This video demonstrates the extraction of teeth in a partially dentate mandible followed by immediate loading of six XIVE® TG implants. Following the Ledermann immediate loading concept, a mesostructure will be used for tension-free primary interlock in this special case. Bridge-like lower full dentures with plastic teeth will then be inserted on this frame and retained with an occlusal screw. Since the dentures can only be removed by the dentist, they are "fixed" as far as the patient is concerned. This simple and quickly produced yet extremely well-fitting restoration, which requires only minimal time and effort for the implant components, is the subject of this contribution.
