Abstract

Osseointegrated implant support of dental restorations continues to be a popular option for the contemporary patient with missing natural dentition. This article focuses on the two most frequently used methods for attaching final prostheses to endosseous implants. The authors offer practical solutions for minimizing implant screw loosening and describe the factors involved in maintaining stable screw joint assembly.
