Use of Endodontic Cores for Rigid Screw Retention of the Natural Dentition to Dental Implants by Means of Fixed Partial Prostheses for the Atrophic Mandible: Long-Term Clinical Results OJDOH - Iris Publishers

Implant-supported  prostheses  have  been  first  choice  for treating lost teeth. However, there are challenging cases that only reach resolution by exploring unconventional options. In order to  overcome  specific  shortcomings,  tooth-implant  supported prostheses  have  shown  to  be  a  predictable  treatment  option. The  most  significant  difference  between  an  implant-supported prosthesis, when compared to a tooth-supported, is the absence of a periodontal ligament (PDL). This anatomic structure is responsible for tooth movement, shock absorption, and proprioception [1-3].
