Abstract:
Reconstructive surgery does not always provide for sufficient functional, cosmetic und esthetic results of bone defects, loss of soft tissues and sense organs. 57 patients were treated by the "Bochum study group for oro-facial rehabilitation" from 1990 to 1992 using implant-retained prostheses. The advantages of the "Snap-Button-System" used for retention are presented.
