For many patients, being edentulous would be regarded as a handicap with respect to oral function and psychosocial impact on quality of life. As a result, restoration of oral function through oral surgery and placement of implants is often welcome. Long-term studies have demonstrated that the edentulous jaw can be restored successfully with implant-supported fixed prostheses.Nowadays, the use of implants has a great impact on the prosthodontic treatment of the edentulous patient. A variety of prosthetic designs associated with implant prostheses can be observed, and some new designs have emerged in response to the specific clinical conditions of the edentulous jaw provided with implants. Valid clinical methods and treatment strategies -involving the implant technology - exist to ensure the quality of prosthetic reconstruction.Hence, with regard to some special implant indications, specific prosthodontic principles are needed.
