Receiving dentures can be a transformative experience, significantly improving not just oral function but also enhancing overall confidence. For individuals considering getting dentures, understanding the process can help alleviate any concerns and prepare for the journey ahead. Here is what to expect when getting dentures at Meade Family Dentistry.
The initial step typically involves a comprehensive consultation with Joseph Meade DDS to assess your dental situation. This consultation includes a thorough examination of your mouth, gums, and existing teeth, followed by a detailed discussion regarding options available. It is during this stage that you will receive personalized recommendations tailored to your specific needs.
Once the decision to proceed with dentures is made, impressions of your gums will be taken to create custom-fitted dentures that not only fit well but also look natural. Depending on individual needs, there are various types of dentures, including complete and partial options. Your dentist will explain the differences and help you choose the most suitable type for your situation.
Following the impressions, a series of appointments will take place to ensure the fit and functionality of the dentures. It is common for individuals to feel some discomfort initially as their mouth adjusts to the new prosthetics. That is why Meade Family Dentistry emphasizes ongoing support and communication throughout the adjustment period, allowing clients to share any concerns they may have as they grow accustomed to their new smile.
