The impact of healing protocol and attachment type for single-implant retained mandibular complete dentures: protocol for a randomized controlled trial. |
Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Background: It has been shown that for edentulous patients a single mandibular implant is sufficient to retain a complete mandibular denture. Single implants provide a satisfactory survival rate, when they heal submerged. Moreover, this cost-effective treatment option would benefit the patients by saving the pain associated with the second stage surgery by using non-submerged healing. Ball attachments have been commonly used to retain the single-implant retained overdenture. However, they require considerable maintenance and may show loss of retention overtime, requiring substantial maintenance efforts. |
