Temporary Placements

Dentures are removable replacements for teeth that are missing and the surrounding tissues. At healthy smiles premier dental we perform dentures placements for several reasons depending on the patient’s issues.

There are two types of dentures which you can opt for at healthy smiles premier dental which are:

  • Complete dentures – They can either be immediate or conventional. Immediate dentures are usually made in advance, before the removal of the teeth, and can be placed once the teeth are removed. Traditional dentures are made when the teeth are already extracted and the gum tissues recovering. Conventional dentures are placed in your mouth about ten weeks after teeth extraction.
    The con of immediate dentures is that they consume a lot of time since they require more adjustments for proper fitting compared to conventional dentures; therefore regarded as a temporary solution.
  • Partial dentures. Partial dentures tend to fill the place of missing teeth as well as preventing other teeth from being misaligned. Since a partial denture is removable, it enhances a more natural looking teeth structure.
