The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of the composite pressed on metal framework for full-arch implant-supported fixed prosthesis in order to eliminate the drawbacks related to the chipping of porcelain fused to metal or to zirconia restorations. Sixteen patients received 22 implant-supported screw-cement-retained complete-arch restorations, consisting of composite pressed restorations. All patients were follow-up visit up to 2 years on function (range 24 to 30 months, mean 28.3 months). The outcomes were implant and prosthetic survival rates and calculations of wear determination (mm). After two years of function, the wear values were 95.54�6.88 mm on pressed composite restoration. Using composite pressed restorations appears to be a predictable, esthetic and successful treatment option for method of full arch restorations over implants.

The author wants to evaluate the clinical advantages and limitations of the composite pressed on metal framework for full-arch implant-supported fixed prosthesis in comparing with dental ceramic restorations. A total of thirty-two edentulous arches were restored. All complications were recorded at each follow-up visit up to 1 year after insertion. No complications were reported on pressed composite restoration. Complications were found in the ceramic restorations like chipping or fracture of the ceramic veneer. The composite pressed restorations are a treatment option for full arch restorations over implants, showing a better success rate in the present study in comparing with ceramic restorations.

ABSTRACTObjectives: The use of osseointegrated implants as an endoestal anchorage device to provide support for dental prostheses is a reliable and widely accepted treatment modality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of non-submerged implants placed in the maxilla or in the mandible.Methods: A total of 146 International Team for Implantology (ITI) (Straumann AG, Waldenburg, Switzerland) implants were placed in 42 patients (20 women, 22 men, mean age 42). The cases were examined retrospectively in order to evaluate the clinical efficiency of non-submerged ITI implants and to determine the success rate of implant retained/supported prosthesis after a 5-year period. All implants were assessed clinically and radiographically on a yearly basis.Results: The 5-year cumulative success rates for maxillary and mandibular implants were 91.00% and 97.81%, respectively. The most common prosthetic complication was abutment accompanied by screw loosing (3.42%). Veneering material fracture was documented in only one patient.Conclusions: Within the limitations of the observation period and sample number, the present findings confirmed sufficient success and survival rates of ITI implants placed in mandible as well as implants placed in the maxilla after a 5-year period.

In this prospective clinical trial we observed the 2-year clinical performance of posterior tooth-supported multi-unit fixed dental prostheses (FDP) fabricated from zirconia with monolithic occlusal surfaces. Fifty multi-unit FDPs were inserted in 50 patients. After two years of clinical service, 43 restorations were reexamined as one patient had died and six patients were not available for recall. Two biological (root canal treatment: 12 and 14 months) and one technical (debonding: 12 months) complications occurred. According to the Kaplan–Meier analysis, the success rate was 93.7%, and the survival rate was 100%. The six patients who were not available for regular 2-year follow-up were examined after the official 2-year recall interval, and none of the FDPs presented complications or failures. Within the limitations of the current study, the use of multi-unit FDPs with monolithic occlusal surfaces fabricated from zirconia can be recommended for short-term use in the posterior area.

Introduction: Fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) are still preferred owing to theirdurability, esthetics, cost-effectiveness, adequate retention and lack of a surgical procedure.These restorations generally demonstrate longer life and durability in clinical service. Despitethe high survival rates, FDP complications are frequently encountered. Although severalstudies have reported on complications associated with FDPs, there is a lack of a standardand universal reporting system for FDP failures. Objectives: To evaluate FDP failures using aneasy classification scheme relevant to all conventional FDP failures. To assess the prevalenceof FDP failures based on this system. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: MargallaInstitute of Health Sciences (MIHS), Rawalpindi. Period: From 20th July 2014 to 20th January2015. Materials and Methods: Subjects reporting to the outpatient department with complaintsof failed crowns or bridges were included in the study. FDP failures were classified accordingto Manappallil’s classification. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 24. Descriptive statisticswere calculated. Results: Majority (31.6%) of the FDP failures were classified as Class I failureswhile the second most common FDP failures belonged to Class IV with a prevalence of 30.1%.Majority of the study subjects had been wearing FDPs for a period of 2 – 5 years while a few(2%) reported a history of use of FDP for more than 15 years. Conclusion: Class I failures arethe most prevalent failures in FPDs.
