Abstract

Loss of teeth in adult needs to be replaced with dentures to restore masticatory and esthetic functions. Dentures are made immediately before extraction and used immediately after extraction, so that they do not change in appearance or function. If patient has restorable teeth, the teeth can be used as denture support. Overdentures supported by one or more restored teeth or implants as periodontal and mucosal support to improve durability of the denture.
