clinic with new teeth the same day your old teeth are removed. No need to go toothless! Immediate dentures help control swelling & bleeding. They also help you start getting used to dentures right away. The alternative is getting used to being toothless while your extraction sites heal, then still having to learn to function with dentures once you’re healed.
What is the process for getting immediate dentures?
-
The process typically takes 6 months, but can take longer for some patients.

-
Procedure – your teeth are removed and your new teeth are placed.
