Abstract
The use of implants could improve the support, retention, and stability of removable prosthetic restoration for fully edentulous patients with severe alveolar bone resorption. When the prosthesis is manufactured without accurate diagnosis and evaluation, this may lead to unfavorable treatment result. The patient in this case had the treatment of implant overdentures at a private dental clinic, but visited the hospital for retreatment due to soft tissue pain and decreasing retention of existing dentures. The vertical dimension was raised compared to the existing dentures, and overdentures were manufactured using milled bars and additional attachments. The clinical results were satisfactory in the aspect of improved oral hygiene maintenance, function and esthetics.
