Being edentulous negatively impacts oral health related quality of life. There are several prosthetic options to rehabilitate such cases such as conventional complete dentures, implant supported removable and implant supported fixed prosthesis.

The patient can also be benefited with the immediate rehabilitation of edentulous arches which helps maintaining selfconfidence and quality of life.
