    Author: Ohkubo C, Kobayashi M, Okamoto N, Hosoi T, Kurtz KS, Murata T.
    Journal: Eur J Prosthodont Restor Dent; 2009 Dec; 17(4):188-91. PubMed ID: 20158062.
    Abstract:
    An implant-retained Konus (tapered double crown) telescopic complete overdenture was fabricated for a mandibular edentulous patient. The Konus telescopic overdenture coping crowns and framework assembly were cast with commercially pure (CP) titanium, joined using laser welding and placed on four one-piece implants. Sufficient retention and stability were obtained using this method.
