ABSTRACT
This study aimed to identify the ideal inter-implant distance for optimum outcome on immediately loaded implant supported prosthesis. Hence this study was taken up to analyze the effect of varying inter-implant distance on fracture resistance of implant supported provisional FDP. A total of 24 bis-acrylate composite resin samples were prepared. Inter- implant distance was present in the metal die for placement of dummy implants at distances of 14 mm, 21 mm & 30 mm respectively. Wax-up for 3 unit, 4 unit & 5 unit implant supported provisional restoration were made. Silicone molds were used for making multiple interim prostheses using bis-acrylate composite material. All samples were subjected to fracture test in the universal testing machine with a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. All samples were loaded with gradual force starting from 100 N till it fractured. The Load was applied at the center of prosthesis. Data was analyzed by one way ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc test. Mean Fracture resistance of 3 unit provisional FDP at 14 mm of inter-implant distance showed 1342.61 ± 179.15 N. Mean Fracture resistance of 4 unit provisional FDP at 21 mm of inter-implant distance showed 1420.44 ± 170.37 N. Mean Fracture resistance of 5 unit provisional FDP at 30 mm of inter-implant distance showed 791.61 ± 203.59 N. Both 14mm and 21mm of inter implant distance are suitable span lengths to be considered for the optimum outcome during immediately loading with implant supported provisional restorations. Limitations of the study was force application was static in nature and not dynamic and the arch form was not "U" shaped but longitudinal using Bis-Acrly material only with no cantilever. Future studies can be done to evaluate the fracture resistance of bis- acrylate material considering biomechanics and arch form of natural dentition. Distal cantilever should be considered along with different material for fabricating provisional restoration.
