Immediate Complete Dentures Flashcards
Inflammatory papillary hyperplasia
“IPH”
A reactive tissue growth usually developing under a denture
Inflammatory papillary hyperplasia
“IPH” Occurs on
hard palate beneath denture base
what does IPH look like
Asymptomatic red or pink nodules on mucosa of hard palate and
occasionally the residual ridge
IPH
Directly related to (2)
constant wearing of ill-fitting denture and poor oral
hygiene
IPH
— Syndrome
Combination
IPH
— frequently present
Candida
Immediate dentures- 2 popular protocols
Conventional
Interim / transitional
Conventional
reline the immediate denture after
healing and ridge stable (6 months) ONE denture
Interim / transitional –
aim is to use for short
period, then it is replaced by the definitive
prosthesis when healing is complete TWO dentures
Immediate Dentures
Fabricated prior to
extracting natural teeth
conventional/classic immediate denture
— is done
relining/refitting
interim/transitional/nontraditional immediate denture
new CD is made
Immediate Complete Dentures
Advantages (3)
Prevent patient embarrassment
Provide guide for optimal esthetics
Provide guide for OVD
Immediate Complete Dentures More Advantages (7)
maintenance of a patients appearance
circumoral support, muscle tone, vertical dimension of occlusion, jaw relationship, and face height can be maintained. the tongue will not spread out as a result of tooth loss
less postoperative pain as extraction sites are protected
easier to duplicate (if desired) the natural tooth shape and position
adaptation easier. speech and mastication are rarely compromised, and nutrition can be maintained
availability of tissue conditioning material
patients psychological and social well being is preserved
Immediate Dentures
Disadvantages (4)
Increased complexity –impressions, CJR
Lack of clinical evaluation of trial denture-anterior esthetics
Increased maintenance
Greater # visits = more cost
Immediate Dentures More Disadvantages (5)
immediate dentures are more challenging
the anterior ridge undercut (by the presence of the remaining teeth) may interfere with the impression procedures
the presence of different numbers of remaining teeth in various locations frequently leads to recording incorrectly the centric relation position
no denture tooth try in in precludes knowing what the denture will actually look like on the day of insertion
more chair time, additional appointments, and therefore increased costs
explanation to the patient concerning immediate dentures (4)
do not fit as well as normal CD
the pain of the extractions, in addition to the sore spots caused by the immediate denture will make the first week or two after insertion difficult
it will be difficult to eat and speak initially
the esthetics may be unpredictable because an anterior try in is not possible
