Study Overview
Brief Summary
Completely edentulous patients frequently suffer from an inadequate retention and stability of their mandibular dentures. Thus, rehabilitation with conventional prostheses in case of edentulous lower jaws may create functional (Chewing efficiency ) and psychological problems for the patients. However, atrophy of edentulous jaws and anatomic restrictions may limit the conventional implant placement or require additional surgical interventions.With MINI DENTAL IMPLANT taking the main stage as retentive aid for an over denture and having favorable prosthetic outcome, augment their use in definitive prosthodontics.
