Abstract: Overdenture bars secured to a portion of a jaw bone provide a mounting platform for dental prosthetics. One method to form an overdenture bar includes obtaining a digital image of a portion of a mouth, transferring the image to a computer and forming a three dimensional image of the portion. A virtual overdenture bar is designed to terminate at opposing first and second distal ends and have a first thickness defined by opposing first and second surfaces. The overdenture bar has an extension projecting from at least one distal end adjacent the second surface. Each extension has a second thickness that is less than the first thickness. A socket extends through each extension for engagement with the dental prosthetic. A digital file of the virtual overdenture bar is transferred to a number controlled machine and the overdenture bar and extensions machined from a single piece of stock material.

Abstract: A child restraint for use with a lap-type seat belt having a buckle assembly including a first belt section having a like buckle assembly adapted to couple with the buckle assembly of the seat belt. The restraint further includes a second belt section affixed to the first and forming a loop for encircling the torso of a child, and the second belt section also has a releasable belt buckle assembly at the ends thereof. A third belt section is secured to either or both of the first or second belt sections and extends from a front stomach area down under the crotch to the back of the child to be held in the second belt section, and the third belt section has a loop at the end thereof for encircling the second belt section at the front stomach area.
