Abstract
Neutral zone mandibular dentures are considered tobe superior to conventional complete dentures.Conventional complete dentures (CD) have been the most common
and only treatment modality for rehabilitation of edentulousness
until the introduction of dental implants. Implant-retained or
implant-supported prostheses have been proven to be superior
to conventional CDs in terms of patient-based outcomes (PBOs).'
However, implant therapy may be out of reach of patients due to
a variety of reasons.
