The Interim Denture – A Case Report

Abstract

There are a lot of clinical situations when a denture made entirely in acrylic resin is the most appropriate answer due to the low cost and the easy way to modify it. Using an interim denture the dentist can appreciate if a higher VDO will be supported by the edentulous patient, can decide what teeth are useful for the final RPD and can have a clearer idea about retention, support and esthetic solutions.
