No, there is nothing painful about getting dentures. You may need to have some other treatments done before you get fitted for dentures. For example, you may need gum disease treatment, bone grafting, or dental extraction, or dental implants before your mouth is ready to receive dentures. There can be some post-operative discomfort associated with those treatments, but we’ll make sure your mouth is healed and comfortable before moving on to the next step.
We will discuss your treatment needs with you to make sure you understand the risks and your treatment alternatives and we will let you know what we can do to help you mitigate any potential discomfort.
