Immediate dentures are dentures that are inserted into a patient’s mouth immediately after their teeth are removed. In fact, this will allow you to immediately begin learning to eat and speak with your new teeth. The advantage of immediate dentures is that you can walk away with a full smile immediately following the removal of natural teeth. However, because immediate dentures are inserted right after your dental surgery, the gums and jaw will change shape as they heal so it may be necessary to have an immediate denture adjusted. Having sore spots is normal and the denture will need to be adjusted by your denturist when they appear.
