Radiance Dental Dentist Anaheim California

Dentures are removable plastic and metal covers that fit over the top and bottom teeth to help improve eating, speaking, and overall oral health after tooth loss or tooth decay has occurred. If you’re interested in learning more about when same-day artificial teeth are right for you, keep reading to learn more about the kinds of situations where they’ll be the best choice!

What are same-day dentures?

Traditional replacements can take several months to create, which can hinder many people who need to start eating solid foods immediately. But what if there was a way to get new teeth in just one day? Thanks to same-day denture procedures, it’s possible!

While there are a few situations where same-day teeth aren’t ideal, they’re often an excellent solution for those who need new teeth right away. For example, if your permanent ones recently broke or recently had your teeth extracted. Same-day teeth are also ideal if you want to get your full set of teeth back as soon as possible after a major dental procedure like tooth extraction or gum surgery.

How are they applied?

The denture is placed on top of your gums and held in place by natural suction. There are no braces, and they aren’t glued into place. This type of denture can be removed at any time, though if you remove it too much, it may weaken your gum tissue and cause problems with saliva flow. They also have to be disinfected more often than other types. While these properties make them very convenient for patients, there is an increased risk of infection during treatment. If you’re not prone to infections or don’t have existing issues that could complicate your procedure, then these might be a good choice for you.

What makes them different from traditional denture implants?

Since traditional implants must go through a long healing period, people who use them to replace their lower or upper denture teeth have to wait months before using their artificial teeth. The same-day denture implant is designed for patients who cannot be without teeth and don’t want to live with ill-fitting, uncomfortable artificial teeth for long periods.

The healing period required for same-day dentures is much shorter than traditional implants, making it possible for patients to receive a full set of teeth immediately. Traditional implant patients need to wait several months before wearing their new artificial teeth. Same-day patients can get comfortable with them in just one day.

Who can use them?

As a rule, same-day artificial teeth can be used by almost any patient missing all their teeth. Patients with a fair amount of jawbone density and strong tissue in their gums may have sufficient bone density to support traditional dental implants. Additionally, candidates for implant dentistry will likely also be candidates for same-day denture treatment. In both cases, it’s important that you consult with your dentist before making your final decision about whether or not the same day is the best long-term solution for you.
