The aim of this study is to present three cases aged over 75 years that were treated with implant supported prostheses. These three patients were followed for more than 3 years, and good outcomes were achieved. Case 1 was a 76 year-old man. His edentulous mandible was treated with an implant-supported overdenture and his edentulous maxilla was restored with a conventional full denture. Case 2 was an 80 year-old man. Nine teeth remained in the mandible, and the mandibular edentulous areas were restored by three bridges. Five anterior teeth remained in the maxilla, but all premolars and molars were missing. Implant-supported fixed dentures were delivered in the bi-lateral posterior maxilla. Case 3 was an 81-year-old-man with a totally edentulous maxilla and partially edentulous mandible. The edentulous maxilla was restored by conventional full denture, and implant-supported fixed dentures were placed in the bilateral posterior edentulous areas in the mandible. Dental implant treatments restored good masticatory function and improved the quality of life of these elderly patients with partially and/or totally edentulous jaws.
