At Brace Dental Clinic, we understand that the journey to restoring your smile and functionality with complete dentures is a significant one. Whether you’re considering complete dentures for the first time or are transitioning from an old set, our team is here to guide you through each step of the process, ensuring comfort, confidence, and clarity.
Complete dentures are custom-made dental appliances that replace all of the natural teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. They are a viable solution for patients who have lost all of their teeth due to various reasons, including tooth decay, gum disease, or injury. Complete dentures not only restore the appearance of your smile but also help in chewing and speaking, which are essential aspects of daily life.
1. Initial Consultation and Examination
The journey begins with a comprehensive examination by our experienced dentists. During this visit, we assess your oral health, including the condition of your gums and the bone structure that will support the dentures. We’ll discuss your expectations, lifestyle, and any specific concerns you may have.
2. Custom Impressions
To ensure your dentures fit perfectly, we take detailed impressions of your mouth. These impressions serve as the foundation for creating a custom denture that fits snugly and comfortably. Accurate impressions are crucial for preventing issues like slipping or discomfort once the dentures are in place.
3. Bite Registration
This step involves recording the way your jaws come together. This is important for ensuring that your dentures will allow you to chew properly and that they align well with your natural bite. At this stage, we may also determine the best shade and shape of the teeth in your dentures to match your facial structure and aesthetic preferences.
4. Try-In
Before the final dentures are made, a trial denture (also known as a wax try-in) is created. This try-in allows you to see and feel what your new dentures will be like. It’s an opportunity to make any adjustments in fit, shape, or color before the final product is crafted. Your feedback is invaluable during this stage.
5. Final Fabrication
Once you’re satisfied with the trial dentures, we proceed to the final fabrication. Your dentures will be crafted using high-quality materials designed to be durable, comfortable, and natural-looking. Our dental technicians pay meticulous attention to detail to ensure that your new dentures meet the highest standards of quality and aesthetics.
6. Delivery and Fitting
On the day of delivery, your final dentures are ready to be placed. We’ll carefully fit the dentures in your mouth, making any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit. We take the time to ensure that you’re comfortable with the feel and function of your new dentures.
7. Post-Delivery Care and Follow-Up
Adjusting to complete dentures takes time, and we’re here to support you throughout this transition. We’ll provide detailed instructions on how to care for your dentures, including cleaning tips and what to expect as you get used to them. Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your progress and make any further adjustments if needed.
