Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate Peri-implant strain with locator and bar attachment during dislodging of maxillary implant overdenture Materials methods: Four implants were inserted in completely edentulous acrylic model canine premolar areas. Experimental overdentures 4 metal hooks constructed connected the attachments (group I) or 2). Two gauges bonded at buccal palatal surface each imp...

T reatment of patients with severe periodontal disease often involves complicated decisions concerning disease activity and prognosis of teeth with extensive attachment loss. Many factors, in addition to the periodontal status, contribute to the definitive treatment plan. The decision to extract or retain severely periodontally involved teeth is based on a combination of evaluating the disease ...

Studies are needed to determine the prognosis of different forms of dental prosthetic rehabilitation and the main complications involved. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate technical complications involving implant-supported prostheses. A retrospective one time snap-shot study was carried out with a total of 509 implants in 153 patients. Prosthetic conditions were determined by cl...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical function and long-term prognosis of overdentures retained by a small number of implants in the maxilla and mandible using one of two different attachment systems. Included in the study were all patients referred to specialty clinics in Jönköping and Linköping, Sweden, during the treatment period who needed an overdenture and could be provided w...

The retention of a complete denture and the patient’s adaptation varies considerably among different individuals. Resorption of the edentulous alveolar ridge differs greatly and some patients need implant-retained overdentures to enable adequate retention of their prostheses. In some extreme cases it is necessary to increase the volume of the alveolar ridge with bone grafts. The aim of this stu...

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a group of inherited disorders characterized by abnormal enamel formation. This article outlines the treatment aspect for rehabilitation of occlusion using telescopic overdenture for a patient having amelogensis imperfecta.

Construction of an obturator is necessary to restore normal function and aesthetics in patients who had a resection of a tumor in the soft and hard palates. The design of the prosthesis is affected by the remaining supporting structures of the oral cavity, presence and extent of reconstructed tissue and the severity and location of the lesion. Many adverse forces act on an obturator and these c...

The multitude of benefits patients derive from implant-based therapy has been well documented for more than 20 years. Implant-based modalities have expanded the options for replacing teeth and returning function in both partial and fully edentulous situations. This article is not intended to review the predictability of fixed implant-supported restorations or the overwhelming health, psychologi...

Edentulism is a debilitating and irreversible condition described as final marker of disease burden for oral health. Rehabilitating edentulous patients with residual ridge resorption has improved tremendously because Implant dentistry . Aims Objectives: To evaluate the crestal bone loss in mandibular implant over denture via locator ballsocket attachments: An In - Vivo study. Material method: T...
