Effects of Implant Angulations and Attachment Configurations on the Retentive Forces of Locator Attachment–Retained Overdentures

open access: yesThe International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants, 2014
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different implant angulations and attachment configurations on the retentive forces of locator attachment-retained overdentures over a simulated time period of 6 months.Two acrylic resin models (models 1 and 2) were fabricated to represent an edentulous mandible.

Research progress on the effects of implant-supported overdentures on residual ridge remodelling in edentulous jaws: a narrative review [PDF]

open access: yesActa Odontologica Scandinavica
Residual ridge resorption (RRR) following tooth loss is a continuous and irreversible process that limits the effectiveness of conventional complete dentures and compromises masticatory function and quality of life.
