title: [Removable dentures with implants for edentulous lower jaw].
abstract: Fabrication of a complete mandibular denture that offers patient comfort, function, and aesthetics along with stability and acceptable retention remains one of the most challenging procedures in dental practice. Based on a thorough treatment planning and a successful surgical procedure implants have been shown to be reliable abutment for both retention and support of overdentures. During planning important relevant factors must be considered such as old age, systemic diseases, increased financial capability, etc. Implants retained overdentures can be divided into three groups according to the type of support: mucosal, muco-implantal and implantal. Key factors concerning the planning of prosthetic rehabilitation are the number and length of the implants, together with the quality and quantity of the anchoring bone tissue.
