Are Same Day Dentures Made in Advance?

Posted on 12/10/2021 by Pacific Maxillofacial Center

Same-day dentures are oral appliances meant for short time use. They are not meant to be your permanent dentures. Despite that, these dentures are good enough to give you a good smile as you wait for the creation of permanent teeth. Wearing same-day dentures eliminates the need to walk around with gaps in your mouth, especially after having a tooth extraction procedure. Same-day dentures also help prepare your mouth, especially if you have a history of sensitive gums. Read on to understand more about same-day dentures.

Understanding Same-Day Dentures

Same-day dentures are made about one to two weeks in advance. This is mostly done if you will undergo a tooth extraction procedure. By doing so, you will be able to get your same-day dentures as soon as the extraction process is over. Upon getting your same-day dentures, it is important to take good care of them because they can get faulty. Good denture care is as important as taking care of your teeth.

You are advised to rinse them on a regular basis to get rid of bacteria. Failure to do so, bacteria will accumulate and lead to serious oral conditions like tooth decay. You should also brush your teeth at least twice a day. In addition, you are warned against consuming hot liquids during the first few days of wearing your same-day dentures. This is because it can dislodge the newly installed dentures and cause misfits. Using tobacco or smoking is also prohibited after same-day denture fitting.

Same-day dentures are meant to last for a short period. Therefore, it is important to avoid overusing them because they can affect your dental structure. You should also come in for regular visits so that our professionals can examine the state of your same-day dentures. Contact our offices for more information on same-day dentures.
