title: Repair of a milled cantilevered implant overdenture bar: a clinical report.
abstract: This clinical report of a fractured cantilevered substructure bar describes an alternative treatment to the proposed refabrication of the substructure bar and overdenture prosthesis. This report outlines the clinical and laboratory procedures to repair the fractured bar, eliminating the time and expense of fabricating a new bar and prosthesis.
