Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the retention of mini implant overdenture by the number, the type of magnetic attachment, and the directions of applied dislodging force.
The experimental groups were designed by the number and type of magnetic attachment. Twenty samples were tested with Magden implants. Each attachment was composed of the magnet assembly in overdenture sample and the abutment keeper in a mandibular model. Dislodging forces were applied to the overdenture samples (50.0 mm/min) in 3 directions. The loading was repeated 10 times in each direction. The values of dislodging force were analyzed statistically using SPSS at 95% level of confidence.
The retentive force of group 2 was greater than that of group 1 in both types of attachment in every direction (
Proper retentive properties for implant overdenture were obtained, regardless of the number and type of magnetic attachment. In both types of magnetic attachment, the greater retentive force was attained with more implants. Oblique retentive force of flat type magnetic attachment was greater than that of cushion type. Among all subgroups, anterior-posterior retentive force was the lowest among three different directions of dislodging force.

For overdenture supported by both implants and oral mucosa, fewer implants are necessary compared to the prosthesis supported only by implants. Usually, overdenture consists of 2 or more implants placed on upper and lower arch.<xref rid="B1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref> An attachment device (male part) connected to the implant has a corresponding coupling unit (female part) fixed to the tissue surface of the complete denture. When the attachment components are correctly connected, the complete denture can be provided appropriate support, retention, and stability by both implant and mucosa.<xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref></p><p>Since the concept of overdenture fixation for the overdenture introduced in Switzerland in 1898,<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref> different attachment systems have been used to retain mandibular overdenture. Bars with clips, studs, and magnets were reported as viable treatment options. For implant overdenture, Mensor<xref rid="B6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref> also reported that bar, stud, and magnetic attachments were the most common attachment systems. It has been shown that solitary attachments are less technique sensitive and easier to clean compared to bar attachments.<xref rid="B7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref> Due to their simple application, studs and magnets have gained a wide popularity in clinical practice.<xref rid="B8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref></p><p>Application of the magnet in dentistry has been attempted to enhance the stability of the denture by repulsive force of magnet on both side of complete denture since 1930.<xref rid="B9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref> Since then, several investigations have been performed to increase the retention of denture. Magnet was surgically implanted in the mandible of edentulous patients to get magnetic attraction.<xref rid="B10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref><xref rid="B11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref><xref rid="B12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref> Freedman<xref rid="B13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref> tried to use repulsive force between magnets placed in upper and lower complete dentures. It was rarely succeeded to obtain adequate force to aid denture retention, and exposure of the magnet in wound area was also reported.</p><p>With the introduction of powerful rare earth magnets such as Samarium-Cobalt (Sm-Co) and Neodymium (Nd-Fe-B), the use of implanted magnets to aid denture retention was investigated actively again.<xref rid="B12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref><xref rid="B14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref><xref rid="B15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref> These magnets could be produced in dimensions small enough to be used in dental applications, while still providing the necessary force. Several investigators reported clinically satisfying results by using implants and magnetic attachments in patients unsatisfied with the existing mandibular complete denture. The results were permanent retention and proper dispersion of occlusal force of the magnetic attachment compared to other attachment systems.<xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref><xref rid="B17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref><xref rid="B18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref> Also, magnetic attachment is easily dislodged by lateral force, which prevents the damage of implant. Clinical application of magnetic attachment has become easier as several types of magnetic attachment have been introduced. Flat type with thin disk form performed high retention force, and cushion type with 0.4 mm of gap between magnet assembly and resin cap showed shock-absorbing effect on implant fixture.