Can you give me some information on the process of receiving full dentures?

Q.
hi dr shaffie. i have 18 teeth left that are very badly decayed and broken. i think i will need them all  taken out and then i’ll have to have full dentures. if they get taken out would i get some kind of dentures that day till my gums heal? i have no confidence in doing anything and would like to know how long this whole process would take so i can do things i just won’t do looking like this? any other information on the process off getting full dentures would be much appreciated.
thank you for your help, Danny.

Hi, thanks for your question. It is possible that you could have the extraction and an “immediate” denture fitted on the same day. You will have to visit your dentist a couple of weeks previous to the extractions to have impressions to get the dentures ready in time for the treatment. I hope this helps but without seeing you for a consultation, it is quite difficult to answer.
