Who could this be for?
Complete dentures may fit when you no longer have any teeth of your own or when remaining teeth need to be removed. During the intake we discuss your oral situation, health, expectations, appearance and daily wishes.
The possible contact moments
- Introduction (intake): discuss wishes, oral situation, health, expectations and costs.
- First impression or scan: create an initial registration as a basis for the treatment design.
- Final impression or scan, if needed: accurately register the mouth for the final fit.
- Bite registration, if necessary: record the position, height, and mutual relationship of the jaws.
- Try-in, if needed: check shape, position, bite and appearance together and adjust if necessary.
- Fitting: place the definitive prosthesis, check it and provide maintenance explanations.
- Aftercare: guide adjustment, assess pressure points and adjust if necessary.
The precise route and number of appointments may differ per patient.
Aftercare
After placement, adjustment may be required. A pressure spot, pain, a sharp edge or problems with eating and speaking are reasons to contact us. Do not adjust the prosthesis yourself.
Costs and reimbursement
You will receive a written cost estimate in advance. The final reimbursement depends on your insurance or health insurance fund, policy conditions, contracting, patient contribution, deductible and any prior permission. If in doubt, always ask for written confirmation.
