About this trial
The aim of the study will be comparing between the occlusion and disocclusion time in mandibular single overdenture supported with immediately loaded two conventional implants versus immediately loaded four mini-implants.
Research question Is there a difference in occlusion and disocclusion time between two mandibular single dentures, one supported by immediately loaded two conventional implants and the second one supported by immediately loaded four mini-implants? Primary outcome: occlusion and disocclusion time Secondary outcome: Kapur index The null hypothesis is that there is no difference between both treatment modalities on occlusion and disocclusion time.
