What is the Process for Getting Dentures?

Patients often ask, “What do I have to do to get a denture?” When you come in for a consultation, we first ensure there are no roots or other issues in your gums that need to be addressed. Then, we take an impression of your mouth, along with an opposing impression to determine where to set the teeth, and record your bite. These are sent to a lab where the denture-making process begins.

When the initial model comes back with the teeth set in wax, we check to make sure they look nice, fit well in your mouth, and meet your approval. If everything looks good, the dentures are finalized and will be ready for insertion at your next visit. If you’re interested in getting dentures, please call our office at 31 Maple Road, and we’ll be happy to assist you.
