After getting consent Questions mention in OHIP-14 were asked from the patients on 1[st] visit and 2 months later after fabrication of immediate denture to assess the QoL of in these patients. Data was obtained after using SPSS-version 19. For analysis Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test was applied to get results. Probability level of P Results: There was marked improvement in different domains of QoL in diabetes mellitus patients after fabrication of immediate dentures, most of the patients were pleased with their prosthesis. Three patients had complained of pain on buccal side which was corrected by trimming the overextended flange of their denture. All patients had improvement in phonetics [P value 0.01], better choice of food [P value 0.00], eating ability [P value 0.01], decrease embarrassment [P value 0.08] and self-assurance [P value 0.025]. However, effect of immediate denture on variable like tension was not advantageous having P-value of 0.157
