ABSTRACT
Implant-supported fixed prostheses are a highly successful treatment option for replacing missing teeth, offering improved esthetics, function, and patient satisfaction. Design considerations play a crucial role in achieving optimal outcomes. Implant distribution and angulation should be carefully planned to ensure balanced load distribution and biomechanical stability. Occlusal considerations are vital to minimize mechanical complications and implant overloading, with proper adjustments and occlusal schemes implemented. The emergence profile should replicate natural tooth contours for esthetic integration and ease of oral hygiene maintenance. Material selection is essential, considering factors such as occlusal loading, esthetic requirements, and patient-specific considerations. Biomechanical analysis helps identify stress distribution patterns and optimize prosthesis design for long-term success. Patient satisfaction is high, with improved chewing ability, speech, and overall quality of life reported. Long-term success rates exceed 90%, influenced by implant survival, peri-implant health, maintenance of prosthesis integrity, and patient satisfaction. Thorough patient assessment, treatment planning, precise surgical and prosthetic execution, and comprehensive follow-up care are crucial for favorable outcomes. Implant-supported fixed prostheses provide functional and esthetic restorations, enhancing oral health and overall well-being.
ABSTRACT
Objetivo: a objetivo desta revisão sistemática foi avaliar estudos clínicos e as taxas de sucesso e complicações protéticas das próteses fixas totais cerâmicas implantossuportadas em pacientes totalmente desdentados, após um período de acompanhamento mínimo de 5 anos. Material e métodos: a pesquisa bibliográfica foi realizada usando as bases de dados eletrônicas Medline/PubMed, entre 1980 a 2015, para estudos clínicos em língua inglesa relatando as complicações protéticas e implantares. Os termos de pesquisa que foram utilizados, isoladamente ou em combinação foram implant-supported restoration, prosthodontic complications, technical complications, mechanical complications, dental implants, screw complications, edentulous arch, metal framework fracture, restoration, acrylic veneer fracture, ceramic veneer fracture, biologic complications e edentulous arch. Resultados: dos 181 artigos recuperados, apenas três estudos cumpriram os critérios de inclusão para esta revisão, sendo três estudos prospectivos. As complicações biológicas e técnicas em implantes e próteses foram identificadas e registradas, incluindo: fraturas dos materiais de suporte da estrutura/recobrimento, soltura do parafuso da prótese e/ou parafuso do pilar, fratura do parafuso protético e/ou parafuso do pilar, deficiências estéticas e desgaste do material. Conclusão: dentro dos limites desta revisão sistemática, os estudos sobre materiais cerâmicos com cinco anos ou mais de acompanhamento são escassos ou inexistentes sugerindo cautela na utilização desse tipo de restauração implantossuportada.
Objective: the objective of this systematic review was to access the clinical studies and as success rates and prosthetic complications of total fi xed ceramic prostheses implanted in fully edentulous patients after a minimum follow-up period of 5 years. Material and methods: a literature search was conducted using Medline/PubMed electronic databases from 1980 to 2015 for English-language clinical studies reporting as prosthetic and implant complications. "Technical complications", "mechanical complications", "dental implants", "screw complications", "edentulous arch", "technical complications", "technical complications". "Fracture of metal structure", "restoration", "acrylic veneer fracture", "ceramic veneer fracture", "biological complications" and "edentulous arch". Results: from the 181 articles retrieved, only 3 studies fullfi lled the inclusion criteria for this review, being prospective studies. Such biological and technical complications in implants and prostheses were identifi ed and recorded, including: structure/veneering material fractures, prosthetic screw loosening and/or abutment screw, prosthetic and/or abutment screw fracture, defi cient esthetics, and material wear. Conclusion: within the limits of this systematic review, studies on ceramic materials with 5 years of follow-up are scarce or non-existent suggesting caution in the use of this type of implant-supported restoration.
