McIntyre Dentures & Extractions In Gulfport, Mississippi!
Healing Denture Package
Why Should You Get A Healing Denture?
Healing after extractions takes 9-12 months. Because your gums and bone shrink drastically after extractions. An immediate denture is worn for the first year allowing you to heal.
Remember, getting dentures is a process - not an event. The Healing Denture Package (HDP) supports you during this transition.
What Comes With Our Healing Package?
Immediate or Temporary Denture
Your first set of dentures, called immediate or temporary dentures, will be worn during the healing process after having your teeth extracted.
Relines
As your gums and bone shrink during the healing stage, the denture will become too big. As part of the HDP, two temporary soft liners will be placed and a permanent hard reline. The liners help keep the immediate denture fitting as comfortable as possible.
Adjustments
Wearing a new denture takes some getting used to. Often an adjustment will need to be made to the denture to help buff out any place which may rub and cause discomfort.
Second or Final Denture
After your gums and bone have had ample time to shrink and heal, then it will be time for your second or final denture. New impressions will be made for a new denture.
