Abstract:
For many patients, there is no other option. The CDI is an eposteal implant that becomes firmly attached to underlying bone. More than 25 years of experience with the implant have shown that the implant is capable of supporting both removable and fixed appliances. Once the many constituent factors of this process are understood and taken into account, the CDI becomes a powerful device in the armamentarium of the implant dentist. Furthermore, it often represents the only tool that can be employed to successfully correct cases involving severely atrophic jaws.
