Complete Smile Restoration, Tailored to Your Healing Timeline

Complete Dentures at South Scottsdale Denture Care

For those needing to replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw, complete dentures offer a proven, practical solution. At South Scottsdale Dental Care, we provide a variety of full denture options—whether you need a temporary set right after tooth removal or a long-term, comfortable replacement designed to last.

Knowing the difference between immediate, interim, and complete dentures helps you to choose the best option for your needs, lifestyle, and long-term oral health.

 

Types of Full Dentures

Complete Dentures

These are the permanent dentures designed to replace all missing teeth in either the upper or lower arch.

  • Purpose: Crafted for long-term function and comfort, these dentures are precisely fitted to your fully healed gums and jaw for maximum stability.

  • Timing: Typically placed 6 to 8 weeks after extractions, once healing is complete.

  • Options Available: Choose from a range of solutions, including Conventional Complete Dentures, Implant-Supported Dentures, and Snap-On Dentures—each offering unique benefits based on your lifestyle and preferences.

Interim Dentures

Also called transitional dentures, interim dentures are a short-term solution used during the healing process.

  • Purpose: Designed to restore appearance and basic function immediately after tooth removal, these dentures also serve as a guide for crafting your permanent set.

  • Timing: Created in advance and placed right after your extractions to help you transition smoothly while your gums heal.

  • Good to Know: Many patients choose to keep their interim dentures as a backup once their final dentures are complete.

Immediate Dentures

Immediate dentures are a permanent denture option placed on the same day as your tooth extractions.

  • Timeline: These dentures are made ahead of time and inserted immediately after your teeth are removed.

  • Purpose: They provide an instant, functional smile—eliminating the need to go without teeth during the healing process.

  • Important Notes: As your gums and jaw naturally shift during healing, immediate dentures often require follow-up adjustments or relining to ensure a secure, comfortable long-term fit.
