Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This article presents a rationale for utilizing complete immediate denture therapy, highlighting various advantages, disadvantages, and contraindications for this treatment. Jerbi's technique for presurgical cast carving is reviewed and a unique case report is detailed, involving a 22-year-old patient whose hopelessly debilitated dentition was treated by full-mouth extraction and placement of a maxillary and mandibular complete immediate denture. In addition, a brief review of changing dietary patterns and social habits is presented in relation to the recent escalation of rampant dental caries in youth and young adult patient populations. |
