Prefabricated shouldered abutments enable successful restoration of molar crowns on implants.

Purpose: This retrospective study evaluated the effect of selected clinical and patient factors on survival, success, and peri-implant bone level changes of locking taper implants supporting molar crowns on Bicon's prefabricated shouldered abutments.

Methods: A total of 234 patients, who received 274 single molar crowns supported by locking taper implants were included in this retrospective study. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to assess overall implant survival, prostheses survival, and success.

Fiber-reinforced composite full-arch prosthetic reconstructions supported by three standard, short or extra-short implants: a two-center retrospective study.

Objectives: To evaluate the survival of implants and prostheses, and marginal bone level of fiber-reinforced composite implant supported fixed complete prostheses supported by 3 implants.

Materials And Methods: Patients with fiber-reinforced composite fixed prostheses supported by 3 standard-length, short or extra-short implants were included in this retrospective cohort study. Kaplan-Meier survival was computed for implants and prostheses.

Fiber-reinforced composite partial fixed dental prostheses supported by short or extra-short implants: A 10 year retrospective study.

Introduction: This study evaluated the 10-year survival and success of partial fixed dental prostheses (P-FDPs) fabricated with a milled fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) framework, supported by short or extra-short implants.

Methods: Patients restored with FRC P-FDPs supported by short or extra-short implants were included in this retrospective study. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate the survival and success rates of the prostheses.

Severely Atrophic Mandibles Restored With Fiber-Reinforced Composite Prostheses Supported by 5.0-mm Ultra-Short Implants Present High Survival Rates Up To Eight Years.

Purpose: Encouraging results have been reported for ultrashort single implants; however, long-term investigations are warranted for full-arch reconstructions. This study evaluated marginal bone loss, implant, and reconstruction survival of fiber-reinforced composite full-arch prostheses supported by 4 ultrashort implants.

Methods: Patients with severely atrophic mandibles (Cawood and Howell class V and class VI) were included in this cohort study.
