Title: Prosthetic Considerations in Full Mouth Rehabilitation with Implants.

Abstracts:

Implants have changed prosthodontics more than any other innovation in dentistry. Implant prosthodontics means restoring function, aesthetics, and providing technology; biology and technology are combined. Thus, implants are part of the final prosthetic treatment which encompasses functional, aesthetic and social rehabilitation. The most common implant complications, whether associated with the implant or prosthetic restoration, occur as a result of biomechanical stress. These complications include early implant failure, fracture of the prosthesis, abutment or prosthetic screw loosening, implant crestal bone loss, and problems with overdenture attachments.

Treatment planning should incorporate methods to reduce stress and minimize its initial and long-term effects. The treatment plan is altered when forces are greater or bone is less dense than usual to minimize the negative impact of stress on the implant, bone, and restoration.

The treatment plan is altered when forces are greater or bone is less dense than usual to minimize the negative impact of stress on the implant, bone, and restoration. Several parameters under the clinician’s control can improve the transosteal environment relative to managing stress on the implant-restoration complex. The goal is to decrease the amount of force, or increase the implant-bone surface area, to decrease the chance of implant-restoration complications.

Implant dentistry continues to struggle with what are the appropriate occlusal concepts for implant-supported restorations. The biological and mechanical consequences of the loading environment lead to establishing and maintaining an implant interface in a wide variety of bone quality and quantity, implant and prosthesis designs. To the restorative dentist, the role of occlusion is more focused on extending the service life of the restoration and the connecting abutments than protecting the osseous integration of the implants.
