Rehabilitation of full-arch edentulism with fixed or removable dentures retained by root-form dental implants: A systematic review of outcomes and outcome measures used in clinical research in the last 10 years.

Scientific rationale for study: Consistent data on the outcomes of treatments for full-arch edentulism are fundamental for establishing high-quality clinical practices with effective impact on patients' lives. Principal findings: Despite the increasing number of studies assessing the rehabilitation of full-arch edentulism with implant-supported prostheses, there has been little adherence to reporting guidelines (EQUATOR network), resulting in high variability regarding the type of outcomes reported. The clinical performance of these restorations has been mostly evaluated using clinician-oriented and patient-reported outcomes. Assessment methods are frequently not described and vary across studies. Practical implications: It would be valuable to have a set of core outcome variables and standardized methods of measurement for future studies.
