Replacement of missing lower teeth with a fixed implant bridge and of upper teeth with a removable denture

A 66 year-old patient had a history of neglected oral hygiene and loss of many teeth.  He could not tolerate any lower removable denture. Function and aesthetics were finally restored with a fixed bridge on 4 dental implants in the lower jaw and a removable denture on the upper jaw.

Images below show (in descending order): patient before treatment; dental implants ready to receive the bridge; implants bridge screw-retained on the implant; final result.
