Cementation There is a dirth of literature on cementation of dental implants. Failure of the implant and prosthesis due to leaving excess cement is a common concern (3,4,5). I would highly recommend modern retrievable cements. Numerous studies support retrievable cements (6) Being able to remove the crown or crowns in the future as an adjunct to treat peri-implantitis, occlusal loads, or to change the use of the implant should their natural dentition change in a way that makes it a logi-cal choice is crucial. I cement most of my prosthesis with a zinc oxide eugenol cement for the additional benefit of having the antibacterial effect from eugenol. If you would like to see additional information or cases involving mini implants in the journal please email Dr Greg Cannizzo at drgrc@joltmail.com and put in the subject line mini implants. 5.
