However, the history of implant osseointegration has been relatively short compared with the longer traditions of various strategies used for tooth replacement. In Gothenburg, Sweden, Professor Per-Ingvar Brånemark treated the first edentulous patient in 1965 after several years of experimental animal studies. On a small scale, the Brånemark group continued the treatment of totally and partially edentulous patients in the Gothenburg area, and in 1977, their 10-year experience with this pioneering work was published.<xref rid="B1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>,<xref rid="B2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>,<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>,<xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref></p><p>Partial or full edentulism impairs masticatory function significantly and is a major oral health concern in a large part of the adult population. For more than 100 years, conventional dentures were the only available treatment for edentulous patients. Traditional treatments consisting of prostheses are often inadequate for restoring full masticatory function, and they can negatively affect nutrition, physical appearance and self-esteem. These problems generally worsen with age as additional teeth are lost, and alveolar bone resorption further destabilizes conventional dentures. To overcome these limitations and facilitate masticatory function, the attachment of dentures to endosseous dental implants has become a common clinical practice.<xref rid="B2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>,<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>,<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>,<xref rid="B6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>,<xref rid="B7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>,<xref rid="B8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>,<xref rid="B9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>,<xref rid="B10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>,<xref rid="B11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>,<xref rid="B12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>,<xref rid="B13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>,<xref rid="B14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>,<xref rid="B15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>,<xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>,<xref rid="B17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref></p><p>Although there has been a steady decline in the prevalence of tooth loss in the United States over the past several decades, edentulism continues to be a serious health problem. Weintraub and Burt determined that more than one-third of the American populations older than 70 years of age and more than one-quarter of the population older than 65 years of age are completely edentulous. National epidemiological survey data suggested that the adult population in need of one or two complete dentures would increase by 2020.<xref rid="B18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>,<xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref></p><p>Mandibular 2-implant overdentures have been recognized as the first choice of treatment for edentulous patients by the McGill University (Canada) consensus statement on overdentures, issued in 2002. When compared with conventional complete dentures, they provide greater patient satisfaction, better masticatory ability and better preservation of residual ridge height. Moreover, 2-implant overdentures are more cost-effective than conventional dentures and other modalities of implant-retained prostheses.<xref rid="B11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>,<xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>,<xref rid="B20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>,<xref rid="B21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>,<xref rid="B22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>,<xref rid="B23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>,<xref rid="B24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref></p><p>The main factors associated with the superior effectiveness of implant overdentures over conventional dentures are their retention and stability, which are provided by the attachment mechanism that connects the implants to the denture base.<xref rid="B8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref></p><p>All attachments are subject to corrosion, which is the gradual destruction of material, usually metals, by chemical reaction with the oral environment.

For making the Ackermann bars it was used titanium alloy (Ti for tooth milling - Cendres+ Métaux®, Biel/Bienne, Switzerland).</p><p>All bars were designed and manufactured in the same laboratory (Dentalor®, Ourense, Spain). The bars were designed to be 1.8 mm of diameter, round section (Ackerman bar) and 6 cm in length in order to be able to perform 2 different tests on the same bar.</p><p>First one proceeded to prepare a model for reading (scan) with 6 cm between pillars (implants positioners), then did the reading with ScanMarket® subsequently eliminating the unnecessary areas. Then it was made the virtual positioning of the bars in the milling block to execute Milling bars (Milling DMG Sauer Ultrasonic 20 linear). After obtaining all the bars one proceeded to the final finishing, with control of the diameter of the bars aided by a digital micrometer (Tecsud® 111-103e, Bogotá, Colombia).</p><p>Before starting the mechanical fatigue testing, all materials under study were immersed in artificial saliva. The artificial saliva used in this study was produced in laboratory formula basis, per liter (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">Table 1</xref>).<xref rid="B29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref></p><p>The 2 different pH values (pH 4 and pH 7) were obtained incorporating HCl in the base formula, in order to subject them to corrosion, for 30 days, according to the predefined distribution (<xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref>).</p><p>It was done the placement of the attachments and bars inside glass vials closed containing artificial saliva pH 7 and pH 4, then heating the oven (Memmert®, Duesseldorf, Germany) at 37℃ to simulate the conditions of oral temperature and placement of all the vials containing the sample in the oven for 30 days. There was a control of the pH of the vials 3 times per week for 30 days, using a digital pH meter (ebro® Electronic PTH 810, Ingolstadt, Germany).</p><p>After removing the attachments of the oven, it was necessary to incorporate them into small acrylic cubes simulating its location at the base of the prosthesis. That was achieved by making a mixture of thermopolymerizable acrylic (megaCRYL® N, Megadental, Germany) with acrylizing within forms specifically designed to be incorporated in the test machine CS-Dental Testing Machine. Relief of the retention area of the attachments with pink wax (Anutex, Kemdent®, England) and Pan Placement for 10 to 15 minutes at 2 bar pressure.</p><p>After this time, using the CS- Dental Testing Machine® (Idearum®, Igualada, Barcelona) (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Fig. 1</xref>), 5400 insertionremoval cycles were simulated (5 years), and wear (removal/insertion values) was registered at 8 different times (initial, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years and 5 years).</p><p>The attachment and bar were placed inside two brackets specifically designed for the testing machine. Then, it was run the entire protocol of driving and calibration of CSDental Testing Machine® and the test pieces were positioned inside the machine. Thereafter, it began the 5400 insertion and removal cycles of the attachments on the bar (5 years).</p><p>The testing machine has a USB port, allowing the collection of data by using a Pen Drive. Each file, during the execution of the 5400 insertion and removal cycles, registers about 250,000 read points transmitted by the load cell.</p><p>That sheet in Excel is treated by selecting the desired cycles for this study, ie, initial, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years and 5 years.</p><p>The surface characteristics were also evaluated using an stereoscope (Olympus® SZ61, Tokyo, Japan) with a 90× magnifier.</p><p>Statistical analyses was performed to assess the influence of the factors (pH and attachment) on the average value of the insertion force at the eight evaluated times, it was performed ANOVA with repeated measures.</p><p>The assumption of normality was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, with a <italic>P</italic>>.05 for all evaluated time points, according to the pH and the type of attachment.</p><p>The assumption of sphericity was tested with the Mauchy test (<italic>P</italic><.05), which rejected the sphericity of the data.

Forty bar/clip attachment system specimens were tested: Connection Bar Clip, Sterngold Hader Bar, 3i Gold Hader Clip and SIN Clipo. Specimens immersed in artificial saliva were tested for 5500 cycles using a servo hydraulic universal testing machine. Retention strength values were recorded initially and after 1100, 2200, 3300, 4400 and 5500 insertion and removal cycles during tensile testing. All attachments revealed a decrease in retention strength values during the fatigue testing after 5500 cycles of insertion and detachment. No relevant differences in retentive force were found in the groups using polymer clips and between the metal clip systems.
