Article Synopsis
- Dental implants, specifically immediate implant placement with immediate loaded full-arch prostheses (IPILFFDP), offer efficient treatment options for patients without teeth, but their impact on temporomandibular disorder (TMD) risk is unclear.
- A study involving 12 participants assessed changes in their temporomandibular joint (TMJ) using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) before and after IPILFFDP.
- Results indicated no significant pre- and post-treatment differences in joint structure, but there was an increase in posterior joint space and vertical dimension, suggesting IPILFFDP can help maintain muscle memory and jaw position for those without TMJ issues.
