“…The maximum biting force (MBF) is considered to be the force that generated by the greatest effort of the mandibular teeth against the maxillary teeth when the jaw is closed under the effect of the jaw muscles as a result of the coordination between the components of the masticatory system. Masticatory muscles such as Masseter, Temporalis, and Medial Pterygoid play an important role in the closure of the jaw and hence the biting forces [13], [14].…”

AIM: The study was conducted to evaluate maximum biting force (MBF) in two different attachment systems (bollard a vs. ball and socket attachment) retaining mandibular overdenture using a split-mouth design. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Twelve completely edentulous patients received complete dentures and after adaption of the patient with the new denture, 24 implants were inserted in the canine region using two-stage surgical technique and conventional loading protocol. Six patients received the Bollard attachment at the right side and the Ball and Socket at the left side. Moreover, the other six patients received the bollard attachment at the left side and the ball and socket attachment at the right side. Each patient was treated according to split-mouth design. Insertion of each of the attachment type was assigned randomly. Using occlusal force meter instrument, MBF was measured immediately after loading (0), after 6 months (6), and after 12 months (12). RESULTS: Significant statistical differences (p < 0.05) were obvious in in MBF between Attachment (1) and Attachment (2) immediately after loading (0 months), after 6 months (6) and after 12 months (12) follow-up visits. CONCLUSION: Mandibular implant retained overdenture received Bollard abutment that retained with the denture by the help of resilient liner “Retention.sil”* without housing have higher biting forces than mandibular implant retained overdenture with ball abutment where the plastic house was picked up by monomer free self-cured acrylic resin.
