I try to place 6 implants in the maxillary arch and at least 4 in the mandibular arch to secure removable dentures. Sometimes the bone quality is poor and I cannot place that many, especially in the maxillary arch. I have actually placed as few as 2 maxillary SDIs and been able to secure the denture because the bone quality was so poor. During the patient consultation, I never guarantee a certain number of implants or charge a different price based on the number of SDIs placed. The number of SDIs has to do with the patient's bone quality, not my ability or time spent.
The o-rings arrive to my office in the housings if the housings are processed by the lab, prior to delivery to my office, or if the housings are "pulled" with hard in-office reline acrylic in my office, the o-rings are also in the housings.

I love denture fabrication, but only when secured by implants! I will not place a lower denture without implant stabilization, and I prefer small diameter implants for the reasons presented in the videos. Many comprehensive cases and a library of all the DM and comprehensive cases in DentistryMasterClasses.com. Check it out and subscribe!
Dental Minute with Steven T. Cutbirth, DDS i agree doc! I too have been placing several dozens of 3m mini implants with great satisfaction. Do you delay implant loading? Or do you do same day o-ring placement ?
So glad I saw this. My dentist is getting me ready for partials upper and lower. He is sending me to an oral surgeon that I know for a fact due to experience that he drills out the teeth. I want to be able to have implants for dentures like you show here in this video. I know it's important to remove the teeth more carefully where you will put the 4 on 4 or whatever. I love how you do everything and feel I would be really happy if my dentist followed what you do. You showed all the important parts and important details. How do I ask him nicely to watch this video without making him feel like I am being bossy. These will be my teeth and my life and I really want to be happy with them. The quality of teeth as well. I need him to know what teeth you get. You made a vast improvement in that lady's facial and mouth looks. She looks younger. I know she wearing make up in the second picture. That's always done but one can really see the difference. I want my teeth to show a little as well, too. You also knew how to fix the side that was in hyper occlusion . My friend said that she has full dentures and got them three times and the last pair feels like there is a swing set in her mouth. I've heard so many horror stories. My mom got full up dentures and she said to put them in right away and don't take them out a lot in the beginning and the gums will settle to fit the dentures perfectly. I'm getting partials tho. Also she has a lower partials. My dentist sends his out to a lab to be made. I don't know if he does as much work on them as you do. He's only going with the partials. No implants. Is it a good idea to use implants on partials? I'm missing quite a few teeth. Both upper and lower four teeth will not be there most of my lower molars are missing. He's trying to clip the uppers to fixed back teeth and on the bottom I will have no back teeth to attach them to to help them stay in. Here I feel I need the small implants especially. Do you agree?
I place a lot of root form implants, but for removable full and partial denture stabilization I prefer small diameter implants, and these have "balls." SDIs do not have to be parallel, and there can be up to 30% differential between the alignments of the SDIs. There are many reasons I personally prefer SDIs for removable appliance stabilization. I cover these reasons in my SDI/denture videos.
Thank you ,awesome case..Can you do an upper U-SHAPE complete denture mini implant supported instead of having a full palatal coverage denture? Can we do the processed complete dentures first then insert the implants?would it be easier to the that? Can we use heat self cured resin for the hard pick up of the metal housing?
Yes, most of the time the denture does not cover the palate. Yes, you can fabricate the dentures first, before placing the implants, but I think the denture will be stronger if the implant housings are processed in the denture, plus it is easier if you do not have to "pull" the housings in the denture. They can be processed into the denture in the lab if you place the implants first. I use hard self curing acrylic pick up material for picking up housings if the housings are not cured in the denture in the laboratory. I have tried just about everything during my almost 40 years of practice. There are usually multiple ways of doing anything, but the methods I am teaching are the simplest and best I have found.
I have the patient bite down on cotton rolls bilaterally to check for high spots on the tissue side of the denture that might cause sore spots. The paste is pressure indicator paste to identify the pressure spots in the denture. Take your practice to the Top Tier.

