In this work, we present 5 cases of Kennedy Class I patients with atrophic posterior mandible treated with the placement of 01 short WS Neodent® implant and a healing screw to support the removable prosthesis, transforming them into Kennedy Class III patients. To quickly evaluate and verify the benefit of this treatment, masticatory performance was evaluated with maximum bite force and chewing ability. A VAS questionnaire was also applied for a practical preoperative and postoperative evaluation of overall quality of life-changing for the patient after this treatment. This treatment plan was planned in order to reduce drastically the treatment costs and morbidity, and to enhance oral function and the quality of life for these patients. Also, this treatment lead to residual bone preservation, enhanced masticatory function and patient satisfaction. Especially in countries with a large number of patients with missing teeth and socio-economic difficulties to be fully rehabilitated with dental implants and fixed prosthesis treatment options with reduced costs are important to be in our armamentary os possibilities. Key words:Dental implants, masticatory performance, chewing, oral function, mixing ability.
