Abstract
When restoring edentulous patients with lower complete denture, the smaller supportive and retentive area of mandible can lead to poor support and stability, denture dislodgement and pain resulting discomfort. In this situation, implant prosthesis can improve esthetics, stability and occlusal force. Whereas, patients with a upper complete denture can adjust more easier because of palate. Therefore, it is suggested to rehabilitate fully edentulous patients with lower implant-supported, upper complete denture as one of the treatment options. So, we are going to report the case and literature review about how the lower implant prosthesis opposing to upper complete denture affects the bone resorption of maxillary residual ridge.
