Immediate prosthesis as treatment in multiple extractions. case report.

In the present article the clinical and laboratory procedures that were carried out for the elaboration of an immediate prosthesis are described. The importance of preserving the vertical dimension of occlusion and in this way leading a transition from a partial dentate to an edentulous state with a bilateral balanced occlusion scheme is emphasized. In this way, the patient adapts to the use of dental prostheses, decreasing the impact of psychosocial deterioration when completely edentulous with the advantages of preserving the shape and height of the alveolar processes, avoiding their collapse.
