Prótese sobre implantes tipo protocolo associada à overdenture relato de caso / Implant-supported protocol-type prosthesis associated with overdenture case report
Dentistry has several alternatives to treat edentulism, such as conventional and implantsupported prostheses. The treatment with implant-supported prostheses, by providing greater retention, has been the choice of the majority of professionals and patients. Additionally, these treatments have revolutionized oral rehabilitation since they provide better comfort, aesthetics, masticatory efficiency and public speaking confidence, which results in improved quality of life. Thus, the aim of this study is to report a clinical case of a malepatient initially rehabilitated with overdentures in both arches. Then, due to the evolution of a clinical hyperplasic tissue, the superior prosthesis was replaced by implanted-supported fixed total prosthesis (AU).
