title: Generational differences in implant prosthodontics: a biomechanical solution.
abstract: Correct placement of implants is facilitated by the parameters that are already established, dictated by the struts and borders of the existing implant frame. The root-form implants should be: Contained in the anterior symphysis of the mandible. Completely encompassed in bone, without any contact with the Vitallium frame. As long as possible, to enhance biomechanical support of the superimposed bar and prosthesis. Evenly dispersed, in order to support a Hader bar. Independent of the previous implant system. Placed to fill the anteroposterior spread as completely as possible. The rationale and approach should comprise these requirements in order to achieve a predictable solution to mechanical failure of a subperiosteal implant, in an efficient manner, with the least possible trauma to the patient.
