Pee Dee Implant Center fits same day dentures in Florence, South Carolina for patients across the Pee Dee region. Same day means the denture is made before your teeth come out and fitted at the same appointment, so you never leave without teeth. These are also called immediate dentures. They are made from impressions taken two to three weeks earlier, which is what allows them to go in the moment the extractions are done.
How do same day dentures work?
Impressions and bite records are taken two to three weeks before surgery, while your teeth are still in place. The denture is fabricated from those records in the interim. On surgery day the remaining teeth are extracted and the denture is seated immediately, acting as a bandage over the healing sockets as well as a set of teeth. You wear it continuously for the first 24 hours.
How much do same day dentures cost in Florence, SC?
$1,500 to $3,500 per arch for a conventional immediate denture. A same-day denture retained on mini implants runs $3,500 to $6,000. A same-day fixed arch through All-on-4 runs $20,000 to $30,000. Extractions are priced separately at $250 to $650 per tooth, and a reline three to six months later runs $350 to $650.
Do same day dentures need adjusting afterwards?
Yes, and this is the part patients are not usually warned about. The denture was made against a jaw that still had teeth in it. Once the sockets heal, the ridge resorbs roughly 50 percent of its width in the first year, so the denture loosens. You should expect two to four adjustment visits in the first six months and a hard reline at three to six months. Budget for the reline at the outset rather than treating it as an unexpected bill.
Same day dentures or waiting for conventional dentures?
A conventional denture is made after the gums heal, which means three to six months without teeth but a better initial fit that needs fewer adjustments. An immediate denture costs more overall once relines are counted, and fits less precisely at first. Almost everyone takes the immediate route regardless, because the alternative is half a year without teeth. The honest framing is that you are paying a few hundred dollars in relines to avoid that.
Can I get implants and dentures on the same day?
Yes, in two forms. Mini implants placed flapless can carry a denture the same appointment, because they are loaded through a denture that spreads force across four of them. Standard implants can support an immediate fixed arch where insertion torque reaches 35 Ncm. Both are confirmed on the CBCT beforehand. If you already know you want implants eventually, placing them at extraction time saves you a separate surgery and the bone grafting a resorbed ridge would later need. See implant-supported dentures for the clip-in option.
What can I eat with a new same day denture?
Liquids and soft foods for the first 48 hours, then soft solids for two weeks. Cut food small and chew on both sides evenly, because chewing on one side tips the denture. Nuts, crusty bread, steak and anything sticky come back at six to eight weeks. Most patients report their bite feels normal at three months, once the swelling has fully settled and the first reline is done.
Technician insight
The reline is the conversation practices skip. An immediate denture is made against a jaw that still has teeth in it, and once those sockets heal the fit changes. Anyone quoting you a same-day denture without mentioning a reline three to six months out has quoted you two thirds of the treatment.

How it works
- 1
Impressions Before Surgery
Impressions and bite records are taken two to three weeks ahead, while your teeth are still in place, and the denture is fabricated from them.
- 2
Extraction Day
Remaining teeth are extracted under local anaesthetic with IV sedation available. Any implants planned for the same day are placed in the same sitting.
- 3
Immediate Seating
The denture is fitted straight away and the bite adjusted. It stays in for the first 24 hours, acting as a dressing over the sockets.
- 4
Early Adjustments
Two to four visits over the first six weeks relieve pressure points as swelling subsides.
- 5
Reline at Three to Six Months
A hard reline recaptures the healed ridge shape and restores the fit the denture had on day one.
Pricing
Per-arch ranges for the Florence and Pee Dee area. Extractions and the later reline are priced separately.
