Abstract

<p>Patient: A 63-year-old female patient desired improvement of masticatory disturbance due to incompatibility of the maxillary complete denture and mandibular partial denture for missing 7+7 and 765|567 teeth, respectively; and improvement of taste disturbance due to palatal coverage of the denture. Functional restoration was achieved with a maxillary bone-anchored complete denture (immediate loading) for the 7+7 missing teeth (immediate restoration) and crown-type implant dentures for the 765|567 missing teeth.</p><p>Discussion: After functional restoration, the taste and masticatory disturbances did not reappear and there were no prosthetic complications such as detachment or breaking, with a good overall follow-up.</p><p>Conclusion: The maxillary immediate restorative implant-supported prosthetic treatment is considered to be one of the most effective treatment options for patients with the C2 defect pattern of Eichner’s classification having masticatory and taste disorders as their main complaints.</p>
