Prosthodontic procedures for implant reconstruction. 2. Post-surgical procedures.
There is essentially no flexibility in an osseo-integrated implant system, so that the final fit of the prosthesis must be absolutely precise. A simple approach to this problem is presented with details as to impression taking, confirmation of accuracy of the master cast, fitting of the cast metal framework and construction of the superstructure. The information presented describes a full arch fixed restoration attached to mandibular implants, but may easily be followed for the maxilla or modified for quadrant restorations.
