Instructions for patients who receive immediate dentures
RA Holt Jr
Adverse physiologic and psychologic effects may occur in patients who receive immediate dentures. These effects may be caused by ill-fitting dentures that result from oral changes that occur after insertion. To improve the comfort of and acceptance by patients with immediate dentures, it is suggested that written instructions be given to each patient before insertion of the dentures.
