This preliminary in vitro study evaluated the simulated retention force of O-rings used for
mini-implant overdenture treatment and the effect of mechanical fatigue corresponding to 6 …

Statement of problem The gradual loss of retention and the need for periodic replacement of
attachment-system components are the most frequent complications in implant-supported …

Purpose Patients with atrophic edentulous ridges generally have problems with retention,
therapeutic satisfaction, and comfort with their complete dentures. An alternative treatment to …

Purpose. Evaluate the effect of different mini‐implant numbers on overdenture retention and
evaluate attachment wear following one year of simulated placement/removal. Material and …

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate patient satisfaction and prosthetic aspects during a 5‐
year prospective clinical study of mini dental implants (MDI s) retaining mandibular …

Objective Lateral force to mini‐implants should be avoided because mini‐implants are weak
mechanically because of its small diameter. Overdentures retained by mini‐implants are …

Abstract < bold> Purpose: </bold> This preliminary case series report sought to
evaluate the efficacy of an immediate loading protocol for mandibular overdentures retained …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanical properties of different
attachment systems used for mandibular single-implant overdentures and to compare their …

Materials and Methods The type, sample size, and specifications of the attachment pairs
used in this in vitro study are shown in Table 1. All pairs were tested at IDs of 19, 23, and 29 …

Overdenture as a treatment modality for both partially and fully edentulous patients is
costeffective and less expensive. The purpose of the present study was to examine the …
