Abstract

Patient: The patient was a 62-year-old female complained of masticatory disturbance caused by maxillary and mandibular distal extension missing. The patient complained of discomfort of mandibular removable denture. To achieve the posterior occlusal support, the implant-supported fixed partial denture was selected for lower distal missing.
Discussion: The posterior occlusion was reconstructed with the combination of fixed and removable prosthesis. Implant-supported fixed partial denture was useful for a patient claimed to discomfort of removable denture. No significant problem has occurred for three years after treatment.
Conclusion: The patient was satisfied with the combination of maxillary removable partial denture and mandibular implant-supported fixed partial denture, and good functional results were obtained.
