Yüzbaşıoğlu, E. (2014). A modified technique for extraoral cementation of implant retained restorations for preventing excess cement around the margins. The Journal of Advanced Prosthodontics, 6(2), 146-149. https://dx.doi.org/10.4047/jap.2014.6.2.146Abstract
The major drawback of cement-retained restorations is the extrusion of the excess cement into the peri-implant sulcus, with subsequent complications. Insufficient removal of the excess cement may initiate a local inflammatory process, which may lead to implant failure. This article presents a method of controlling cement flow on implant abutments, minimizing the excess cement around implant-retained restorations.
