I'm getting upper and. Lower immediates made by another dentist and having another do my few extractions I've also been taking a few teeth out at a time and now I'm getting closer too the front. My question is how long can i hold on too my immediates dentures until i get the rest of my natural teeth out?
I had 9 teeth pulled on top yesterday morning at 8am Got immediate denture put in and I’m still bleeding 😔 is this normal ? When should I take it out ? When should I use the medicated mouthwash I was given by the dentist ?
Wish I had you! I had extractions wednesday and the temps didnt fit at all and now I'm without teeth and my dentist is a greedy jerk who didnt care because he was fighting with his wife why I was in recovery room.
Thank you for your question. If you cannot hand articulate your casts, then you need some way to relating the vertical dimension to the articulator. Record bases are ideal for this and yes it may take another appointment and a lab cost. Some people may try to fake it with a stiff wax or registration material but I think you will be disappointed on delivery with an inaccurate restoration.
Hey Mike, I would check with your lab and see what they are using for your cases. I would recommend a calibrated semi-adjustable that is interchangeable. It is better than a barn door hinge articulator. Should produce a more accurate product requiring less chair-side adjusting. I'm using the Panadent right now that I like.
@@derekgatta7239 Hi Derek, I was looking at the Sam 2 articulator. Sam 3 is just too crazy pricey! The name "Panadent" reminded me that was what I used back in dental school 3 years ago. Thank you!
In my opinion, I would absolutely make your patient immediate dentures. Most patients will not accept walking around with no teeth. This first set gives them an opportunity to practice speech and muscle coordination with these restorations.
And it does take a LOT of practice and patience. I've had my immediate dentures for just a little over five weeks now, and while the upper plate has gotten to the point that it almost feels natural (especially since my dentist finally let me start using adhesive), I'm still struggling with the lower plate because that thing flops around in my mouth no matter what adhesive I use, which makes eating pretty much impossible as long as I have them in my mouth (and which also continues to create mouth sores in my lower mouth, especially at the very back where my rear molars used to be).
My insurance wouldn't pay for immediate dentures, I have been without teeth since August of this year. I have state insurance and am disabled. I go for my first wax tryin in a few weeks. My dentist didn't take any measurements, didn't ask about tooth size, I am so worried I am going to end up with a set of dentures I can't wear:(((
Ask your dentist questions and try to be eager and interested in the process. Maybe that will inspire them to communicate and explain more about the process.

Is there a way to get a stable bite reliably without using a record base? Just looking for a quicker option, thanks!

Do you have any recommended articulator for most GP cases?
