Frequently asked questions
How long do you have to wait to get dentures after teeth have been extracted?
After a single tooth extraction, you should allow up to two weeks for the socket to heal sufficiently enough to insert the denture without disrupting further healing. However, if you have multiple teeth extracted, it may take between 3-6 months to allow for gum recession to settle. In this case, you might consider an immediate denture which is fitted after natural teeth have been removed.
Why use a Tweed Heads denture clinic instead of a normal Tweed Heads dentist?
You may consider a Tweed Heads denture clinic over a Tweed Heads dentist because generally, dentists pass denture manufacture over to a dental laboratory. Often these facilities are overseas. Using a Tweed Heads denture clinic with a local dental laboratory means less waiting time and all denture materials and their manufacture are overseen by strict Australian regulatory standards.
How many different types of dentures are there?
Each denture is customised to your unique needs. Whether you are a candidate for full dentures, a partial denture or even flexible partials, for example, your dental prosthetist will be only too happy to help and advise on the choice of materials and denture configurations. Our article Different types of partial dentures will help further explain.
Difference in cost between different types of dentures?
A cost comparison between different types of dentures can vary depending on the choice of customisation you and your prosthetist decide upon. Please consult our denture cost page or visit our clinic for a no-obligation, free consultation, and quote.
