Clinical evaluation of ramus frame and staple bone implants.

Atwood pointed out that "variability of human response (resistance to infection, susceptibility to bone resorption, and psychologic capacity) demands more basic research and clinical trials to improve success." This study can serve as a baseline for further longitudinal studies and controlled clinical research. Barring tissue or systemic complications, the prosthodontist must take the responsibility through sound treatment principles and awareness to ensure continued satisfaction and success of these implant systems.
