  • Title: The use of laser-welded titanium framework technology: a case report for the totally edentulous patient.
    Author: Jackson BJ.
    Journal: J Oral Implantol; 2005; 31(6):294-300. PubMed ID: 16447902.
    Abstract:
    Laser-welded technology has become a viable alternative to the conventional lost wax-casting technique in the field of implant dentistry. Studies have demonstrated the predictable nature of laser-welded titanium frameworks for endosseous implants in the partial and totally edentulous patient. A standardized impression and fabrication procedure is required for an accurate and predictable superstructure. More long-term studies are needed for more widespread acceptance and usage by dental practitioners.
