objective: an immediate complete denture is fabricated before the extraction of all teeth. it has several advantages such as preservation of esthetics, muscular tone, normal speech and reduction of post-operative pain. this report describes a method of using patient’s current fixed partial denture (fpd) for single-appointment construction of interim immediate denture.   case: we used patient’s ...

BACKGROUND Bone preservation is an essential issue in the context of last teeth extraction and complete edentulism. The intended treatment, whether a complete denture or an implant placement, is facilitated with a voluminous residual ridge. Bone resorption after multiple extractions has not been as well studied as the bone resorption that occurs after the extraction of a single tooth. Recent ad...

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of flask types, post-pressing times and base regions on the base adaptation of maxillary and mandibular complete dentures. Denture bases were waxed in stone casts and randomly divided into six groups (n=10), according to conventional and double flasks inclusion, and immediate and 6 hours post-pressing times. Denture bases were polymerized in water bath at...

PURPOSE To compare the changes in the occlusal vertical dimension, activity of masseter muscles and biting force after insertion of immediate denture constructed with conventional, tooth-supported and Implant-supported immediate mandibular complete denture. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were selected and treatment was carried out with all the three different concepts i.e, immediate denture c...

The aim of this non-randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life and masticatory efficiency of patients rehabilitated with mandibular two-implant overdentures with immediate loading or conventional dentures. Fifty completely edentulous patients wearing bimaxillary conventional dentures, for at least one year, were recruited. The patients were then...

The aim of the present study was to report a modified protocol for immediate implant-supported full-arch rehabilitation on three interforaminal implants and two implants placed in the posterior mandible, one on each side. This article describes a treatment protocol that can be used to reduce the time required for the fabrication and placement of an implant-supported prosthesis. It is described ...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of the study was to investigate denture satisfaction related to treatment modality, age, gender, denture quality, chewing ability, denture experience and patients' attitude towards denture wearing. METHODS In a randomized controlled clinical trial 74 patients who required immediate denture therapy were treated either with complete immediate dentures, or with complete im...

The aim of the present clinical report was to describe the use of a patient's extensive fixed prosthesis, where the supporting teeth were hopeless, for fabricating an interim immediate complete denture. The present procedure was used to replicate the vertical dimension, phonetic and aesthetic of the existing fixed prostheses as part of an immediate denture and a final complete denture.
