Sumario:Difficulty in eating and speaking, ill-fitting denture, and sore mouth syndrome has been life longing among the elderly using dentures. The evolution from conventional denture to implant-supported prosthesis provides these patients normal healthy life with functional and esthetic benefits. An elderly man reported to the Department of Prosthodontics and Oral Implantology of ITS Dental College, Hospital and Research Centre, Greater Noida, with the chief complaint of mobility of upper and lower teeth. After diagnosis and treatment planning, it was decided for immediate implant placement to fabricate a full-mouth implant-supported hybrid prosthesis.
