4.1 Review visit
The first review visit with the patient should ideally take place 1 week after inserting the relined and converted denture. You can ask the patient about their experience with the new overdenture and be able to assess if any further adjustments are required. Also, as implant-supported overdentures require optimal oral hygiene by the patient, this visit provides an opportunity to check and reinforce this aspect.
