Abstrakt: Introduction: Nowadays, when planning prosthetic works, implant prosthetics predominates as the possibility of anchoring mobile or fixed prosthetic works. Such planning does not exclude all other pre-prosthetic works such as frenulectomy, sulcoplasty, modeling of the alveolar ridge, excision of hyperplastic or hypertrophic mucosa, tuberoplasty, expansion of the attachment mucosa belt and others. On the contrary, failure to recognize the pre-prosthetic problem and its inadequate treatment greatly compromises the success and longevity of implant-prosthetic works and is one of the leading problems of complications and failures in this type of prosthetic planning. On the other hand, there are still patients who, due to general or local factors, cannot be treated with implant prosthetics, so surgical pre-prosthetic preparation is an indispensable part. Case report: This summary presents a case of preprosthetic planning in a patient with an edentulous lateral part of the maxilla where exostoses predominate, along with soft tissue hypertrophy and a lowered sulcus and grips of the mobile mucosa and a periodontologically compromised front. In the prosthetic planning, it was concluded that the remaining teeth cannot be quality supports for either mobile or fixed prosthetic work. The condition found in the patient's mouth seriously affects the quality of life, and the primary motive and goal of her visit is to make a functionally acceptable tooth replacement. Although this is a middle-aged patient with a healthy, orderly medical history, the patient decides to make a total prosthesis. After that, the patient underwent bilateral maxillary tuberoplasty with PRF preservation, which is used as a biomaterial due to better quality and quantity of soft tissue healing. After adequate bone and soft tissue healing, optimal relationships are obtained for the creation of a functionally adequate mobile prosthesis, which implies a sufficiently wide and high alveolar ridge with a mucosa of normal resilience in order to create a satisfied patient's smile.