</p><p>In case of conventional dental implants with diameters from 3.4 to 5.8 mm, patients need sufficient bone width for implant placement. Thus, conventional implants may not be chosen for some patients with severely resorbed mandibular ridge because of their narrow ridges and lack of keratinized mucosa. In this situation, mini dental implants, which have diameters ranging from 1.8 to 3.3 mm, serve as alternatives. <xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref><xref rid="B20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref></p><p>The purpose of this study was to compare the retention of mini implant overdenture by the number and the type of magnetic attachments and by the vertical, oblique, and anterior-posterior directions of applied dislodging force to overdenture.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods"><title>MATERIALS AND METHODS</title><p>Specimens were divided into 2 groups by the number of implants placed, group 1 with 2 implants and group 2 with 4 implants. In group 1 model, two implants were bilaterally placed on each canine area, 15 mm distal to the center of mandible. In group 2 model, 4 implants were bilaterally placed on lateral incisor and first premolar area, 8 mm and 20 mm distal to center of mandible (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Fig. 1</xref>). According to the types of magnetic attachment, each group was divided into 2 subgroups. Two kinds of magnetic attachment were used in this study: flat type (DX 600, Aichi steel, Tokai, Japan) and cushion type (SX-L, Aichi steel, Tokai, Japan).</p><p>Mini implant fixtures, 2.7 mm in diameter and 10.0 mm in length (Magden, Shinwon Dental, Seoul, Korea), were placed in mandibular edentulous model (CHS-EDS1, M.Tech Korea, Seoul, Korea) with experimental soft tissue. Magnetic keepers (Magden, Shinwon Dental, Seoul, Korea) with 4.0 mm in diameter and 2.0 mm in length were installed with torque of 20 N.</p><p>A cobalt-chrome metal framework was fabricated to fit both mandibular models (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Fig. 2</xref>). To apply dislodging tensile force to metal framework, loops were formed on buccal and lingual sides of midline and in both first molar area of the framework, 4 nuts of 3 mm diameter were soldered to connect the framework with overdenture housing.</p><p>Placing the metal framework on mandibular model, overdenture housing was fabricated by pouring self-curing resin (Ortho-Jet Orthodontic Acrylic Resin, Lang dental Mfg Co., Inc., Wheeling, WV, USA). Implants and undercuts were blocked-out and resin separator was applied.</p><p>Overdenture housings were duplicated with putty type impression material (Silagum Putty soft, DMG, Hamburg, Germany) as duplicating molds. Self-curing resin was mixed according to manufacturer's instruction, poured into fabricated mold, and polymerized under 3 bar (43.5 psi), 55℃, for 30 minutes. Four connecting holes for stainless steel volt (2.0 mm diameter, 7.0 mm length) were formed on the surface of overdenture housing. Ten samples were used in each group and a total of 20 samples were fabricated.</p><p>Keeper screws were installed on the implant fixture by torque of 20 N, and mounting ring was mounted on the keeper. Magnetic attachment was placed on the keeper and fixed to the overdenture housing by self-curing resin. Venting hole was formed on overdenture housing.</p><p>Three directions of tensile force, vertical, oblique and anterior-posterior, were applied to measure retentive force. Metal framework was seated on the mandibular model fixed to Instron testing machine (Model 3344, Instron Co., Norwood, MA, USA). Overdenture housing with magnetic attachment was connected to the framework by stainlesssteel volts and nuts. Four 16.00 cm Stainless-steel metal chains were mounted on upper jig of Instron by customfabricated molds, and 2 of the metal chains were connected to the loops placed on buccal and lingual side of midline and another 2 chains to the loops placed on the first molar area. All chains were adjusted to achieve tight connection.</p><p>Tensile test was performed at a cross-head speed of 50.0 mm/min, the dislodging speed of denture from ridge, to measure retentive force. Overdenture samples were tested 10 times with 3 different directions, a total of 30 times on each sample. The retentive forces were determined and recorded.</p><p>Statistical analysis was performed with IBM SPSS Statistics v. 22.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The mean and the standard deviation of each group were calculated. All data were analyzed with Mann-Whitney U test to check for significant differences among the groups. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were also used to analyze the effects of the direction of the dislodging force within the groups. All analyses were performed at 95% level of confidence (α = .05).</p></sec><sec sec-type="results"><title>RESULTS</title><p>Five overdenture samples were fabricated for each subgroup.

