Abstract

Aged, 80 and over Dental Prosthesis, Implant-Supported Dental Restoration Wear Dental Soldering - methods Denture Design Denture Repair - methods Denture, Complete Female Humans Lasers Welding
As dental implants continue to survive longer, managing and maintaining implant prostheses can be complicated by the lack of compatible parts or the discontinuation of implant systems. This report describes a laser welding procedure for the management of clinically short Locator abutments (Zest Anchors Inc) that lacked a commercially available, compatible alternative.
