Abstract:
This article proposes a 2-visit clinical protocol to manage prosthodontic complications resulting from limited prosthetic space, using a monolithic, multichromatic computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) acrylic resin implant overdenture. The advantages and limitations of using this approach are outlined and discussed.
