“…Roots maintained under the denture base preserves the alveolar ridge, provide sensory feedback and improve the stability of the dentures 8 . In this case, mandibular canines are retained in tooth-supported overdenture because the mandibular canines are usually amenable to endodontic treatment, have strong roots, main concern for alveolar bone preservation particularly in mandibular anterior segment and are strategically located at the corner of the arch as discussed by Renner and Langer et al 10,11 .…”

Overdenture helps in preservation of the sensation of proprioception, maintains the border seal and provides the patient with good phonetics and chewing efficiency. The retention and stability of such prosthesis is enhanced greatly in bar-supported overdentures. This case report presents the step by step procedure for the fabrication of a canine supported hader bar mandibular overdenture that opposes a conventional complete maxillary denture. The bar was fabricated from pre-formed plastic bar, casted and female clips were attached in the mandibular denture. The mode of retention was primarily through frictional resistance.
