Abstract
Over denture treatment uses a removable complete denture that overlies retained teeth, tooth roots, or dental implants. This treatment is not a new concept and practitioners have successfully employed existing tooth structures or retained roots to assist with complete denture treatment for more than a century.1,2 The presence of a healthy periodontal ligament maintains alveolar ridge morphology, whereas a diseased periodontal ligament, or its absence, is associated with variable but inevitable time-dependent reduction in residual ridge dimensions.
