Abstract
In edentulous mandible, implant supported overdenture was considered as a first treatment option. In case of a implant supported telescopic overdenture, sufficient inter-arch space needs for arrangement of artificial teeth and attachment. Passive fit of the implant prosthesis is important factor for preventing mechanical failure. Gold Electroforming System is particularly useful to achieve a passive fit of telescopic attachment and results in precision marginal fit and the small thickness of the coping provides optimal space for narrow inter-arch space. This article presents that application of Gold Electroforming System can provide excellent esthetics and function on four-implant supported telescopic overdenture.
