A 5-year prospective clinical study of Neobiotech implants for partially edentulous patients / 대한치과보철학회지

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The aim of the present prospective clinical study was to assess the cumulative survival rate (CSR) of Neobiotech implants restored with fixed partial prosthesis in relation to its potential risk factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty six partially edentulous patients received Neobiotech implants and implant supported fixed partial prosthesis at Korea University Guro Hospital Dental Center from November 2009 until November 2011. The observation period was set from the implant placement and the last clinical visit until December 2015. Implant survival rate was determined using the Kaplan-Meier method. The relationship between implant survival rate and the potential risk factors were analysed using the multi Cox proportional analysis (P.05). CONCLUSION: Neobiotech implants showed predictable results with a 5 year cumulative survival rate of 97.1%.
