Abstract:
Lack of stability and support from conventional complete denture is the persistent enigma of all times. Rehabilitation of such cases fail to please patients as well as it is distressing for dentist. Over denture on other hand has upper hand over conventional denture with respect to not only just stability and support but it also enhances the proprioception and lowers the rate of residual ridge resorption. Overdenture with a bar attachment splints the tooth together which causes even distribution of stresses. This case report dictates successful rehabilitation of a patient with the same concept applied clinically.
