Hi:You can definitely have an extraction and a temporary bridge on the same day.  You have to make sure all is coordianted in advance with your dentist.  Lab processed temporary bridges can last up to 6 months.Best,Dr. Maddahi

Hi Maria,
Yes, extraction and temporary bridge can be done in one day provided the abutment teeth are sound and if your dentist feels comfortable about it. I typically bone graft the socket, suture and then place the temporary bridge until the area heals in a few weeks for final impression. Alternatively you can also wear a removable flipper until the area is healed.
