Abstract

This report presents a full-mouth rehabilitation case. A patient came with a failing dentition in maxilla, and after the treatment, the patient had a shortened full-arch, implant-supported, screw-retained hybrid acrylic complete denture in the maxilla and full-arch metal ceramic restorations in the mandible. The report describes the steps involved in the prosthodontic rehabilitation; a cost-effective treatment plan, the restoration of vertical dimension, an immediate denture, an implant-level impression, a verified-master cast, the fabrication of definitive prosthesis, the occlusal scheme and multiple follow-ups in 6 months. We discussed the merits/demerits of screw-retained prosthesis, impression techniques and various types of fixed complete dentures. We learnt the difficulty in hygiene measures and dissatisfaction of the patient with the hygienic gaps under the acrylic fixed dentures.
