The Process: Tooth Extraction to Denture Placement
At Stony Point Dental Care, Dr. Mishel will advise you as to which particular system of dentures would be best in your case, taking into consideration health, convenience and cost.
CONSULTATION
At your consultation, Dr. Mishel will determine if dentures are right for you. Your doctor will examine your mouth, take x-rays, and decide if your gums are healthy enough to support dentures.
TREATMENT PLANNING
After you’ve been approved for treatment, We will create a plan for your dentures and go over it with you so you know exactly what to expect. From there, our team will schedule your impressions and tooth extraction appointments.
IMPRESSIONS
Next, We will take impressions to ensure that your dentures will sit completely to your gum line and fit comfortably in your mouth once they are ready to be worn.
TOOTH EXTRACTION
During the extraction process, We will numb your mouth with anaesthetic and/or use sedation to ensure a comfortable, painless procedure. Temporary dentures may also be provided after the extraction to protect your gums during the healing process.
HEALING & AFTER CARE
After the extraction procedure, make sure to get plenty of rest for at least 24 hours. We will provide detailed instructions so that you can remain comfortable and pain free while you heal. While your prosthetic is being made, you will discuss with your dentist the shade, size, and shape of teeth that you want for your new set of dentures.
FITTING AND ADJUSTMENTS
When your dentures are complete, you will return to the office to begin the fitting process. Adjustments can be made to ensure your dentures are as comfortable and functional as possible. Plan on returning to the office for yearly checkups on your dentures, but know that a set of dentures can last you up to 10 years if you take good care of them.