It would be possible to provide a stable denture and increased load-bearing capacity to the edentulous patient. If osseous condition precludes a standard sized implant approach, such as of patients with inadequate interdental space, reduced interocclusal space, or narrow atrophic osseous contour,<xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref> mini implants may provide an alternative treatment. With mini implants, 6-year survival rate of 95.5% for single tooth restorations and stabilization of overdenture was reported.<xref rid="B21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref></p><p>Meanwhile, permanent magnets have been used to improve retention and stability of dentures for many years,<xref rid="B22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref> and magnetic attachments have become one of the most common attachments used for these purposes.<xref rid="B23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref> Many authors have described procedures regarding the use of magnets and a high degree of patient satisfaction has been reported.<xref rid="B24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref> The implant overdenture is a two-component system that consists of an implant keeper and a magnet built into the denture. When the denture is seated, the keeper becomes an induced magnet by contacting with the magnet in the denture. Due to the attractive force of this magnet, the retention of overdenture is enhanced significantly.</p><p>In case of overdenture, retention of prosthesis and retentive force of magnetic attachment are highly correlated. Gillings<xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref> reported that proper attractive force to retain overdentures is about 400 - 600 gf (3.91 - 5.88 N), and that attractive force less than 140 - 310 gf (1.37 - 3.03 N) is insufficient for retention of implant overdenture. When oblique retentive force is 53 - 94 gf (0.52 - 0.92 N), it is reported that magnetic attachment may not be able to resist horizontal movement of denture.<xref rid="B26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref> In this study, 50.0 mm/min of cross-head speed was set to measure the retentive force, which is the rate of the mandible as it moves away from the denture base during mastication.<xref rid="B27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref> Usually, slower speed of 0.5 mm/min is chosen to measure maximum attraction force, and this speed of separation was also used in the study of Gillings.</p><p>Testing the magnetic components at 50.0 mm/min speed decreased the retentive force by 3 times compared to the result upon application of slow speed of separation.<xref rid="B28" ref-type="bibr">28</xref><xref rid="B29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref> Thus, the values of retentive force observed in this study are sufficient to retain overdenture, especially when retained by 4 implants. Oblique retentive forces obtained in every subgroup of this study were found to be enough to resist the horizontal movement of denture. As the number of implants increased from 2 to 4, retentive force of magnetic attachment is significantly increased in every direction and in all types of magnetic attachments (<italic>P</italic> < .05). In case of flat type, vertical retentive force increased by 4.81 times, while oblique and anterior posterior retentive force increased by 2.82 times and 2.19 times, respectively. Cushion type is reported to show similar tendency; vertical retentive force increases by 3.95 times, oblique retentive force by 2.71 times, and anterior-posterior retentive force by 2.03 times. This result is consistent with the findings of Seo,<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref> and Ma and Shin,<xref rid="B30" ref-type="bibr">30</xref> which concluded that as number of fixture increased, the displacement of overdenture was decreased.</p><p>As several types of magnetic attachment have been developed, clinicians have a chance to choose the most appropriate type of magnetic attachment suitable for various clinical situations. Open-field and closed-field magnetic systems have been used to retain dentures for many years. Although the open-field system is the first of the magnets used for the retention of the overdentures,<xref rid="B23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref><xref rid="B31" ref-type="bibr">31</xref> many commercial systems now consist of the closed-field type. All magnetic assemblies investigated in this study were closed-field systems, so the retention reduced rapidly with increased separation.<xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref></p><p>Comparing flat type magnet with cushion type, flat type magnet is more retentive than other types, and cushion type has shock-absorbing effects and permits vertical movement of dentures. Although it was not discussed in this study because of its incompatibility with mini-implant, dome type of magnet was reported to permit lateral movement of dentures.<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref> In this study, 2 types, flat and cushion type of magnetic attachment, were investigated to compare the retention and stability of the implant overdenture by the number and the type of magnetic attachment and the direction of applied force. Cushion type of magnetic attachment was found to be less retentive in oblique direction of dislodging force compared to flat type. Similar result was observed in the study of Seo.<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref> Soe stated that it would be the result of a bigger dimension of cushion type magnetic attachment. As cushion type magnetic assemblies contain resin cap, the bigger dimension of magnetic attachment could easily cause dislocation of the magnetic attachment when excessive self-curing resin is applied and relief of denture is insufficient. The difference of net dislodging force direction applied on the magnetic attachment between flat type and cushion type attachment could also influence the results. Attractive force of magnet is generally stronger to vertical direction of dislodging force than to lateral direction. In this study, the dislodging force is transmitted via resin cap, and therefore dislodging force of oblique direction has more lateral than vertical component of force to magnetic attachment in cushion type attachment. The dislodging force of cushion type attachment was more lateral than that of flat type attachment. This is the reason for lower retentive force of cushion type attachment to oblique dislodging force than that of flat type attachment. Cushion type attachment can be appropriate treatment option for the abutment, which is vulnerable to lateral force.