Prosthetic Complications of Dental Implants

Abstract

Background: The aim of the current research was to evaluate the prosthetic challenges related to dental implants.

Material and methods: This analysis included a cohort of 100 individuals who had received implant treatment. An investigation of prosthetic issues related to implants was carried out in the patients indicated earlier.

Results: The most prevalent complication observed in prosthetic implants was the loosening of the overdenture retentive mechanism, accounting for 53% of cases. This was followed by implant loss in irradiated maxillae (14%), complications related to haemorrhage (12%), fracture of resin veneer with fixed partial dentures (10%), implant loss with maxillary overdentures (09%), and the need for relining of overdentures (02%).

Conclusion: The study's results revealed that the most common issue identified with prosthetic implants was the loosening of the overdenture retentive mechanism, which accounted for around 53% of the reported instances.
