Simplifying the treatment of edentulism: a new type of implant



DA Deporter, PA Watson, and D Booker
Department of Periodontology, University of Toronto, Faculty of Dentistry, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

In this article, the authors describe the application of a new and unique root-form dental implant in a simplified approach to treating the completely edentulous mandible using an overdenture. The technique is supported by the results of a prospective clinical trial involving 52 patients that showed a three- to four-year success rate of 95 percent.
