Osseointegrated implants--principles and practice: 2. Prosthetic rehabilitation with osseointegrated implants. 1989

R M Watson, and D M Davis, and T Coward

In this series of three articles the authors describe some of the principles and practice of osseointegrated implants. Part 1 gave a detailed description of the surgical techniques required to establish osseointegrated implant fixtures (with special reference to the Branemark system), and gave guidance on patient selection and treatment planning. Part 2 now considers prosthetic rehabilitation techniques with osseointegrated implants for complete dentures, complete overdentures, partial bridges, and single tooth replacement cases. Part 3 will conclude the series by presenting a number of case studies.
