ABSTRACT Connecting teeth to osseointegrated implants presents a biomechanical challenge. This is due to the implant being rigidly fixed to the bone and the tooth being attached to the bone with a periodontal ligament. In order to overcome this problem, various connection types such as rigid and nonrigid have been proposed. However, the mechanism of attachment and the perceived problem of the differential support provided by the implant and the tooth have been discussed by many authors and the ideal connection type is still controversial. The aim of this study was to carry out a review of all available literature addressing the toothimplant connection and evidence-based understanding of the management of tooth-implantretained restorations. Keywords: Connecting teeth to osseointegrated nonrigid have been proposed. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
