Article Synopsis
- This research examines how different attachment systems and cleaning methods affect microbial growth on implant-supported overdentures, which are important for patients with tooth loss.

- Combining ultrasonic cleaning with chemical cleaners was found to be the most effective approach for reducing both biofilm and viable bacteria on the dentures, suggesting better cleaning strategies are necessary for maintaining oral hygiene.
