Abstract
Since long time overdenture has been the choice of treatment in patients with partially edentulous arches, particularly in the mandibular jaw for the advantages associated with it in the form of decreased ridge resorption, improved proprioception, better retention and support [1]. Significant advances in the treatment modality have popularized the use of attachment in the abutment teeth as compared to conventional overdenture fabricated on teeth. This case report describes a technique for the fabrication of overdenture on mandibular and maxillary canines and 2nd premolar, by the incorporation of custom attachment.
