ABSTRACT

This case report details the clinical management and prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient using immediate dentures following the extraction of non-restorable teeth. Immediate dentures provide an effective solution for maintaining aesthetics, function, and patient confidence during the post-extraction healing period. The treatment plan included comprehensive preoperative assessment, precise impression techniques, occlusal registration, and fabrication of the denture prior to surgical extraction. Immediate insertion of the prosthesis ensured the patient was never without teeth, minimizing psychological impact. Post-insertion follow-ups showed favorable adaptation, functional efficiency, and patient satisfaction with minimal adjustments. This case underscores the importance of multidisciplinary planning, patient education, and follow-up in achieving successful outcomes with immediate dentures.
