According to the timing of denture making, it can be divided into immediate denture, removable denture, fixed denture, complete denture and implant denture. In addition to immediate dentures, the timing of making each denture is also related to many factors, such as residual roots, full crowns, complete teeth, soft and hard tissues and so on.
In addition, different types of dentures have different waiting times:
Transitional denture (immediate denture): Denture can be worn 30 minutes after tooth extraction, which is mainly suitable for temporary use of anterior teeth with high aesthetic requirements.
Removable dentures (removable dentures): Generally, it is 2-3 months after tooth extraction (the waiting time of residual roots depends on the specific situation, for example, the root is very short, and teeth can even be planted about 1 month after tooth extraction). Removable denture can be implanted when alveolar bone absorption is basically stable, and it needs to be reexamined and adjusted appropriately in the future.
Fixed dentures are usually about 3 months after tooth extraction (the time of residual roots and roots depends on the specific situation), provided that other conditions in the mouth meet the requirements of making fixed dentures.
Dental implant: Generally speaking, 6-8 weeks after tooth extraction (preferably three months later), at this time, the tooth extraction wound is full of new tissue, which is convenient for implantation.
The time required for dental implant after tooth extraction depends on the healing time or the type of dental implant. Therefore, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital for examination and find an expert to draw up a suitable implant.
