California Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) Written Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

When is an immediate denture most commonly used?

After root canal treatment

After extractions of anterior teeth

An immediate denture is a type of denture that can be inserted immediately after the extraction of natural teeth. This option is most commonly used after the extraction of anterior teeth, as it can help maintain the appearance of the smile and provide temporary support for the lips and cheeks. After root canal treatment, periodontal surgery, or implant placement, the immediate denture may not be necessary or suitable for the patient's needs. Therefore, B is the most appropriate answer as it provides the context for when an immediate denture would be commonly used compared to the other options.
