Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this report was to introduce a technique for removing a cement-retained superstructure from the implant abutment easily without any special instrumentation.<br/> Procedures: A cement-retained superstructure was fabricated using conventional methods. A hole (diameter: ≤1 mm) was prepared from the outer to inner surface of the superstructure before casting, with a horizontal opening for removal. A machined carbide bur was inserted into the horizontal hole for removal of the superstructure. The bur was pressed downward to check whether the superstructure could be removed properly. When removing the superstructure, the bur was inserted into the opening of the superstructure and pressed downward. <br/>Conclusion: A machined carbide bur applied in a horizontal opening fabricated in the cement-retained superstructure was effective for easy removal. Furthermore, this technique reduces the pain due to impact force when using a conventional removing device.
