Unfortunately this is an elective procedure and dentists in many jurisdictions are only allowed to render emergency or urgent procedures.
Yes, it is possible to get dentures during this crisis. As states begin to lift restrictions, many dentists are returning to work so dentures can now be done under certain guidelines as recommended by the CDC and ADA.
Sure, you can do it if the dentist or denturist will do this for you when this is a non-emergency procedure.
At this time, the American Dental Association is recommending that only emergency dental procedures be performed. These include root canals, abscesses, and facial trauma.
The ADA has tentatively set April 26th as the date when non-emergent procedures, such as dentures, can be performed. Keep in touch with your general Dentist to see if this date changes.
