Immediate dentures are provided the same day as the extraction of teeth and are designed so the patient does not have any gaps. They should be seen as a temporary option to replace teeth until the patient has fully healed following their extractions. It is very difficult to get these entirely accurate as with conventional dentures. Therefore, it is entirely normal for the patient to experience looseness or difficulty of the fit as the soft tissues heal and so patients may need to return on a few occasions over the following 2-3 months to reline the denture or adjust it.
