title: Use of two implant systems within the same restorative segment: a clinical report.
abstract: The incorporation of more than one dental implant system within the same restorative segment may be a reliable approach to treatment. This article describes a clinical situation that was resolved, after the failure of a pre-existing subperiosteal implant, by the use of both subperiosteal and osseointegrated fixtures concurrently. The result was an increase in stability, and it is hoped that restoration settling will be minimized.
