Resumen
ORDONEZ SOUSA, B et al. Treatment of mandibular edentulous patients with guided surgery and immediate loading. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.6, pp.285-292. ISSN 2340-3152.
Introduction:
The aim of this study was to present the clinical outcomes of immediate loading of implants inserted by guided surgery in edentulous mandibular patients.
Patients and methods:
Mandibular edentulous patients were diagnosed by a cone beam tomography and treated with 8-10 Galimplant ® implants for rehabilitation with guided surgery and immediate loading. After flapless surgery, implants were loaded with an immediate acrylic temporary prosthesis. After a period of three months, a ceramic definitive full arch prosthesis were placed. The follow-up were at least of 48 months of functional loading.
Results and discussion:
24 patients were treated with 206 implants. Clinical outcomes showed a global success of 97.6% of implants after a mean follow-up of 62.4 months. Five implants were lost during the healing phase with provisional prosthesis. Mean marginal bone loss was 1.34 mm. Findings of the study showed clinical efficacy of immediate loading, primary stability and occlusal adjustment of immediate prosthesis are key determinants of success.
Conclusions:
This study indicate that treatment of mandibular edentulous patients by guided surgery and immediate loading constitute an implant option with a high rate of success.
