Instantly Fix Your Smile and Restore Missing Teeth

Are you looking for a solution to restore your smile and boost your confidence? Immediate dentures offer a quick and effective way to regain your dental aesthetics and oral functionality. At Buck Family Dentistry in Creston, IA, Dr. Michael Buck and his dedicated team specialize in providing top-notch immediate dentures that restore smile functionality and aesthetics.

What Are Immediate Dentures?

Immediate dentures, also known as temporary dentures, are prosthetic dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth on the same day they are extracted. This means you don't have to go without teeth during the healing process. Dr. Buck's skillful approach ensures that patients leave the dental office with a functional and natural-looking smile immediately after extractions.

Benefits of Immediate Dentures

Opting for immediate dentures with Dr. Buck offers various benefits:

Immediate Aesthetics: You’ll walk out of our Creston dental office with a complete set of teeth, preserving your smile and facial structure.
Minimal Adjustment Period: Since you start wearing dentures immediately, you quickly adapt to their feel and function.
Protection for Healing Gums: Immediate dentures shield the extraction sites, promoting healing and preventing infections.
Enhanced Confidence: Restored aesthetics and oral functionality lead to a renewed sense of confidence.

Candidacy for Immediate Dentures

Immediate dentures are an ideal option for individuals who:

Want to restore their smile without waiting for an extended healing period after extractions.
Seek a temporary solution while waiting for their permanent dentures.
Wish to avoid the discomfort of being without teeth during the healing process.

Call our Creston, IA, office at 641-782-4747 to schedule your denture consultation. Dr. Buck assesses your oral health and discusses your preferences to determine if immediate dentures are the right choice for you.

How Do Immediate Dentures Work?

Initial Assessment and Impressions

Dr. Buck starts by conducting a comprehensive oral examination and discussing your expectations. Impressions of your existing teeth and gums are taken, serving as a foundation for crafting your custom immediate dentures.

Extraction and Placement

On the day of the procedure, any necessary extractions are performed. Once the extractions are complete, your custom immediate dentures are carefully placed, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.

Follow-Up Appointments

As your gums heal and adjust to the dentures, follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress. Dr. Buck makes any necessary adjustments to enhance the fit and comfort of your dentures.

Caring for Immediate Dentures

Proper care is essential to maintain the longevity and appearance of your immediate dentures:

Daily Cleaning: Remove and clean your dentures daily using a denture brush and mild cleaner.
Proper Storage: When not wearing your dentures, store them in water or a denture solution to prevent them from drying out.
Regular Check-Ups: Schedule regular follow-up appointments with Dr. Buck to ensure your dentures fit well and address any issues promptly.

My family and I have been going to Buck Family Dentistry for over 5 years. Some of the services we have received are: check-ups, pediatric exams and cleanings, pediatric fillings, orthodontics, tongue tie issues, and traumatic injuries to teeth. I have nervously called on many occasions and Dr. Buck and his entire team are sure to calm my fears! Dr. Buck and entire staff are nothing short of amazing along with being very compassionate! I would hands down recommend them to everyone.

Buck Family Dentistry is the friendliest and most comfortable dentist office I’ve every visited. The moment you walk in the door you are greeted with people who genuinely ask how your family is. Once in a chair, whether it’s for a routine cleaning or more abrasive work, Dr. Michael Buck makes you feel comfortable and always makes sure you are happy. I had Invisalign put on 6 months ago and it was the easiest process ever and so happy with my results so far!

Dr. Michael Buck is a very knowledgable and highly skilled dentist. He has the most up-to-date dental equipment, is incredibly friendly, and explains procedures and options so that the patient can understand them and make their decision. I recently had a crown replaced and it was all down within two same-day sessions. The fit is perfect! I would highly recommend him to anyone needing dental work.

I only have great things to say about my experiences with Buck Family Dentistry and just when I thought it couldn’t get better, I started my Invisalign treatment. I’m one of those who thought, ”Oh I don’t need it but I want it!” Turns out… I needed it! My bite is so much better, the tooth that was out of place and causing pain is in place and not hurting. I have completely stopped clenching my jaw when I sleep, and my smile is exactly how I imagined it should look! All in all, one of the best investments in myself I have ever made!
