12. Determinação das forças geradas por resinas acrílicas ativadas quimicamente durante o processo de transferência da posição de implantes Análise fotoelástica
The great number of laboratorial phases during implant-supported prostheses may contribute to deficient passivity fit. This misalignment could lead to screws relieves and also, the loss of osseointegration. Impression technique is an important step to be observed. Many materials and techniques are involved in this stage and acrylic resin is the most frequent
