Clinical Evaluation of Dental Implants with Rigid－Removable Superstructure over a 3 Year Period

The application of Precision Attachments and Telescope Systems

Abstract

When superstructures of dental implants are made,careful consideration is necessary when deciding how to connect them with the abutments of natural teeth.
Many researchers recommend the rigid-removable(the operator removable)superstructure for dental implants^1,2). These systems were utilized on 28 patients in the past 4 years with no complications.It is possible to do repairs, reduce occlusal stress,replace superstructures, and independently palpate implants with these superstructures. These systems can function as partial dentures with rigid-support after removal of implants.
