Abstract
ABSTRACT This study is the first study to incorporate a novel approach to single-implant-retained mandibular overdenture with a bar attachment on a single implant in the symphysis region. The use of a single-implant-retained bar overdenture significantly improved patients’ chewing efficiency, indicating enhanced overdenture retention and stability Materials and Methods: Ten maxillary and mandibular completely edentulous patients were enrolled in the study. A complete denture was fabricated for them. On completion, bite force, retention force, and bone change were recorded. Bite force was recorded with the strain gauge, retention force with the force measurement gauge, and bone changes with radiographs Conclusion: Single-implant-supported bar mandibular overdenture (SISBOD) can be a suitable standard economic option for edentulous mandible and can greatly improve the quality of life of patients.
