Cement-retained versus screw-retained implant restorations: achieving optimal occlusion and esthetics in implant dentistry.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Optimal occlusion and esthetics are goals in prosthetic treatment. Implant dentistry is no exception. PURPOSE OF ARTICLE The purpose of this article is to discuss how the choice to use screw-retained or cement-retained implants dramatically influences the occlusion and esthetics.
