The difficulty of rehabilitating atrophic edentulous posterior areas in the mandible with osseointegrated implants is notable due to the location of vital anatomical structures. This mandibular atrophy is a consequence of the prolonged absence of teeth in this area, which, due to lack of pressure and stimuli exerted by chewing, causes the bone to be reabsorbed by the body. This study aims to report a clinical case of inferior alveolar nerve transposition surgery, performed bilaterally, in the posterior regions of an atretic mandible with simultaneous installation of dental implants and bone graft, in a 69-year-old female patient. The choice of this technique as a treatment allowed for the insertion of proportionally adequate implants, which will increase the biomechanics of the prostheses, enabling better functional rehabilitation. Therefore, it is plausible to conclude that, so far, the results have been achieved, awaiting completion with the installation of implant prostheses.
