You may experience some soreness and slight irritation in the beginning, your dentist will check and do required adjustments as needed. It is recommended to initially start with soft foods and liquids and to cut food in small pieces.

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT DENTURES
Dentures are a way of replacing missing teeth for many people. They consist of artificial teeth attached to a plastic, gum-like structure. Together, they imitate the appearance and feel of your natural teeth and gums completely.
If you’re considering getting complete dentures, you have probably already heard of immediate dentures and conventional dentures. If not, our team at Mint Leaf Dental is here to educate you on the matter perfectly! Immediate dentures are pre-made, complete dentures. Once you decide to get complete dentures, you will be encouraged to order immediate dentures for yourself. Right after you get your teeth removed, you’ll be able to wear the immediate dentures while the extraction site heals.
Immediate dentures are designed to help you continue your daily routines without disruption and going through the hassle of not having any teeth for weeks. However, they are not a permanent solution. As weeks pass after having your teeth extracted, your gums and bones will shrink as they heal. This can make it harder for you to continue wearing your immediate dentures as they may become somewhat ill-fitting. When your gums and bones have thoroughly healed, it’s time for a denture replacement.
Teeth Replacement options!
Our conventional dentures will be your pal for the long run. They are made after your gums and bones have undergone every little change and adjustment and are now in their final form. Conventional dentures take between 2 to 4 weeks to prepare and once they are installed on top of your gums, you’ll forget you ever had your teeth removed. They’ll be the perfect match for every nook and cranny of your mouth.
All we’ve been doing so far is talking about complete dentures, which are used if one has lost all the teeth in their jaw. There are still situations for patients who have some missing teeth. This calls for partial dentures or dental bridges. A dental bridge is an artificial tooth attached to a dental crown and that plastic, gum-like structure we talked to you about. To get dental bridges, you must have one or two healthy, sturdy teeth on either side of the missing teeth.
Partial dentures can also be removable depending on your personal preferences, needs, and budget.
At Mint Leaf Dental, our dentists are here to help you find an answer to all your denture questions and get the best denture for your specific case. We offer a wide range of denture services and can help you with conventional dentures, immediate dentures, and dental bridges. All you need to do is to give us a call!
