It consists of a customized casting, made of a surgical\u2010grade metal or alloy. Permucosal abutments, posts and intraoral bars are designed for prosthetic retention. Three types may be distinguished. (A) Complete subperiosteal implant, used in a completely edentulous arch. (B) Unilateral subperiosteal implant, located on one side of the posterior mandible or maxilla. (C) Circumferential subperiosteal implant, that bypasses remaining teeth or implants.A prosthesis for use in edentulous patients who cannot wear dentures (e.g., because of mandibular atrophy). The implant consists of a metal framework that rests on the residual ridge beneath the periosteum but does not penetrate the mandible."}
