Implants outcome inserted in different sites

Abstract

Oral rehabilitation by means dental implants has high standards of success. Recently, a new type of two-pieces spiral implants has been introduced in the market. Since few reports focus of the efficacy of this medical device as a reliable tool for oral rehabilitation, here a retrospective study is reported. In the period June-December 2017 one hundred and two spiral fixtures were inserted, half in females and 51 in males. The median age was 56 ± 8 (min-max 36-73 years). Forty-eight implants were inserted in upper jawbone and 54 in mandible. Two implants were lost and thus survival rate (SVR) is 99.9%. Then peri-implant bone resorption was used to investigate the clinical success (success rate, SCR) over time. No implants have a crestal bone resorption greater than 1.5 mm in the first year follow up. No studied variable has an effect on clinical outcome. In conclusion the studied implants have high SCR and SVR so that they are good tools for oral rehabilitation.
