    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Prosthodontics
    • Oral Rehabilitation

    Background:

    • Fully edentulous patients present unique challenges in oral appliance fabrication.
    • The need for protective oral devices in edentulous patients is often overlooked.

    Observation:

    • This study addresses the construction of specialized mouthguards for completely edentulous individuals.
    • The described prosthesis integrates features of both a denture and a mouthguard.

    Findings:

    • Detailed construction methods for a full upper and a lower denture-mouthguard are presented.
    • A clinical case report illustrates the successful application of this combined prosthesis.

    Implications:

    • This work offers a novel solution for edentulous patients requiring oral protection.
  • The denture-mouthguard prosthesis may improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
