Rehabilitation of atrophic maxilla still remains a challenge. Fixed implant-supported restorations have become more predictable in the last years; nevertheless, technical and biological complications still occur. Removable overdenture fully supported by a CAD/CAM titanium bar seems to be a viable treatment option for the rehabilitation of completely edentulous patients with a high degree of bone resorption. In these clinical cases, the soft tissues of the lower third of the face need to be respected, and a fixed-removable solution is the only option to have good hygiene control. Nevertheless, there is no consensus about the optimal number and position of the implants. A total of six adult patients were recruited and treated with an overdenture fully supported by a CAD/CAM titanium bar and low-profile attachment, screwed on four or six implants. A detailed step-by-step description of the procedures was presented. Overall, all the patients were successful treated with no relevant complications. With the limitations of this case series, maxillary implant overdenture fully supported by four or six implants seems to be a safer treatment option for the minimally invasive rehabilitation of atrophic maxillae, regardless of the number of implants.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate and compare retention force of two implants retained mandibular overdenture with zirconia bar using two different clip materials. Methodology: 20 completely edentulous patients (8 women and 12 men) with age ranged between 45 and 65 years were selected for this study. All patients received conventional maxillary and mandibular complete dentures. Two implants were inserted bilaterally in the mandibular canine region. CAD-CAM fabricated zirconia bar attachment was used to retain mandibular overdentures. Patients were randomly divided into two equal groups where poly-oxy-methylene (POM) clip was used for Group I and poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) clip for Group II. Retention force was measured at time of overdenture insertion (T0), six months (T6), and twelve months (T12) later. Results: significant difference was recorded between the two groups in initial retention forces (T0) where PEEK clip group recorded higher retention forces in comparison to POM clip group (P=0.029). However, insignificant difference was observed at (T6) and (T12). Within group comparison of mean retention values at different follow-up periods revealed significant difference for both groups. Conclusion: Within parameters of this study, it could be concluded that both POM and PEEK retentive clips can provide comparable retention forces when used with zirconia bar during 12 months period of overdenture use.   How to cite this article: Emera RMK, Altonbary GY.

This report describes the clinical and technical aspects in the oral rehabilitation of an edentulous patient with knife-edge ridge at the mandibular anterior edentulous region, using implant-retained overdentures. The application of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) in the fabrication of the overdenture framework simplifies the laboratory process of the implant prostheses. The Nobel Procera CAD/CAM System was utilised to produce a lightweight titanium overdenture bar with locator attachments. It is proposed that the digital workflow of CAD/CAM milled implant overdenture bar allows us to avoid numerous technical steps and possibility of casting errors involved in the conventional casting of such bars.
