| Summary: | An immediate denture is a denture that could replace the teeth immediately after the teeth are extracted. Therefore patient doesn’t experience an edentulous period. This study aims to assess the ability of lower immediate removable partial dentures as a prosthodontic treatment for cases in which anterior teeth have lost their periodontal support. A 35-year-old male patient complained of difficulty eating because his lower front teeth were loose, and the patient did not want to appear edentulous. Intraoral examination showed grade 3 mobility in the lower anterior teeth region. Case management involves anamnesis, clinical examination, and prosthodontics rehabilitation using lower immediate removable partial dentures. This case report concludes that immediate removable partial dentures can be used in anterior teeth that have lost periodontal support. |
