title: Maxillary implant overdentures: current controversies.
abstract: Mandibular implant overdentures have established and predictable benefits over traditional mucosa-borne mandibular dentures and now form part of mainstream dentistry. Maxillary implant overdentures present a number of different challenges. This selective review highlights the paucity of evidence and inconsistent findings in the maxillary implant overdenture literature.
