Brief Summary: Implant retained overdentures provided more satisfaction with regard to conventional denture related problems such as esthetics speech chewing fit and retention function and quality of life Evaluation of patient satisfaction allows direct quantification of patients opinions on different aspects of a given treatment

Studies have indicated that conventional complete denture wearers rehabilitated with mandibular implant supported overdenture experience better retention and stability improved overall function and satisfaction

Patient satisfaction is one factor that influences the success of overdenture treatmentNaert Alsaadi et al 2004 Previous studies have shown a difference between patients satisfaction with their dental prostheses and clinicians assessments of patients oral conditionEmami Heydecke et al 2009This indicates that clinical assessments of dentures are not valid predictors of patient satisfaction

The two primary methods used to fabricate these restorations may be subtractive milling and grinding or additive manufacturing Rapid Prototype RP or 3D printing The 3D printing technology has been incorporated into dentistry but does not include ceramics and is limited to polymers

3D printing by rapid prototyping has many advantages which are the availability of high production rate where the technician can easily produce over 150 units per hour Also the quality control of wax copings which results in high precision fit and constant wall thickness This will result in better stability and retention and consequently patient satisfaction Finally is the reduced finishing work needed on cast copings The irregularities in wax coping thickness can be avoided
Detailed Description: Cast metal coping is the comparator Because of their parallel walled design telescopic crowns provide horizontal stability thus stabilizing the prosthesis against lateral dislodging forces The overdentures self finding mechanism in telescopic constructions facilitates prosthesis insertion considerably

Telescopic constructions seem to be easy to care for as they do not possess areas of difficult access for maintenance This is why this construction also seems to be an effective treatment modality for geriatric patients with serious systemic diseases which affect the degree of dexterity

Despite rapid development in overdenture attachments and implant-supported overdentures with cast metal copings remain a viable and usable modality in dental practice There is limited clinical follow-up data of the complications associated with overdentures and abutment teeth restored with metal copings including post-procedural and prosthetic problems
