Hey this is a question for anyone that has a thought on it. I welcome any comments.
So I'm working on an implant case[hiossen, screw retained previously, with a dess ti base] for tooth #3 and for some reason the screw keeps coming loose in the patients mouth after some time, which I believe is as soon as a few weeks, as well as longer too and I don't know how long. It's happened already 4 times that I know of. The implant is centered ok on the patients jaw, however it comes out at an angle diagonally(so mesially and buccally). The Dr has tried numerous things to fix like new screws reducing occlusion and flattening, making proximal contacts very light or tighter. Even tried( however not recommended) something to hold the threads in place better and prevent vibrations on the screw.
Anyone have any thoughts on this???
--i am definitely out of ideas but the Dr ordered a custom abutment this time and although I don't feel it will make a difference, who knows right??
I don't have a lot of experience when it comes to implants and especially not when it is is a problem case....
