Dental Implant Retentive Force Analysis

A dental prosthesis, by mimetizing the natural teeth, plays an important role in the maintenance of oral functions (eating, speaking and equilibrium). As the population gets older, the use of implants and implant-supported prosthesis is rising for the replacement of missing teeth. The development of new bio-compatible polymeric materials opens a new window to innovative dental prosthetic for rehabilitation. This project aims to offer patients and healthcare professionals a new product that is significantly faster, cheaper and more beneficial to the success of dental implant treatment. The new solution is based on a universal abutment, compatible with any conventional implant, in a single, simplified retention system, applicable to fixed or removable prostheses, whether total or partial, without the need of screws or cement.
