Single-implant mandibular overdenture retained by a short implant showed favorable outcomes after 1 year. Further studies with larger samples and longer follow-up periods are needed to confirm the findings of this single-group prospective study. The present study was registered at the Brazilian Clinical Trials Registry (REBEC), identifier RBR-7p2xmg. The trial registry occurred during the study execution, and its final approval was delayed because of several formatting adequacies required by the platform REBEC.
