Abstract

<p>Patient: The patient was a 70-year-old man with the chief complaint of unacceptable movement of a mandibular complete denture during function. Since it was considered difficult to further improve the retentive force with a conventional complete denture, an implant overdenture (IOD) was selected to meet the needs of the patient.</p><p>Discussion: The patient was unable to obtain satisfactory functional stability with a conventional mandibular complete denture, and so an IOD was applied to improve the retentive force to resolve the patient’s chief complaint. Through this case, we reaffirmed the importance of prosthetic intervention considering the patient’s life stage as well as the choice of treatment method. In the future, careful follow-up will be necessary to monitor the patient’s progress over time, such as resorption of the alveolar ridge.</p><p>Conclusion: An IOD was applied to a patient who had difficulty accepting a conventional mandibular complete denture, and good results were obtained.</p>
