What are immediate dentures?

If you're in need of full dentures because you've lost your teeth due to decay, illness, or injury, you could be a perfect candidate for immediate dentures. Immediate dentures offer you the benefit and convenience of never having to be without teeth.

One thing to consider, however, is that immediate dentures need to be regularly relined. Relining helps ensure a comfortable, precise fit as your mouth heals from the loss of your natural teeth and the transition to dentures.

What are partial dentures?

The most common type of partial dentures has a metal framework. The metal framework provides strong support and helps with chewing when you are missing back teeth. Partial dentures with metal frames securely anchor to your existing teeth and stay in place without the use of dental adhesives.

A more cost-effective alternative is acrylic partial dentures. They tend to be cheaper than partials with metal frames, but they also need to be replaced more often. They're often used as transitional dentures, a short-term solution for replacing front teeth while the dentist constructs permanent bridges or partial dentures.
