Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / April 2005Periodontist advises against immediate denture.
I'm having several teeth extracted and implants placed. My perio advised against an immediate denture. He said that one would press the lower gum downward and outward and may affect the implants. He advised that a temporary denture not be worn until three to four weeks after placement of the implants. Much of the research I've done seems to indicate that an immediate denture is common. Is that the case? Thanks Steve_R Usually you can hollow out the inside of the temporary denture so the patient can wear it for smiling and speaking. They often have to stay on soft diets until healed. Each case is different.  Signature~+--~+--~+--~+--~+-- Stephen Mancuso, D.D.S.

However, this is not reasonable if you are talking about front teeth--you will want something there for cosmetic reasons. It is generally possible to make a temporary acrylic base partial that won't put significant pressure on the implant sites. However, if we are talking about back teeth where the biting forces are generally greater, it may be more difficult to make an interim prosthesis that doesn't put significant pressure on the area. Depending on the position of the remaining teeth, a device like an Eastflex monodont may be usable as an interim device without putting any pressure at all on the area.

[quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Take out the G'RBAGE > wubbabubbazG@RBAGEyahoo.com This is a situation where the remaining lower teeth are being extracted and implants placed at the same time. ( Six implants on teeth 19/21/23/26/28/30). I believe a couple of these implants are going where a tooth is being extracted.

I think that in most cases, immediate loading of the implant is contraindicated. YMMV -- W_B Take out the G'RBAGE wubbabubbazG@RBAGEyahoo.com my personal experience. hold your own urine in the month whenever you can. the periodontal symptom will be GONE in no more than 3 days. the gum becomes stronger too. the type of urine to use: urine yellowish in color has more healing power than the urine that has no color. Use the urine that just leave your body. > my personal experience. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > color. > Use the urine that just leave your body. >From your personal experience, how long did you hold your urine in your mouth?? >my personal experience. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >color. >Use the urine that just leave your body.
