Overdenture using dental implants could help the improvement of denture function. In this case, a fully edentulous patient was treated with a conventional complete denture on the maxilla and implant retained overdenture retained by 2 freestanding implants placed in the anterior region of the mandible, following recommendations from the 2002 McGill. Locator attachments were used for retention of the mandibular overdenture.
