Requirements of/for an Immediate denture


Requirements:
  • A denture is not living tissue but it must be accepted as part of a system composed of living tissue.
For success the following requirements:
    1. compatibility with surrounding oral environment
    2. restoration of masticatory (with in limits)
    3. harmony with the function of speech, respiration (breathing), deglutition (swallowing)
    4. aesthetic acceptability
    5. preservation of the remaining hard and soft tissue support
(Biggest challenge – to occlude and evaluate)
