V029 AD Implants have largely replaced complete dentures. However older patients with dentures are not al- ways helped by extensive implant therapy. Problems with oral hygiene, particularly in the elderly, is a limit- ing factor. A removable prosthesis, adequate cleaning of a small number of implants in the anterior region and simple mouthwash is often easier to get to than with interdental brushes, floss and more extensive brushing. AwellprovenalternativeistheAt- las system. The technique is based on implants,whichsupportandholdthe prosthesis in place. The placement of the minimally invasive implants usu- ally do not need any major surgery as they require a minimum of space in the bone. A soft liner of resilient sili- cone is used in the existing denture. It serves both as retention of the den- ture around the round implant head and as a shock-absorbing cushion against the gums. Furthermore, no o- rings or rigid strongholds in the pros- thesis are needed. Thetreatmentisusuallydonedur- ing the same visit. Normally, the pa- tientleavestheclinicwithafirmlyfit- ting denture within an hour. During the next two days, the denture has to stay in place all around the clock. Pa- tient should only drink liquid or very soft food. After these two days, the denture can be taken out for normal cleaning, however, it should be put backimmediatelyinordernottojeop- ardize the healing of the fixed im- plants. After a few weeks, the healing is wellunderwayandthedenturecanbe taken out during the night. The soft silicone material sits with undercuts in the denture, and can easily be re- moved and replaced by the dentist when needed. Normally the soft re- linesiliconeholdsfor12to18months. Cleaning the denture does not dif- fer much from ordinary dentures. A soft denture brush and a suitable toothpaste is all that is needed. Obvi- ously, the implants also need to be kept clean. A soft toothbrush and floss will take care of that. The system has been studied at Sahlgrenska Institute in Gothen- burg1 , where the study shows an al- most 100 % acceptance with im- proved speech, comfort and chewing characteristics with the patients in- cluded in the study. Improved self- confidence and self-esteem were other positive effects. Similar results were found in an US study from New York, USA.2 Atlas has been on the market since 2004. 1 Patient satisfaction with mini-implant stabilizedfulldentures.A1-yearprospec- tive study (C.
