[Observations on before and after employ of screw of implant denture with SEM]

The loss of screw is one of the clinic complication in MDIC implant denture cases. The purpose of this study is to find the cause of loss of screw. The authors has studied MDIC implant denture with SEM before and after employ of the screw and found that the causes of screw loss were crevice corrosion and friction pressure. Crevice corrosion may promote the loss of screw. Base the above condition, it is necessary to select Ti-alloy screw and associat with anticorrosive measure in MDIC implant denture construction.
