The use of magnetic attachments in implant restoration has gradually increased and has been accepted by clinicians and patients because of its convenient and fast laboratory and clinical chairside treatment, short treatment course, relatively low cost, easy maintenance for patients, and relatively few complications.

In this article, we review the literature on certain patient and physician concerns about implant-supported magnet-retained overdenture, namely, corrosion, biocompatibility, retention and stability, masticatory function, maintenance after implant restoration, and patient satisfaction.
