What are immediate dentures?
Put simply, they are temporary Dentures planned and made before extractions, so they can be fitted 'immediately' after any extractions but before the healing gum shrinkage has occurred, for social and basic eating convenience usually. The big plus is socially you aren't left weeks or months with no teeth as the gums heal & shrink after extractions - the negative is that they WILL need replacing early because your gums often shrink a lot and so the fit worsens quickly. That's why we call them temporary; they help you get through the biggest change period.
When might this be necessary?
When many of your teeth are loose or painful, they may be beyond saving. This condition is usually caused by advanced periodontal disease. Periodontal disease causes bone to be lost; if it's not caught in time, there's so little support for the teeth that they have to be removed.
Removing your teeth and replacing them with a denture may be the best way to eliminate any infection and restore the health of your mouth. When the extractions procedure and denture fitting are completed in one day, it's called an immediate denture. See below a case where the mouth is so bad one may have to lose all one's teeth and have dentures:
People considering dentures often feel a mixture of relief and sadness – relief that something can be done, but sadness in some cases, because there's some guilt that they “let things get this bad” or could have done this or that earlier perhaps?. You are not alone and please remember some 30% are genetically vulnerable to gum diseases, plus the food industry adds ++ extra sugars to food and drinks, even normal looking savoury foods (cheap addictive filler), so be assured, you will not be judged here at the Smile Specialist Centre, Haworth, near to Keighley and Bradford, West Yorkshire. Our aim is to help you improve health, stability and confidence in eating, speaking and smiling, at a pace you can cope with. When we design dentures, we look at much more than just replacing teeth: we consider oral comfort, stability, facial support, appearance and long-term practicality for your lifestyle. That may involve precision partial dentures, full dentures, or using implants or mini-implants to hold them firmly if there's enough bone to utilise smartly – and we will explain all the realistic options so you can choose what feels right for you So whilst you might be worried or miss your own teeth (that's why you hung on so long, maybe too long, right?), you can still appreciate NOW is the time to return to health and stability and remove the failing/failed/infected worst teeth, but planning their replacements before removal, smartly for your needs. Dr.Kilcoyne can help and guide you expertly through that journey, caringly, as he has with thousands of others successfully.
So what is typically involved?
To begin this process, your dentist first takes impressions of your mouth. From these impressions, precise working models of your mouth are made. It's from these models that the dentures are made. We'll work with you to select the best colour and shape for your new teeth. When your denture is ready, we'll extract your remaining teeth. You'll be thoroughly numbed before any teeth are removed, and should feel no pain. Naturally, things will feel very different. As soon as your teeth are out, your denture will immediately be placed in your mouth. For the first 24 hours, your new denture will feel tight because your gums are swollen. As your bone heals over the next weeks/month, your gums will shrink and your denture will feel loose. When this happens, we'll use a temporary lining material to tighten the fit. After this period of healing, when the
shape of your mouth has stabilised, we'll send your denture back to the lab and have it relined to improve it's fit.
RELINES ARE OFTEN REQUIRED AND ALWAYS ATTRACT ADDITIONAL CHARGES!
Some temporary problems are a normal part of adjusting to your new denture. At first your denture may tip when you chew. You may notice
increased salivation. The denture may seem bulky, and you might gag a little. Your tongue will feel crowded and you might have difficulty speaking normally. Like learning any new skill, at first it will feel awkward to eat with your new denture. But with time and practice, you'll improve, the only question is by how much. You may need another Denture sooner than predicted, if problems persist. Everyone is different.

----------------------------------------------Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures
What are dentures?
Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They can restore appearance, support the lips and cheeks and improve chewing and speech when natural teeth have been lost.
What is the difference between full and partial dentures?
Full dentures replace all the teeth in one jaw, while partial dentures replace only some missing teeth and clip onto the remaining natural teeth or are supported by precision attachments.
How well will I be able to eat and speak with dentures?
There is usually an adjustment period while your muscles and tongue learn to control the dentures. Most patients gradually regain good function, especially if they start with softer foods and follow the advice given by the dental team.
How long does it take to get used to new dentures?
It can take several days to a few weeks to feel fully confident with new dentures. Sore spots or pressure areas are common at first and can be adjusted. Follow-up visits are important to fine-tune the fit.
How should I care for my dentures and gums?
Dentures should be cleaned daily with a soft brush and appropriate cleanser, not ordinary toothpaste. Your gums, tongue and any remaining teeth also need brushing, and dentures are usually removed at night to let the tissues rest unless your dentist advises otherwise.
Are there alternatives to traditional dentures?
Alternatives may include implant-supported overdentures, fixed bridges or a combination of implants and teeth. These options can offer more stability and confidence, particularly for patients who struggle with very loose lower dentures.
