Lack of retention and stability prosthesis coupled with poor masticatory effectiveness is one the most frequent problem faced by edentulous patients. In Present case,using a "Access post over denture system" preferable than using overdentures that are supported teeth in past. A conservative strategy for root preservation was used fabrication access overdenture, which both well-retentive aesthet...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The location of dental implants and the choice of retentive attachments for implant-retained overdentures are selected based on clinician preference, expert opinion, or empirical information. Limited information is available regarding implant position and the effect on the retention and stability of 2-implant mandibular implant overdentures. PURPOSE The purpose of this in...

Background: Retention and stabilization of implant-supported overdenture is associated with more patient satisfaction, chewing capability, oral health-related quality life. There are a variety implant retention systems which can be utilized to retain an overdenture. Telescopic attachments provide excellent resulting from friction. Objective: This study evaluates the force fatigue resistance rea...

This clinical report describes the prosthetic management of a patient following total glossectomy and total laryngectomy that severely compromised his oral function, caused facial disfigurement, and limited the patient's quality of life. A feeding aid prosthesis was designed to address the patient's chief complaint of difficulty in feeding and mastication. The prosthesis was designed as an impl...

Jefferson Ricardo Pereira Professor at the Specialization course in Dental Prosthesis, Cruzeiro do Sul University. Abstract / Overdenture is deined as a completely or partially removable denture that covers or is supported by one or more remaining natural teeth, roots and / or dental implants. This study aims to examine the masticatory eficiency and patient acceptability of overdentures compare...

This clinical report describes a technique to stabilize a computer-aided dental implant surgical guide to existing implants. A patient requested conversion of her existing mandibular implant-assisted overdenture into a fixed complete denture. The surgical procedure was planned virtually, and the two existing dental implants were integrated into the surgical plan as a means to fixate the surgica...

Retention of a mandibular denture can be achieved by an implant-retained or natural tooth-retained bar and stud attachment in the anterior segment of the mandible. The same design principles holds true for both implant-retained and tooth-retained methods of anchoring the bar and stud attachment. A simple and cost effective treatment for more complex implant overdenture is the concept of convent...

A procedure is described for fabricating an immediate complete overdenture where several teeth retain an interim fixed partial denture (FPD) until the complete denture is finished. Nonessential posterior teeth were first extracted. An interim fixed restoration was fitted to five strategic teeth, and the four maxillary incisors were reduced to the gingival margin. The reduced teeth and the maxil...

AIMS The success of maxillary and mandibular tissue supported implant prostheses varies in the literature, and the ideal protocol may be elusive from given the numerous studies. The oral rehabilitation option is an alternative to conventional dentures and should improve function, satisfaction, and retention. The purpose of this review article is to clarify these questions. METHODS The search ...
