Is the wax fitting always part of the immediate denture process.. or is that up to the dentist?

Wax fitting part?  As in, when they have a wax block and they tell you to bite down?  That is generally done to record the relationship of your upper and lower jaw so they can properly place the teeth when they remove your existing ones.
