The use of residual teeth to support an attachment-retained overdenture is an alternative therapy to extractions and complete removable denture, particularly for the mandibular arch. Overdenture offers several advantages, including maintenance of the alveolar ridge and proprioception. Retention and stability are also enhanced by means of attachment systems, which improves schwing efficiency and better psychological integration of the prosthesis. This article describes, through a clinical case, the fabrication and interest of a tooth-supported overdenture using two axial attachments.