</p><p>The highest value of retentive force was observed when oblique retentive force was applied on flat type magnetic attachment in group 1. Also, both flat and cushion type magnetic attachments were found to provide the highest resistance to oblique dislodgement followed by vertical and anterior-posterior direction. In group 2, both vertical and oblique retentive forces were significantly higher than anterior-posterior retentive force regardless of the type of magnetic attachment (<italic>P</italic> < .05). The lowest retentive force was observed when anterior-posterior dislodging force was applied on cushion type of magnetic attachment (<italic>P</italic> < .05). This result can be misunderstood that magnetic attachment is much retentive to lateral movement of denture than to vertical movement, but oblique or anterior-posterior dislodging force did not reproduce the lateral movement of denture in clinical situation. These directions of dislodging force are rather similar with movement of denture when patients chew sticky food or masticate food unilaterally. However, with high value of oblique retentive force, it can be considered that the magnetic attachments used in this study may provide appropriate stability of denture. Further studies are needed to determine the influencing factors of the stability of denture.</p><p>To achieve the sufficient stability of denture, the break-away force of magnetic retainers must exceed the displacing force applied to denture. When vertical retentive force is greater than anterior-posterior retentive force, stability of denture is reported to be sufficient to maintain the denture in position on its basal seat.<xref rid="B24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref><xref rid="B27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref> Gillings<xref rid="B32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref> reported that such displacing forces may be as low as 0.22 to 0.53 N. In present study, both flat and cushion type of magnetic attachment are reported to have greater vertical retentive force than the displacing forces, regardless of the number of implants. Thus, the magnetic attachment used in this study may be useful to retain denture in position.</p><p>From the limited data of this study, implant overdentures with 2-4 implants were observed that it had clinically proper retentive force, and overdenture with more implants, if possible, can be considered as more effective and satisfactory treatment. Especially for patients with severely resorbed mandibular ridge, mini implants with no need for additional surgery and magnetic attachments with shock-absorbing effect to lateral force<xref rid="B33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref> can be an appropriate treatment choice.</p></sec><sec sec-type="conclusions"><title>CONCLUSION</title><p>This <italic>in vitro</italic> study tested the influence of the type and the number of magnetic attachment of the retention of mandibular mini implant overdenture. Measurements of retentive force were performed by 3 different directions of dislodging force. Experimental groups were classified by the numbers of implant, 2 or 4, and each groups were divided into 2 subgroup by the types of magnetic attachment, flat or cushion type. With five overdenture samples of each subgroup, a total of 20 samples were fabricated. Within the parameters of this study design, following conclusions may be made. First, In every subgroup of experimental group, magnetic attachment has proper retentive properties for implant overdenture. Second, the more implant placed, the greater retentive force achieved regardless of the type of magnetic attachment. Third, when oblique direction of dislodging force is applied, flat type of magnetic attachment is more retentive than cushion type of magnetic attachment. Finally, regardless of the type and number of implants, anterior-posterior retentive force is the lowest among 3 different directions of dislodging force.</p><p>According to these conclusions, the mini implant overdenture with magnetic attachment can be the treatment of choice, when patient is with extremely resorbed mandibular edentulous ridge. With mini implant overdenture, esthetic and functional rehabilitation are expected to be achieved. With appropriate circumstances of patients, better retention and stability of overdenture could be expected to implant overdenture with 4 implants.</p></sec></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Burns</surname><given-names>DR</given-names></name><name><surname>Unger</surname><given-names>JW</given-names></name><name><surname>Elswick</surname><given-names>RK</given-names><suffix>Jr</suffix></name><name><surname>Giglio</surname><given-names>JA</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Prospective clinical evaluation of mandibular implant overdentures: Part II--Patient satisfaction and preference</article-title><source>J Prosthet Dent</source><year>1995</year><volume>73</volume><fpage>364</fpage><lpage>369</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">7783015</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="B2"><label>2</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Gunne</surname><given-names>HS</given-names></name><name><surname>Bergman</surname><given-names>B</given-names></name><name><surname>Enbom</surname><given-names>L</given-names></name><name><surname>Högström</surname><given-names>J</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Masticatory efficiency of complete denture patients.
