Analysis of Satisfaction Levels in Completely Edentulous Patients Treated with Different Configurations of Implant Supported Rosthesis

Conclusion: It was found that treatment design of that implant supported fixed prosthesis on maxilla and implant overdenture on mandible provided comparable level of satisfaction with maxillomandibular fixed prosthesis for edentulous patients. Implant supported fixed prosthesis for maxilla and implant supported overdenture for mandible served as a practical alternative to satisfy patients especially in patients with mandibular atrophy who would demand extensive surgeries for maxillomandibular fixed prosthesis. Satisfaction level of implant supported overdenture was not superior to conventional prosthesis for maxilla. Previous removable prosthesis experience may influence social comfort of patients.PMID:38607355 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10734
