The loss of teeth can be caused by various complex and multifactorial conditions, and if untreated, it can lead to total edentulism. Being without natural teeth is a condition known as edentulism, a terminal process. Edentulous patients, with more or less severe mandibular alveolar bone resorption, often relate functional and psychosocial problems with using a conventional denture associated with a lack of stability and denture retention. The high predictability and survival of dental implants solve these problems, meaning the treatment of a fully edentulous mandible using an implant-retained overdenture has become a routine therapy. Thus, an overdenture retained by 2 or more implants is a highly predictable treatment with implant success and survival rates above 95.5%. This method also provides high satisfaction, comfort, and quality of life for patients compared with a complete conventional denture. Nowadays, implant-supported mandibular overdentures are commonly utilized as the standard treatment for edentulous individuals since they are an effective treatment modality for the replacement of missing teeth.
