This clinical report documents the treatment of a 63‐year‐old Caucasian female Prosthodontic Diagnostic Index Class III patient using dental implants and a fixed prosthetic reconstruction. The treatment involved the fabrication of single crowns and fixed partial dentures retained by natural teeth in the maxillary arch. The posterior segments of the mandibular arch were rehabilitated with fixed partial dentures retained by endosseous implants.
