This manuscript introduces a novel two-step technique for fabricating mobile dentures post-extraction to streamline prosthodontic rehabilitation. The study utilizes various materials, including dental polymers, metals, ceramics, and composite materials, each chosen for their unique properties that contribute to the final prosthesis’s functionality, durability, and esthetics. The detailed procedure involves an initial occlusal registration immediately following tooth extraction, capturing precise occlusal relationships and a comprehensive dental impression. This approach reduces clinical visits and leverages optimal alveolar ridge morphology. The expected results highlight the efficiency of the technique, reducing treatment time without compromising quality and potentially improving patient satisfaction and prosthodontic outcomes. This innovative method conclusively promises rapid, efficient, and patient-centered dental rehabilitation, emphasizing the need for future research to validate its effectiveness and explore long-term outcomes.
