Abstract
The advantages of cement-retained implant-supported restorations over screw-retained implant restorations are well documented. Difficulty with prosthesis retrieval and excess cement removal may be experienced with cemented restorations. The technique described allows for the fabrication of a retrievable cemented prosthesis that is simple, practical, and effective.
