Immediate Dentures in Fort Lauderdale

An immediate denture can be an ideal solution when complete tooth extraction is necessary. This option allows you to maintain the appearance of a full smile and avoid the inconvenience of missing teeth. Preparation for the procedure begins before the extraction process to ensure a smooth transition.

The first step involves taking impressions of your existing teeth and gums to create custom-fitted dentures. Once your teeth are extracted, the immediate dentures are placed, providing a natural-looking smile and restoring function right away.

What to Expect with Immediate Dentures

Since the denture is created before tooth removal, adjustments may be necessary to accommodate natural variations in gum structure and space. Some esthetic compromises might be required to achieve the best fit.

Post-Extraction Care

Proper aftercare is essential for optimal healing and comfort. Your gums and jawbone will naturally change shape after extraction, requiring regular follow-ups to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments. Temporary linings or tissue conditioners may be used to enhance the fit during the healing period. Once healing is complete, a permanent reline ensures a more secure and comfortable fit.

The dental team at Tarpon River Dental will assess your needs and recommend the best treatment plan.
Additional services like relining or tissue conditioning may have separate fees.
