Abstract
An implant-supported fixed dental prosthesis is one of the treatment options for an individual with a completely edentulous maxilla. However, a screw-retained or cemented prosthesis can make oral hygiene difficult, especially for patients with a history of periodontal disease or disabilities. Compared with maxillary fixed dental prostheses, implant-supported overdentures offer similar retention and function and facilitate esthetics, phonetics, and hygiene. This report describes the prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with an edentulous maxilla and a severe maxillomandibular discrepancy that involved the use of a novel prefabricated telescopic system to retain an implant-supported removable dental prosthesis.
