Abstract

Background: Dental implants have been essential to the therapy of patients who are partially edentulous.

Aim: Clinical evaluation of the long-term survival and success rates of different types of implant-supported prostheses.

Materials and methods: Patients who had a healthy edentulous ridge of three missing teeth in the posterior jaw in which two or three dental implants were placed having any of three prostheses, namely, three-unit fixed dental prostheses (FPD) on two implants, three splinted crowns on three implants, and three splinted crowns on three implants were included.

Results: The survival rate in all patients with dental implants having different types of prostheses was 94.9%. The survival rate in FPD, three splinted crowns, and three nonsplinted crowns was 100, 88.5, and 93.6% respectively.

Conclusion: FPD loaded on two dental implants was found to have a greater long-term survival rate and success rate with a lower frequency of peri-implantitis and prosthodontic complications.

Keywords: Dental implants; peri-implantitis; prosthesis.
