Mendonca G et al. - This study reports a clinical situation involving a patient restored with a mandibular overdenture that presented a fractured implant 2 years after placement. The probable cause of the implant fracture was dueto biomechanical overload caused by parafunctional habits. The implant head was flattened to make it smooth, retapping the internal screw, installing a new abutment (longer), and fabricating part of the overdenture bar. This treatment was timesaving for the patient in that the prosthesis was repaired in the shortest time possible.
