Stud Attachment Retained Mandibular Overdenture - A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Utilizing natural teeth to enhance support for prosthesis is not new in prosthodontics. Few teeth can be conserved in compromised edentulous ridge patients and be used to provide support to the prosthesis. The use of stud attachments allows the ability to the clinician to improve the retention of the prosthesis, thus allowing the patient to experience better comfort.

Use of an Implant O-Ring Attachment for the Tooth Supported Mandibular Overdenture: A Clinical Report
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...
متن کاملPreventive prosthodontics by precision attachment - A case report
Prosthodontic practice should always concentrate on procedures that prevent the excessive loss of jaw bone and those that contribute in maintaining the alveolar ridge height. Overdentures are one such option wherein roots prevent alveolar bone resorption, provide better load transmission, maintain sensory feedback and achieve better stability of denture with emphasis on psychological aspect of ...
متن کاملImplant Retained Overdenture Improves the Retention and Stability by Using a Locator System in a Mandibular Edentulous patient: A Case Report
Abstract Complete maxillary and mandibular dentures have been used as a conventional treatment of edentulous patients for longer than a century. Suitable complete maxillary dentures are usually well tolerated but many patients struggle to chew and swallow with the complete mandibular denture because it is too unstable. Previous studies have shown that a mandibular two-implant retained overdentu...
متن کاملAn in vitro comparative study to evaluate the retention of different attachment systems used in implant-retained overdentures
AIM The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the change in the retentive force and removal torque of three attachment systems during simulation of insertion-removal cycles. METHODOLOGY Edentulous mandibular models were made with heat-cured polymethyl methacrylate resin. Two implant replicas (CMI), of 3.75 mm diameter and 10 mm length, were placed in the intraforaminal region. Acrylic res...
متن کاملStud attachments for the mandibular implant-retained overdentures: Prosthetic complications. A literature review.
A plethora of attachment systems for mandibular two-implant overdentures is currently available often without evidence-based support. Technical aspects are now parameters considered when choosing the appropriate attachment. Despite the increasing use of the Locator attachments, studies regarding their properties remain scarce. Peer reviewed articles published in English up to 2011, were identif...
