Magnet-Retained Two-Mini-Implant Overdenture: Clinical and Mechanical Consideration
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two-implant overdentures have become the accepted treatment for restoring mandibular edentulism. The dimensions of regular implants sometimes limit their use, such as in the case of narrow ridges. Mini-implants with reduced diameters (less than 3.0 mm) enable insertion into narrow ridges. A magnet-retained two-mini-implant overdenture system was developed and is described in this paper. Additionally, we describe a clinical mandibular procedure using the system and evaluate its biomechanical performance.

Two Years Retrospective Evaluation of Overdenture Retained by Symphyseal Single Implant Using Two Types of Attachments
BACKGROUND This study was aimed to evaluate complete mandibular overdentures retained by a symphyseal single implant using ball and magnet attachments in both clinical and radiographic evaluation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten dental press fit titanium implants were installed in the lower jaws of completely edentulous patients according to two-stage surgical protocol. For each patient, one implan...
متن کاملPreliminary In Vitro Study on O-Ring Wear in Mini-Implant-Retained Overdentures.
This preliminary in vitro study evaluated the simulated retention force of O-rings used for mini-implant overdenture treatment and the effect of mechanical fatigue corresponding to 6 months of wear. A mandibular overdenture analog device was attached to two mini-implants and underwent a tensile strength test before and after the application of insertion-removal and simulated masticatory cycles....
متن کاملSingle Versus Two Dental Implant Retained Mandibular Overdenture: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: The consensus is that the standard treatment of choice for the edentulous mandible should be a two implant retained mandibular overdenture. Some clinicians have tried single median implant to retain the mandibular overdenture, however, there is lack of scientific information with single implant retained mandibular overdenture. Therefore the purpose of the current randomized clinical...
متن کاملSurgical and prosthetic planning for a two-implant-retained mandibular overdenture: a clinical report.
A 2-implant-retained mandibular overdenture is considered by some to be the standard of care for mandibular edentulism. Compared to a conventional complete denture, an implant-retained overdenture requires more thorough planning. Careful consideration is necessary regarding the 3-dimensional orientation of the implants to ensure adequate horizontal and vertical space for prosthetic components. ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of magnet retained overdenture treatment over tooth supported overdenture and degree to which subjective treatment outcome could be predicted by VAS (Visual Analogue Scale). 10 patients were identified and conventional over denture was delivered, they form group A1. In the same patients magnets were attached to the abutments and the same ove...
