Is it possible to fit the bridge immediately after tooth extraction?

No. This is because that the gums have to be healed properly after extracting the tooth before fitting the bridge; in some people it takes even 6 months for the gums to heal. You may have to wear a temporary denture in the interim period prior to fitting of the bridge.
