ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The study evaluated 1-piece implants in daily clinical situations. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
One-piece implants restoring both single teeth and partially edentulous sites were included. A single-stage procedure was used with immediate provisionalization within 24 hours after surgery. The definitive prosthesis was delivered within 6 months of implant insertion.RESULTS:
One hundred fifteen implants have been placed in 84 patients at 4 centers. Two implants failed resulting in a cumulative survival rate of 98.3%. Normal periimplant mucosa and no visible plaque were observed in most of the implants. The soft tissue papilla scores improved considerably over time P < 0.001. Patient assessment improved significantly from implant insertion to the 3-year visit, P < 0.001. The mean bone level at implant insertion, 6-month, and 1-, 2-, and 3-year visits was 0.42, -0.58, -0.69, -0.80, and -0.66 mm, respectively. The mean change in bone level from implant insertion to 6 months and 1, 2, and 3 years was reported as -1.02, -1.12, -1.26, and -1.07 mm, respectively.CONCLUSIONS:
The results indicate that this implant has the ability to preserve both hard and soft tissues' architecture.
