Book Mandibular Implant Prostheses

Download or read book Mandibular Implant Prostheses written by Elham Emami and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by leaders in the field, this comprehensive step-by-step guide combines up-to-date clinical and research information that will help clinicians to advance their theoretical and clinical knowledge on mandibular implant overdentures. Furthermore, it describes treatment considerations for geriatric populations, covering all relevant aspects from physiology to treatment planning and patient management in the surgical and prosthetic phases. The phenomenon of aging is a global concern for policy makers, providers, and the public. Dentists worry especially about the burden their aging patients face to maintain their oral health-related quality of life and well-being. Furthermore, older patients require health care technologies that will enable them to maintain their oral health. Over the past few decades, mandibular implant-assisted complete prostheses have attracted the attention of both patients and clinicians, as research on the biological, functional, esthetic, and psychosocial benefits has increased. This book will be of value for all with an interest in the subject..

Download or read book Oral Health Care written by Mandeep Virdi and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geriatric dentistry, or gerodontics, is the branch of dental care dealing with older adults involving the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of problems associated with normal aging and age-related diseases as part of an interdisciplinary team with other healthcare professionals. Prosthodontics is the dental specialty pertaining to the diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation, and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of patients with clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissues using biocompatible materials. Periodontology, or Periodontics, is the specialty of oral healthcare that concerns supporting structures of teeth, diseases, and conditions that affect them. The supporting tissues are known as the periodontium, which includes the gingiva (gums), alveolar bone, cementum, and the periodontal ligament. Oral biology deals with the microbiota and their interaction within the oral region. Research in oral health and systemic conditions concerns the effect of various systemic conditions on the oral cavity and conversely helps to diagnose various systemic conditions.

Book Within subject Comparison of Two  Versus Three implant assisted Mandibular Overdenture

Download or read book Within subject Comparison of Two Versus Three implant assisted Mandibular Overdenture written by Aminah Alesawy and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT Objectives: This study aims to assess the impact of an additional midline implant to support an existing mandibular two-implant overdenture, on patient-based outcomes (patients' satisfaction and expectations). Methods: This study was nested within a previous clinical trial conducted at the Université de Montréal. Seventeen edentulous individuals (mean age: 61.9 ± 6.6 years) received three threaded implants in the interforaminal mandibular area and a mandibular overdenture using two Locator® attachments. The midline implant was left unloaded over a two-year period. At the two-year follow-up, using a standard protocol, the third implant received a Locator® attachment and the overdenture was converted to a three-implant-assisted overdenture. The clinical and perceived anterior-posterior movements of mandibular prostheses were measured before and after the conversion. Patients' expectation and satisfaction in regard to mandibular prosthesis as well as their willingness to pay the cost for the conversion were evaluated by using validated self-administered questionnaires. Data collection was conducted at baseline and after six weeks of wearing the converted mandibular prosthesis. Socio-demographic data were also collected. Descriptive statistics and non-paramteric tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: Data analysis revealed a statistically significant decrease in the anterior-posterior movement (p = 0.005) of overdenture as evaluated by clinicians. Study participants reported an increase in perceived stability of the overdenture (p = 0.005), and in their ability to speak (p = 0.011) and to chew hard food (p = 0.012). The addition of a third implant met the expectations of 94% of patients in regard to lower denture stability, 100% for retention, and 82.4% for comfort. The 3-implant-assisted mandibular overdenture increased patients' general satisfaction over a short period of time, but this improvement was not statistically significant. About 80% of patients would recommend this type of prosthesis to their peers but only 47% of them would agree to pay a large increase in the cost of treatment compared to 2-implant overdenture. Conclusions: The addition of a midline third implant to an existing 2-mandibular-implant overdenture will lead to better patient-based outcomes. However, the additional cost of the treatment may influence patient preferences.
