Photoelastic stress patterns produced by implant-retained overdentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1998When 2 implants are used to support a removable overdenture, optimal stress distribution to minimize forces to the implants is desired.This study used photoelastic analysis to compare the stress patterns generated around implants with 2 retention mechanisms.Two root form implants were anchored in a photoelastic mandible and a removable overdenture was ...

Implant-retained overdentures.
Compendium (Newtown, Pa.), 1994While fixed implant-supported restorations were the most popular method of restoring edentulous mandibles during the development of osseointegrated implants, it soon became evident that removable overlay prostheses also were an excellent treatment choice.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Implant-retained Mandibular Overdentures
Journal of Dental Research, 2006Evidence from randomized clinical trials of implant-retained overdentures is very limited at the present time. The aim of this study was to compare implant-retained mandibular overdentures and conventional complete dentures in a randomized controlled trial (RCT).

O-ring attachments for transitional implant-retained overdentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2004The lack of proper stability and retention is frequently found in mandibular complete dentures. The stability and retention of existing complete dentures may be improved by using transitional implants (TIs) incorporating the O-ring retention system. This article describes the procedures used to convert an existing conventional complete denture to a TI ...

The influence of mandibular implant‐retained overdentures in masticatory efficiency
Gerodontology, 2011doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2011.00539.xThe influence of mandibular implant‐retained overdentures in masticatory efficiencyObjective: To evaluate the masticatory efficiency of patients rehabilitated with conventional dentures (CDs) or implant‐retained mandibular overdentures.Background: Despite the evident benefits of implants on mastication as assessed

Correction of nonparallel implants for an implant-retained overdenture.
General dentistry, 2010An implant-retained overdenture is less expensive than a fixed implant-retained prosthesis; however, using ball attachments on abutments that are nonparallel and/or outside the path of insertion may result in loss of retention. As described in this case report, alignment devices can be used as a mandibular overdenture retainer to diminish the lack of ...

A Partial Palatal Coverage Overdenture Retained by Zygomatic Implants
Journal of Prosthodontics, 2015AbstractProsthodontic rehabilitation of an atrophic edentulous maxilla can be challenging and is further complicated when multiple risk factors are present. Fixed prostheses require multiple implants for support/retention organized in biomechanically favorable positions in order to afford a good prognosis.

Implant-retained overdenture design for the malpositioned mandibular implants.
Compendium of continuing education in dentistry (Jamesburg, N.J. : 1995), 2006In the rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible, implant-retained overdenture represents a viable and cost-effective treatment. Successful prosthetic integration of this treatment relies on the accurate 3-dimensional position and angulation of the implant fixtures.
