A Comparative Radiographic Evaluation of Crestal Bone Resorption in Single Implant versus Two Implant Retained Mandibular Overdentures – A Randomised Controlled Trial

Single Versus Two Dental Implant Retained Mandibular Overdenture: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: The consensus is that the standard treatment of choice for the edentulous mandible should be a two implant retained mandibular overdenture. Some clinicians have tried single median implant to retain the mandibular overdenture, however, there is lack of scientific information with single implant retained mandibular overdenture. Therefore the purpose of the current randomized clinical...

Denture satisfaction in a comparative study of implant-retained mandibular overdentures: a randomized clinical trial.

This study compared the experiences with surgical procedures and treatment effects of a mainly implant-supported overdenture retained by a transmandibular implant with those of an implant tissue-supported overdenture retained by two cylindrical endosseous implants. Treatment had been assigned according to a balanced allocation method to 95 patients, including a control group who received only c...

Radiographic evaluation of posterior alveolar ridge resorption in implant-retained mandibular overdentures using three different bar modalities

A Comparative Evaluation of Crestal Bone Levels in Mandibular Implant-Retained Overdentures using Delayed and Immediate Loading Protocols: An in vivo Study

Aim: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the changes in peri-implant bone quality, crestal bone level and the implant stability (periotest) for mandibular implant retained overdentures with ball attachments using delayed and immediate loading protocols. Materials and methods: Two Alpha-Bio dental implants were placed in the anterior part of the mandible in ten completely edentulous patient...

Radiographic Comparison of Crestal Bone Loss Around Two Implant Systems with Different Surface Roughness: A Retrospective Study

Background and Aim: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the effects of surface roughness and implant body design on the amount of crestal bone loss around implant. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, dental records of 87 patients who received 139 implants were evaluated. The ITI group received 63 implants with moderate roughness, while the DIO group received 76 implan...
