Comparison of Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes Between Single Symphyseal and Parasymphyseal Implants Versus Two Implant-Assisted Complete Mandibular Overdentures

Using two implants to retain mandibular overdentures is the first choice due to their higher masticatory efficiency than a single implant. However, a single implant may be a viable treatment alternative, especially in cases where there are any limitations that restrict the use of additional implants.

Abstract

Using two implants to retain mandibular overdentures is the first choice due to their higher masticatory efficiency than a single implant. However, a single implant may be a viable treatment alternative, especially in cases where there are any limitations that restrict the use of additional implants.
