Dealing with Challenges of Implant Failure and Complications: Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medicine surgery and Radiology - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: The implant-retained overdenture has been advocated as an effective method of rehabilitating the edentulous patient that offers significant benefits over conventional prosthesis. It is important to understand the etiological factors responsible in causing failures and complications during the various clinical procedures associated with the use of this treatment modality. This knowledge aids treatment planning, communicating with the patient, informed consent, and posttreatment care of the implants and prostheses. Case report: This paper outlines a clinical case demonstrating common complications encountered in implant retained overdentures and suggests how these complications can be managed. Conclusion: Failure of implant has a multifactorial dimension. Often many factors come together to cause the ultimate failure of the implant.
