Abstract: In this paper we prove that, given an open Riemann surface $M$ and an integer $nge3$, the set of complete conformal minimal immersions $Momathbb{R}^n$ with $overlineX(M)=mathbb{R}^n$ forms a dense subset in the space of all conformal minimal immersions $Momathbb{R}^n$ endowed with the compact-open topology. Moreover, we show that every domain in $mathbb{R}^n$ contains complete minimal surfaces which are dense on it and have arbitrary orientable topology (possibly infinite); we also provide such surfaces whose complex structure is any given bordered Riemann surface. Our method of proof can be adapted to give analogous results for non-orientable minimal surfaces in $mathbb{R}^n$ $(nge3)$, complex curves in $mathbb{C}^n$ $(nge2)$, holomorphic null curves in $mathbb{C}^n$ $(nge3)$, and holomorphic Legendrian curves in $mathbb{C}^{2n+1}$ $(ninmathbbN)$.
