Meeting the demands imposed by many patients, the implant overdenture has become the standard of care for the edentulous mandible. Reinforcing the concepts taught in the morning lectures, this workshop is ideal for those who wish to gain the skills to successfully incorporate the restoration of the implant overdenture in their practice. Participants will have a hands-on opportunity to work with a variety of attachment systems, place overdenture abutments, retrofit a denture and select and activate retention. Participants will be able to keep the specially designed kit, model and denture as a visual aid for their patients.
Learning Objectives:
Perform a space analysis and measure trans-gingival width.
Select, place and torque implant overdenture abutments.
Retro fit, activate and replace retention in a processed denture.
