Reply to Help! I am NOT getting immediate Dentures

Posted: July 20, 2011 4:19 pm

This is the same route I'm taking.  I had all my back teeth extracted on May 18th and didn't start my impressions until July 6th (so that my gums could heal).  I've had 2 add'l appointments since July 6th and I'll finish the extractions and receive my permanent, full dentures July 27th (1 week from today).  I know immediates are nice for those who want or need it done right away...but I am so glad I followed my dentist's advice.  Things have healed nicely and my mouth feels pretty good right now.  When he goes to pull the rest next week - the pain should be bearable since the back is already healed and that's where most of the biting force is.  Good luck :)
