Forty toothless patients were examined over a period of 3 years for the purpose of improving the face profile after integration of implant-supported, removable full dentures. The data before the treatment were related to the corresponding normal values. The same parameters were measured 3 months after the prosthetic treatment was finished and were compared to the preoperative data. In all parameters we saw an significant increase in the normal value rate.
