How Are Dentures Made?

Creating a set of dentures that fits well and looks right isn’t an overnight process. Here’s how it typically works:

  1. Impressions : The dentist takes a mold of your gums and any remaining teeth.
  2. Wax Model : A trial version is made to check the fit and appearance.
  3. Material Selection : Dentures are crafted from acrylic resin, porcelain, or flexible polymer.
  4. Final Fitting & Adjustments : Once the dentures are ready, they’re adjusted to ensure comfort and stability.

This process can take a few weeks, but once it’s done, you have a custom-fit smile that’s made just for you.
