PMID: 1398825
Fixed-removable implant prostheses provide solutions for some of the problems associated with implant dentistry, especially in the maxilla. The technique for using electrical discharge machining to create a precise passive fit between the substructure bar and the removable suprastructure is presented. The advantages, disadvantages, and complications associated with this type of prosthesis are discussed. (INT J ORAL MAXILLOFAC IMPLANTS 1992;7:56-61.)
Key words: electrical discharge machining (spark erosion), fixed-removable bar-overdenture prosthesis
