A novel implant placement technique using a three‐dimensionally printed duplicate denture for implant‐supported overdenture in patients with severe residual ridge resorption: A case report

The treatment method of placing a small number of implants in the mandible as a removable implant-supported overdenture (IOD) enables implant placement and denture stability, even in cases with severe residual ridge resorption. In this case report, a new implant placement technique was performed using a three-dimensionally (3D)-printed duplicate denture fabricated by a 3D printer, resulting in the restoration of masticatory function through IOD.
