What is Temporary Denture (1 Jaw)?
A temporary denture is a removable prosthesis designed to replace missing teeth on an interim basis while you heal from extractions or wait for implants and permanent restorations. It restores your ability to eat, speak, and smile during the transition period. MedProper Istanbul fabricates temporary dentures in-house for quick turnaround.
How Does Temporary Denture (1 Jaw) Work?
- 1Impressions of your upper or lower jaw are taken, along with bite registration and shade selection.
- 2The dental laboratory fabricates a custom acrylic denture designed to fit your current gum contour.
- 3At the fitting appointment, the denture is tried in and adjusted for comfort, retention, and bite.
- 4You receive instructions on insertion, removal, cleaning, and when to return for adjustments as gums heal and change shape.
Who is a Good Candidate for Temporary Denture (1 Jaw)?
- Patients who have just had multiple teeth extracted and need immediate tooth replacement
- Individuals undergoing implant treatment who need functional teeth during the 3-6 month healing period
- Those who want to maintain appearance and eating ability while awaiting permanent prosthetics
- Patients transitioning from failing teeth to a full-arch implant solution like All-on-4

Adaptation
Your tongue and cheeks adapt to the new prosthesis. Speech improves. Remove the denture at night to let gums rest.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can eat most foods, but should avoid very hard, sticky, or chewy items that could dislodge or damage the denture. Cut food into small pieces and chew on both sides.
Remove it after meals and brush with a soft brush and mild soap or denture cleaner. Soak overnight in a denture solution. Never use hot water as it can warp the acrylic.
Yes, it is very common. As your gums heal and reshape after extractions, the fit will change. MedProper provides adjustment appointments as part of the service.
