One of the most challenging areas in implant dentistry is to achieve passive insertion of a screw-retained metal framework for a bar retained over denture or a fixed partial denture.

Galvano forming technique using Galvano, a pure 24-carat gold transform from liquid to solid with the use of our specialized procedure and device is the basis of our proven technique to achieve a perfect fit, superior esthetics and proven longevity for Implant supported denture or passive technique for any telescopic or removal dentures. This technology is available only in our laboratory. Instead of using a clip, we used galvano formed bar to achieve an absolutely passive framework fit regardless of the number of the implants and their positions in the jaw.

Clip technique vs. Galvano Bar Technique
The most common type of implant supported denture is bar-retained denture which is a thin metal bar that follows the curve of your jaw is attached to two to five implants that have been placed in your jawbone. Clips or other types of attachments are fitted to the bar the denture, or to both. The denture fits over the bar and is securely clipped into place by the attachments.

Once the metal bar and the denture framework have been fitted together properly, the teeth are temporarily placed on the framework in wax. The whole denture is then tried in your mouth. If everything works well, the teeth are secured in the denture framework permanently. The bar or ball attachments also will be secured. You will have to return to your dentist for another visit to have the completed denture inserted. When the denture is inserted, the denture is clipped onto the bar or snapped onto the ball attachments.
