Prosthetic restoration types of dental implants (original) (raw)

Evaluation of the Clinical Success of Implant - Supported Restorations- A Retrospective Study with at Least Two Years of Follow-up

Meandros Medical and Dental Journal, 2021

Objective: This retrospective clinical study aimed to investigate the long-term clinical success of dental implants restored with splinted or non-splinted posterior prostheses with different retention systems. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients who had undergone dental implant surgery and prosthesis treatment and had a follow-up period of at least 2 years were included in this study. Marginal bone loss was measured from the surrounding bone levels on the mesial and distal surfaces of the implants using a millimetre ruler on panoramic radiographs. The plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI) and bleeding on probing (BOP) were also measured. The Mann-Whitney U test and ANOVA test were used for statistical analysis. Results: The mean values of mesial and distal bone loss were 0.72±0.81 and 0.62±0.58, respectively. The correlation coefficient between mesial and distal bone loss was 0.431; thus, a significant difference was found (p<0.05). A significant relationship was found between the GI (p=0.004) and PI (p=0.000) of dental implants with different retention types. No significant relationship was observed between BOP and retention type (p>0.05). Conclusion: Clinically, given the long-term maintenance of soft and hard tissue health, successful results can be achieved with a two-member fixed prosthetic rehabilitation plan on two implants. Amaç: Bu retrospektif klinik çalışma, posterior bölgedeki farklı retansiyon sistemlerine sahip splintli veya tek başına planlanan protetik tedavinin dental implantların uzun vadeli klinik başarısına etkisini değerlendirmektedir.

Assessment of demographic and clinical data related to dental implants in a group of Turkish patients treated at a university clinic

The Journal of Advanced Prosthodontics, 2013

PURPOSE. This retrospective study analyzed the distribution of the dental implants with regards to age and gender of the patients and type of indication for the implant therapy, as well as the location, dimension and type of the implants. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The data of demographics (age and gender), type of indication for implant therapy, anatomical location, dimensions (length and diameter) and type (bone and tissue level) of 1616 implants were recorded from patient charts between January 2000 and January 2010. Descriptive statistics were analyzed using a chi-squared test for demographic parameters, type of indication, tooth position, anatomical location, implant dimensions and type (α=.05). RESULTS. The patient pool comprised of 350 women and 266 men, with a mean age of 52.12 ± 13.79 years. The difference in n% of the implants of the age groups was statistically significant between the types of indications. The difference in the position of the implants was statistically significant between the n% of the implants of all age groups. Gender did not significantly vary, except that the diameter of the implants was significantly higher for the standard diameter implants in males. The difference between the implant positions was statistically significant when considered according to indication. The relationship between implant length and anatomical location was statistically significant. CONCLUSION. The indication for dental implant use is age dependent and the type and size of the implant seems to be strongly related to the location of the implant.

Evaluation of dental implants at 5 years from the completion of implant-prosthetic treatment

HVM Bioflux, 2014

Introduction The implant-prosthetic treatment is an alternative to conventional prosthetic treatment such as fixed partial dentures, removable partial dentures, or even total dentures (Misch 1993; Bratu & Nussbaum 2006). Today, the rehabilitation of partial and/or total edentation by endosseous implants is a very widely used therapy. Endosseous implant-supported prosthetic restorations can be fixed or removable, the indication depending on the clinical situation of the patient. The placement of implant-prosthetic restorations in partially edentulous regions is a complex procedure, due to the need for a correct evaluation of the patient in order to elaborate an adequate therapeutic plan (Băciuţ 2007). The dentist should monitor and detect the associated pathology of the patient, the administered medication, the presence of periodontal pathology, of the smoking habit, as well as the patient’s ability to maintain the future restoration. The disregard of the doctor’s indications, of rig...

"Estimation and performance of dental implants survey study questionnaire"

Part of ISSN: 2319-7463, 2018

Dental implant is considered a new alternative method in restoring the esthetic and function of lost teeth in oral cavity, accurate work could be done in a scientific manner by right planning of the need and available material and methods with appropriate techniques, it is a collective efforts to do a stable, less failure and high success rate, a questioner done with collaboration of different graduation oral surgeons for gathering nearly a lot of experiences of them since many years. Material and methods :Fifty oral surgeons were collected their data and 20 points closed-ended questionnaire with single answers was prepared to gather data regarding to dentists "opinions about multiple dental implant system, radio graphical assessment, surgical procedure, prosthetic procedure, causes of success and failure of implant, contraindications of implant and preference of restore occlusal integrity after extraction. Results: This questionnaire was answered by 46 specialists, 3 general practitioners and 1 senior house officer worked in different centers and organizations, the number of implants that was worked by interviewed surgeons ranged from 2-2000 implants, number of failure of implants was ranged from 0-30 implants. All answers were significant except for type of gingival incision, preference of choice of type of restoration and success and failure causes as P-value significant in 0.05. Discussion: Careful selection of cases, proper treatment plan and follow-up of surgical and prosthetic protocols are the keys to success as it is highly sensitive technique, as an immediate implant reduced treatment time and surgical visits makes it a treatment of choice over the conventional approach of tooth extraction and waiting up to 4-6 months , primary stability of implants is commonly considered as a key factor for achieving successful osteo integration , most frequently used four parameters for assessing success of implant are implant level, peri-implant soft tissue, prosthesis, and patient"s subjective evaluation, also esthetics is very obligation for the inclusion of more factors in the success criteria assessment for implant prostheses.

Dental implants and single implant-supported restorations

Journal of the Irish Dental Association

Replacing missing teeth using dental implants is a good treatment option with a high degree of success. As the dental implantology field develops and the number of implants placed worldwide increases, several terms and techniques have been formulated. Therefore, a basic knowledge of dental implants is necessary for every dental student and dentist. The current article sheds light on how the dental implant integrates with its surrounding bone and what factors can affect this integration. The relationship between the implant and its surrounding soft tissue, different types of the dental implants, and the restorative components and procedures, are all reviewed.
