Immediate denture with unusual bone morphology: A clinical report

Abstract

Construction of immediate denture is always challenging, as the arrangement of artificial teeth cannot be observed at a try-in appointment. This report describes the clinical case of a patient presenting unusual large alveolar ridges, bony prominences, severe undercuts, and bulbous tuberosities, rendering the arbitrary teeth setting and positioning difficult. An extensive surgical correction of alveolar ridges was required to facilitate the placement of an immediate denture, satisfying the patient demands.
