Abstract:
The functional rehabilitation for severely resorbed mandibles has been a challenge for dentists and oral surgeons. We present a 2-year follow-up case of severely resorbed mandibles successfully treated by soft tissue matrix expansion and cranial bone graft with nonremovable screw-retained acrylic resin prosthesis supported by 4 dental implants.
