Abstract 

This clinical report describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of an edentulous patient with compromised maxillary and mandibular anatomy, caused by the resection of several odontogenic keratocysts associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome. Preprosthetic surgical preparation included iliac crest bone grafting to both arches and placement of implants. Prosthodontic treatment included the fabrication of maxillary and mandibular dental implant-supported connecting bars and construction of attachment-retained overdentures.
