Are there different codes for immediate dentures for partial dentures versus complete dentures? Is it acceptable to use D5130 and D5140 for both immediate partial and immediate complete dentures?

No it would not be appropriate to use D5130 and D5140 for both partial and complete dentures. These codes are for Complete immediate dentures only.
