The immediate overdenture. A case history.
A case is described of application of the immediate overdenture technique to restore function, speech and aesthetics in a patient with extreme resorption of the maxillary anterior residual ridge. In the opinion of the authors, retention of the roots of the remaining teeth most definitely contributed to the retention, stability and overall success of the denture (Figs. 9, 10).
