Abstract :

An immediate denture is a prosthesis placed immediately following tooth extraction due to esthetic reason. It is used to enhance esthetics, protect extraction related surgical wound and provide function during healing. This type of transitional denture is often associated with a larger number of teeth being extracted on the day of prosthesis insertion and a higher degree of unpredictability relative to anticipated healing. Consequently, the required treatment addresses an immediate denture that will ultimately be transitioned into a definitive prosthesis.
