Unfavorable angulation of dental implants is a common complication that may make the design of the prosthetic device difficult and may compromise its function, access for oral hygiene procedures, and esthetic appearance. When the use of angulated abutments makes the prosthetic design unaceptable, the use of a double cast fixed detachable prosthodontic procedure may be required, which includes a cast substructure retained with conventional set screws to support a cast metal ceramic superstructure retained by semiprecision attachments and friction. This procedure improves access for oral hygienic procedures and offers better control over the esthetics and the function of the restoration.

Accurately recording implant positions and the edentulous areas during the fabrication of implant-retained overdentures can be a difficult task. A modification of the dual or split-tray technique is suggested for implant-retained overdentures. This procedure permits the construction of the prosthesis on one master cast and the use of two impression materials with different properties incorporated into a single impression to correspond with the needs of specific anatomic areas of the mouth.
