Did you get false teeth after your gums healed? Do you wear them alot?

I am having all my teeth removed tomorrow, Medicaid wont pay for false teeth until my gums completely heal. I have been told that unless I get dentures right away I will never wear them and it will be painful to try. I am planning on getting dentures in a few months when my gums heal. Has anyone done this ? Did it work out OK? I mean do you actually wear your dentures ?

The purpose of putting dentures in right after the teeth are extracted is to have something in your mouth to function with while the healing process takes place. These are known as immediate or healing dentures.





Once all of the bone and tissue has healed and recontoured then a set of final dentures can be fabricated. The longer the healing time, the better the fit of the final dentures. In my practice, my patients wait 6 months until the final dentures are made. In the meantime, we work with the healing dentures so they can get used to them and have something to function and chew with.





It%26#039;s not absolutely necessary to have the immediate dentures but be prepared to %26quot;gum it%26quot; and you%26#039;ll have a caved in appearance. And don%26#039;t be in a rush to get the final dentures. Let that tissue and bone heal my friend!!!!





Good luck
Reply:That does not sound rite. Any body I know has gotten dentures the same day so that the gums can conform to the new teeth.
Reply:there is a kind of dentures that you put right after the extraction of your teeth, its called an immediate dentures, they help to the healing process of your gums,and also to get used to the sensation of the dentures. The can be placed about a day or two after the extraction and with regular cleaning and disinfecting they will mold your gums into a good host for the real dentures
