Full arch immediate occlusal loading using site specific implants: a clinical series of 10 patients (13 arches)

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Purpose

Osseointegration of dental endosseous implants has proven to be effective, predictable, and clinically successful. Unloaded healing protocols were originally used in treating edentulous patients. Full arch immediate occlusal loading protocols have been shown to be as effective as unloaded healing protocols. This paper reports on the results, benefits, and limitations of one specific immediate loading protocol using site specific implants for fresh extraction and healed extraction sites.

Materials and Methods

Ten consecutive patients [{13 arches} (age range: 64–81 years; average: 70.1) (4 males/6 females) were treated by the first 2 authors in private practice settings. Hopeless teeth were scheduled for extraction with immediate implant placement and immediate loading with insertion of full arch, screw-retained, acrylic resin interim prostheses within 24 hours. Implants were also placed into healed edentulous ridges. Insertion torque values for each implant were recorded. Interim prostheses were removed after at least 3 months of healing. Implants were reverse torque tested (35Ncm) and evaluated for macroscopic mobility. Definitive full arch prostheses were made. Patients were followed for 21- 48 months post implant surgery. Panoramic radiographs were taken immediately post implant placement and one year post operative.

Results

Thirteen arches were treated; 11 ultrawide diameter implants were placed into molar sockets, 26 inverted body-shift implants were placed into anterior sockets; 25 standard diameter, tapered implants were placed into edentulous sites; 2 zygomatic implants were placed in one patient. The total number of implants placed was 64 (4 pre-existing implants were also used and not included in this study). The minimum implant insertion torque value was 20Ncm. After 12–18 months of function (average 14 months), the implant and prosthetic survival rates were 100%. Eight patients were restored with definitive zirconia or acrylic resin hybrid fixed prostheses. Two patients were restored with bar titanium frameworks and removable overdenture prostheses. No prosthetic complications were reported for the definitive prostheses.

Conclusions

The results of this clinical series with site specific implants and immediate full arch occlusal loading in treating edentulous patients resulted in 100% clinical implant and prosthetic survival rates. According to this study, this protocol can be used with high levels of anticipated success.
