Abstract | PATIENT: DISCUSSION: Sufficient lip support and proper phonetic function were recovered by implant-supported fixed partial denture with removable gingival veneer. The long-term stability of implants may be due to easiness of toothbrushing and connection of implants rendered by the fixed prosthesis. CONCLUSION: This case suggests that implant-supported fixed partial denture with removable gingival veneer could be useful for severe ridge resorption.
