Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I hope you are doing good. The extracted teeth have to be replaced. No need to replace wisdom teeth. But the replacement has to be done after complete healing of the wound. The replacement can be a removable partial denture or a fixed partial denture. It can be a flexible, removable partial denture, or in fixed dentures, it can be implanted. It depends on the bone density and requirements.

If your current dentures do not fit well, you can check for correction and try it. Even after certain trimming of the denture, if it still does not fit, you can change to a new one. I suggest you take an intraoral clinical picture and consult me for further details.

Hope I have clarified your query.

Thank you.
