Q. I had my tooth extraction (tooth #31). Can the doctor put a temporary bridge on the same day when the extraction was done or he should wait some time? Thanks.
A. I would fit a temporary bridge , denture or an implant at the same time depending on the health of the gum and bone

How long should l leave after having an extraction before having a bridge? Many thanks,
Between 3 to 6 months depending on how much tooth was imbedded in the gum and bone
