Fabrication of a fixed retrievable implant-supported prosthesis based on electroforming: a technical report.
This article describes a method of fabricating a fixed retrievable implant-retained prosthesis based on electroforming. This method combines the advantages of both the cement- and screw-retained prostheses, including passive fit, ease of fabrication, and retrievability. The absence of visible occlusal screw-canals adds to its increased esthetic appeal.
