[Do the additional costs of mandibular implant-retained overdentures even out the improved quality of life?]

In publications, implant retained overdentures have frequently been suggested to be a cost-efficient treatment alternative to conventional dentures. But whether the additional health benefits of implant retained overdentures even out the higher costs is not answered unequivocally. The qualification of the improved quality of life and the valuation of costs are strongly determined by the decision maker (insurance and/or patient). Future research must be encouraged to further elucidate patient willingness to pay for implant retained overdentures and the societal return on investment herein more generally.
