Global aging population has brought several challenges for their medical systems and total edentulism is one of them. The fabrication of removable acrylic dentures seems to be a simple and cheap treatment solution, but a majority of patients is not satisfied with their functional instability, causing limited diets, mouth soreness, speech and psycho-social problems etc. The results in many studies indicate an impact of oral conditions associated with the full denture wearing on oral-health related quality of life, especially in lower jaw. The reason for improper denture retention could be alveolar ridge bone resorption and numerous studies about this problem are plausible. Bone resorption in lower jaw may turn the alveolar ridge into a flabby soft tissue which is unable to sustain proper denture retention. The implant-retained prosthesis is an alternative treatment option in these situations. Implants will provide retention, stability, function and aesthetics and they are not so expensive solution. The aim of this article is to show solving of retention problems of a lower denture in two different clinical cases using implants and without any special technology.
全球人口老龄化给医疗系统带来了诸多挑战，全口无牙就是其中之一。可摘丙烯酸义齿的制作似乎是一种简单且廉价的治疗方案，但大多数患者对其功能不稳定不满意，这导致饮食受限、口腔疼痛、言语及心理社会问题等。许多研究结果表明，与佩戴全口义齿相关的口腔状况会影响口腔健康相关生活质量，尤其是在下颌。义齿固位不当的原因可能是牙槽嵴骨吸收，关于这个问题的众多研究是有道理的。下颌骨吸收可能会使牙槽嵴变成松弛的软组织，无法维持义齿的正常固位。在这些情况下，种植体固位修复体是一种替代治疗选择。种植体将提供固位、稳定、功能和美观，而且它们并非非常昂贵的解决方案。本文的目的是展示在两个不同临床病例中，如何使用种植体且不借助任何特殊技术来解决下颌义齿的固位问题。
