Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to retrospectively evaluate implant survival rates in patients treated with the All‐on‐Four™ protocol according edentulous jaws, gender, and orientation (tilted vs. axial). Materials Methods All Brånemark System implants placed following a single private practice were separated into multiple classifications (maxilla mandible; male female; tilted axial) by retrospective patient chart review. Inclusion criteria consisted any from clinical...

Immediate loading of dental implants is increasingly gaining recognition as a viable option for both patient and clinician.The aim this study was to evaluate the results 55 patients in clinical investigation immediate functional Brånemark System (Nobel Biocare USA, Yorba Linda, CA) edentulous maxillas. Its further purpose suggest reliable evidence-based protocol implant full-arch prostheses maxilla.A total 552 were placed extraction or healed sites; mean number 10 per patient. The healthy...

To retrospectively analyze the survival rate of endosseous dental implants placed in edentulous or partially mandible over a long-term follow-up period 10 years more.The charts patients who underwent mandibular implant placement at private prosthodontics practice and received care for more were included this study. Implants examined according to following study variables: patient sex, age, degree edentulism (fully vs edentulous), location, time loading (delayed immediate), size type, bone...

This report describes a protocol that uses computer technology and medical imaging to virtually place anterior posterior dental implants construct precise surgical template prosthesis, which is connected at the time of implant placement. procedure drastically reduces patient office time, treatment degree post-treatment recovery. Patients with an edentulous arch or partially area had denture radiopaque markers constructed for computed tomography (CT) scans appropriate jaw. The CT images,...

Implants placed into the pterygomaxillary region allow for increased posterior support and a full complement of teeth without need distal cantilevers. With advancements in research technology, implant delivery has evolved from traditional two-stage procedure to immediate loading freehand guided surgical template protocols. The purpose this retrospective study is determine if there significant difference survival rates between these protocols.All implants single private practice September...

Purpose: Implants that engage the cortical bone of pterygomaxillary region help restore dentition to posterior maxilla. However, proper implant length is required. The purpose this study was determine if there a statistically significant difference in survival rates between different sized implants placed region. Materials and Methods: All Brånemark System 4.0-mm-diameter delivered into single private practice were separated 7- 13-mm 15- 18-mm groups by retrospective patient chart review....

Acrylic resin teeth on fixed implant prostheses are subject to time-dependent wear. The purpose of this retrospective analysis is evaluate and describe the management such wear in context selected variables--patient gender age, dental arch location, opposing dentition. clinical laboratory process replace worn defined as a retread.A database review from single private prosthodontic practice was carried out all patients who had undergone retread procedure. patient pool included 205 arches 194...

Purpose: The aim of this study is to demonstrate the accuracy and clinical precision a guided surgery protocol by using traditional Brånemark System abutments in conjunction with prefabricated all-acrylic provisional prosthesis that immediately installed after implant placement. Materials: All presurgical methods treatment follow standard NobelGuide exception laboratory phase. Once master cast retroengineered from surgical template, were secured onto replicas (master cast) an was constructed...

The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the viability immediately provisionalized single-tooth implants.One hundred forty patients (86 female, 54 male) with a mean age at implant placement 45 years (range, 15-88 years) needing replacement, were treated between July 1999 and December 2004. Single-tooth implants placed day surgery. All manufactured by Nobel Biocare (Yorba Linda, CA) had multiple diameters configurations. majority used in oxidized titanium surfaces. contours...

This patient report describes the treatment of a 45-year-old Caucasian woman with cleidocranial dysplasia who had significant dental problems that greatly affected her quality life. The orthodontic in earlier years along surgical removal supernumerary teeth. Using implants, maxillary and mandibular arches were restored fixed screw-retained prostheses. Eight implants six placed maxilla mandible, respectively. Both immediately loaded following Teeth Day™ protocol using an all-acrylic resin...