That's what my teeth looked like at wax try in they didn't close at front and the gap was bigger on one side,and my top lip disappeared lol and had a severe case of monkey mouth!! Struggled to shut lips!!! I got the feeling the dentist thinks I'm a pain in the ass or mental health!!.....he did say bite was wrong on one side of the molars badly so they had to go back to lab anyway, but said the only way round the other probs would be push teeth going inwards or use smaller teeth both of which I said NO WAY to.......I am making my own wax models now and have realised that because my lower canine roots are still in I had to grind a few mm of them from bottom and diagonally to fit in right with the other 4 lower teeth so the top teeth fit in right......they are NHS as that's all I can afford for now and I hope he doesn't tell me that's the best I can get on NHS because when I said I hate to complain but don't want to end up with something I can't wear because they look so stupid he said thats up to you if u don't want to wear, I'm like no way I 100% HAVE to be able to wear!!!! Also they felt loose is that normal for wax try in??
Thanks for posting Dr. Cutbirth. Have done a few cases of implant overdentures in dental school and quite a few completes... I decided about a year ago that I will never do a mandibular denture in private practice without implants... it's nice to hear that I'm not the only one who feels this way. I don't believe my school doesn't has the syringable hard acrylic you use. What is the name of that material? Also, I have read mini implants fracture easily or have higher failure rates... would you attribute this to dentists not spreading the load to soft tissues enough? Last question regarding the type of teeth you order... what is the brand name for those? I've only seen and worked with cheap plastic denture teeth.
No, if used correctly, small diameter (mini) implants do not fracture any more frequently than root form implants. In about 20 years I have fractured 4 and those were fractured while I was screwing them in. I have never had a small diameter implant fracture once placed. I have had a small number become loose, but only a very few and have had none fracture once placed. The hard acrylic is manufactured by Park Dental. Just ask them what I order. I am not pushing minis over root forms. I place a lot of root form implants as well as minis. Each has a place. I just normally prefer small diameter implants for denture retention if the patient cannot afford or does not want all-on-4. I also like all-on-4 and will do a video for DentistryMasterClasses.com soon on that procedure. This is a wonderful time to be in dentistry if you know what you are doing!
Thanks for the response. I did get a subscription to MasterClass. It is a great deal. I wish there was more material on there for your cases, but I'm sure it will be an incredible library in time. I've learned quite a bit already from the little I've watched.
DentistryMasterClasses.com has only been going on for about 6 months. We add more comprehensive cases every week, along with the library of all the Dental Minute videos and previous comprehensive cases. I have literally hundreds, probably thousands of PowerPoint and video cases. We will be covering everything from New Patient interviews and consultations to the details of full mouth reconstructions, increasing vertical dimension with sinus lifts, bone grafting, platelet rich fibrin and implants. Stay with it, you will love the information! You can watch the actual videos being recorded on Friday and Saturday mornings. Look at our Facebook page on Friday and Saturday mornings at 9 CST and there will be a notification we are streaming live. You can ask questions as I am narrating the videos on those mornings and I will answer them live.
Perfect. Did not know that, but will tune in when possible! I feel lucky to live in an age where access to all of this information is at my fingertips. Love your dental work and the information you present. It is to the point, and can apply it to my patients even while in school. Best wishes.

When do you add the o-rings to the housings? After the polishing when housings are in denture? At next appointment?
The o-rings arrive to my office in the housings if the housings are processed by the lab, prior to delivery to my office, or if the housings are "pulled" with hard in-office reline acrylic in my office, the o-rings are also in the housings. Does that answer your question?

Where are you located?
Waco, Texas.
Wow! So sorry, but there is no way I can diagnose and treatment plan your restoration without a comprehensive examination.
Good work Dr,
Why do you use ball and socket and not locators. If the implants are not parallel do the ball and socket seat?
Thanks
I place a lot of root form implants, but for removable full and partial denture stabilization I prefer small diameter implants, and these have "balls." SDIs do not have to be parallel, and there can be up to 30% differential between the alignments of the SDIs. There are many reasons I personally prefer SDIs for removable appliance stabilization. I cover these reasons in my SDI/denture videos.
Thanks verymuch for your information,
Sorry Dr another question,
if i place root form imlants and put on them ball and socket ( two piece ) do the implants have to be parallel
Thank you Dr. Steven, video is very informative.
