ABSTRACT
Restorative services for the elderly have been a growing demand through the ages of dental profession. The patients affected by edentulousness feel handicapped and under confident due to reduced chewing efficiency, difficulty in speech and poor facial esthetics. The main objective of dental implant is to replace the tooth, to restore its function, esthetics, and speech. Implant-supported prosthesis gives a good amount of scope to live a healthy life. Implants are the most preferred option to retain removable and fixed prosthesis. Implants have overcome the challenges of the anatomic, psychological and esthetic consequences of edentulousness.
Full arch implant-supported prosthesis is a good treatment option for edentulous patients. Many studies have shown that this type of rehabilitation can be a long-term option as their success rates are high.
The aim is to present a case report on full mouth rehabilitation with implant-supported cement-retained prosthesis for edentulous maxillary and mandibular arches.
Key words: Dental implants, Cement retained prosthesis, edentulous
