Assessment of Prosthetic Complications Associated with Dental Implants: An Observational Study
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Background: Clinical prosthodontics, during the past decade, has significantly improved and developed according to the advancements in the science and patient's demands and needs. Despite its high success rate, failure and complications are often associated with dental implant treatment due to a number of factors. Hence; we planned the present study to assess the prosthetic complications of dental implants. Materials & Methods: The present study included assessment of various prosthetic complications in patients undergoing dental implant procedures. A total of 200 patients scheduled to undergo dental implants for missing mandibular first molar were included in their study group. Dental implants were placed in all these patients by skilled oral implantologist. Follow-up was done in all the patients’ upto 2 years for assessing the incidence of occurrence of complications. Results: Prosthetic complications were present in 3 percent of the total patients included in the present study. Among these complications, most commonly encountered were fracture of veneering porcelain followed by abutment fracture, loosening of abutment, prosthetics framework fracture and screw fracture. Conclusion: Dental implant procedure is a technique sensitive procedure and is often associated with prosthetic complications. Therefore, special care should be taken while placing dental implants and while preparing its prosthetic part, so that prognosis of dental implants could be improved.
