Two implants in the mandible for denture stabilization
In this severely resorbed mandible, 2 implants were placed to stabilize a lower denture. This is a simple and relatively inexpensive way to greatly improve this patient`s quality of life. The use of guided surgery enables the longest and widest implants to be placed safely, at the optimum angle for location of the attachment.
