Answers:

Immediates dentures you will get immediatley as soon as your teeth are extracted, they are also called healing dentures because your gums will swell on about the third day after extractions and it will take 6 months to a year for them to be completley healed you will have to go to the Dentist for adjusments because as your gums shrink it will rub a sore spot at certin places and the Dentist can just shave the denture down a little bit where the sore spot is ,you could have as many as 10 adjustments in this year, in the beginning it is more ( the first 3 weeks ) Some people such as I have chose to keep my immediate permantly it is for you to choose.New permanants dentures are known to be lighter and more comfortable because after 1 year you go back and take another immpression and all the gum tissue is healed so naturally the denture will be a better fit and you wont have to use any adhesives to hold them in.
