A prosthetic retention system for edentulous patients comprising a prefabricated bar and two implants; where the said bar consists of a tubular central piece that has a round or ovoid cross section and two hollow capsules at its ends; and where the implants are formed by one single piece, with an upper zone that connects to the bar and a lower zone that is introduced into the patient's bone tissue.

Prosthetic retention system for edentulous patients consisting of a prefabricated bar and two implants

The invention discloses an integrated 3 D surgical guide, guide bar, mini-implant system and a procedure to stabilize dental prostheses, based on implanting two parallel mini-implants at a given distance and then joining them by means of a prosthetic bar mounted on them, thus achieving the required strength to mount on the bar a metallic clip that retains a dental prosthesis. The advantage of this integrated system is the stabilization of dental prostheses with high precision and save standardized protocol, lower costs and less trauma for the patient than the traditionally used method.
