Immediate Denture Services – Smile Without Waiting
At Prestige Denture Clinic in Vancouver, WA, we proudly offer immediate denture services to patients throughout Southwest Washington and the greater Portland metro area. As the name suggests, an immediate denture is a complete or partial denture that is placed immediately following the extraction of your natural teeth—often on the very same day. This means you can leave our clinic with a full smile without experiencing any time without teeth.
What Are Immediate Dentures?
Immediate dentures are custom-made prosthetics designed in advance and fitted right after your natural teeth are removed. This innovative approach allows you to maintain your appearance, speak clearly, and eat with confidence without the embarrassment or discomfort of being toothless during the healing phase.
Benefits of Immediate Dentures
- No Toothless Days: Unlike conventional dentures, which require you to wait weeks after extractions for your gums and bones to heal, immediate dentures provide an instant replacement for your missing teeth.
- Faster Return to Normal Function: Since immediate dentures are in place right after your extractions, you can begin eating and talking normally much sooner compared to standard dentures.
- Continuous Support: Immediate dentures help protect your gums and promote healing by covering the extraction sites immediately.
Important Considerations
While immediate dentures offer the significant advantage of instant tooth replacement, they generally cost more than conventional dentures due to the additional planning and customization involved. Additionally, because your gums and underlying bones will naturally change shape as they heal, immediate dentures typically require a reline about six months after placement to ensure continued comfort and proper fit.
Relining involves adjusting the inner surface of your dentures to better match the contours of your healed gums, preventing looseness and discomfort. Our team at Prestige Denture Clinic will guide you through this process and provide ongoing care to maintain the fit and function of your dentures over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of immediate dentures?
Immediate dentures have many benefits for the patient:
- There is no waiting period to be without teeth, so you don’t have to take time off from work for healing.
- Many patients get really frustrated and depressed while they are waiting in the healing process without their teeth so Immediate Denture will help in these issues.
- Immediate Denture will help get you to a normal speech faster.
- You will use your immediate denture right away as your gum will adapt to the new denture.
What will happen after my gums heal?
Immediate Dentures needs some time adjusting to fit the gum area as the healing process can take up to 6-9 months. After your gum is completely healed Immediate Dentures need to be relined permanently.
Do you recommend Immediate Denture?
Yes, I recommend immediate dentures, as they have many benefits for the patients. The best option is the 2-step process of 2 dentures.
The first set of dentures is immediate, which is also called a transition denture, which will help in the first year while you are going through the healing process, temporary relines, and then permanent relines. After you are fully healed, this set of dentures could be used as a backup for you.
After you are fully healed, you will get a 2nd set of dentures with premium teeth; these will be your permanent dentures.
