The Marius Bridge: Denture Alternative
The Marius bridge is a rigid non-resilient implant supported restoration that can be removed by the patient for oral hygiene purposes.Unlike conventional denture designs, the Marius bridge is NOT TISSUE SUPPORTED. The acrylic extensions serve only to restore lost hard and soft tissue.
There are no extensions into the palatal area beyond the lost alveolar height or width following dental extraction.
Once the bridge is seated with the posterior safety locks engaged, there is no possibility of accidental dislodging or loosening, as can occur with other bar and clip removable denture (fixed bridge) designs.
The Marius bridge uses a dual bar system incorporating both a screw-retained bar and a corresponding bar that is built into a removable prosthesis (denture).The bar connecting to the implants is made up of two separate bars. One bar is a custom milled Procera framework that corresponds to the implant placements with a second, attachment bar that mounts directly to the Procera framework.
The bar integrated into the denture or fixed bridge prosthesis (the attachment bar) is designed to provide a custom fit and mounting to the bars that are attached to the implants.
Occlusal forces are normalized and distributed evenly across the entire implant framework, thereby promoting healthy bone and eliminating osseointegration failures that can occur with some traditional bridges or individual denture anchors (mini implants or standard implants).
The placement and positioning of implants are configured into a tilted fashion. In contrast to non-tilted implants, the benefits of using a tilted design are considerable.- Improvement in force distribution
- Avoids the antrum
- Eliminates the need for grafting
- Allows engagement of dense bone
- Permits longer implants in less bone
