Resumo

ObjectivesTo 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 methodsPatients 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. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regressions, clustered by patient, were used to analyze bone level differences as a function of different study covariates. Linear regressions were used to investigate the relationship between distal extension lengths and bone levels.ResultsForty-five patients with 138 implants were followed for up to 10 years after prosthesis insertion (mean 52.8; SD 20.5 months). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed overall survival rates of 96.5% for implants and of 97.8% for prostheses. The 10-year success rate for prostheses was 90.8%. Extra-short implants survived at similar rates to short and standard implants. Marginal bone levels surrounding implants remained stable over time, even showing slight bone gain on average (mean + 0.1 mm/year; SD +/- 0.5 mm/year) Acrylic denture teeth, overdentures on the opposing arch, and implant placement in the posterior maxilla were correlated with bone gain. Screw retention, opposed to telescopic retention, was correlated with bone loss. Longer distal extensions were correlated with bone gain on the implants closest to the distal extensions.ConclusionsFiber-reinforced composite fixed prostheses supported by only 3 implants, most of which were extra-short, presented high survival rates with stable bone levels.
