Abstract:
Due to extreme alveolar resorption many edentulous patients wearing complete dentures suffer from loss of function of the orofacial system. Improvement of oral functions can be obtained by increasing the denture-support, using implants. The construction of a combined implant/mucosal supported lower overdenture will be helpful. A method to construct an overdenture on oral implants is described.
