Article Abstract
Electromyographic studies demonstrated that immediate dentures ensure full-value repair of the functions of the masticatory, temporal, and suprahyoid muscles. Six months after fitting with dentures the coordination of antagonist and synergist muscles was impaired in but 18% of patients. The author emphasizes that immediate dentures are the most rational and pathogenetically valid orthodontic treatment preventing maxillodental deformations.
