How does the denture fitting process work...
...and what should you be prepared for?
First, you will need to have a consultation with your clinical dental technician to determine the best type of dentures for your needs and budget. They will also take impressions of your mouth and teeth to create a custom-made denture.
Next, you will have a trial fitting to check the fit, comfort and appearance of your denture. You can make any adjustments or changes at this stage before the final denture is made.
Finally, you will receive your final denture and learn how to care for it properly. You may experience some soreness, discomfort or difficulty speaking or eating at first, but this will improve over time as you get used to your denture.
Getting dentures can improve your quality of life and boost your confidence. If you have any questions or concerns about the denture fitting process, don’t hesitate to contact us today!
