Conventional complete denture apart from all its merits has the prominent disadvantage of leaving the patient for a brief period of edentulous state till definitive prosthesis can be fabricated. Therefore, the concept of immediate denture is to preserve the jaw relation, keep the patient habituated to the complete denture and in the process preserve the esthetic concern of the patient. In the process, the psychological well-being of the patient is preserved as the patient is not without teeth for any prolonged period. The challenge in this technique is to record the edentulous and dentulous portion of the arch in conjecture with each other so that the final impression is closest to the intraoral situation, enabling us to provide the best results in short-and long-term of complete denture fabrication. |
