Abstract
Treatment of the edentulous patient with fixed reconstructions using multiple implants in both dental arches has many benefits compared to a conventional removable denture, including increased patient satisfaction, improved speech, aesthetics, function and self esteem. With a continuing increase in the use of implants, a significant percentage of edentulous population is benefitting from the advantages of fixed implant restorations. The choice of a suitable prosthesis for a specific case is determined to a great extent by the underlying residual bone volume as well as the teeth being replaced. The aim of the present case report is to describe the oral rehabilitation of a patient with a fixed implantsupported prosthesis.
