- The purpose of this study was to investigate restorative and postinsertion problems in patients provided with single implant supported restorations. Fifty consecutive single implant patients were reviewed over a period of 3 years following placement of artificial crowns. One (1.4%) of the 70 inserted implants was lost during the follow-up period, which gives a cumulative success rate of 98.5%. The most frequent complication was loosening of the single tooth abutment screw. This problem was associated with fistulas during the first year of clinical service. A more severe complication was that three adjacent teeth had to be endodontically treated due to accidental devitalization from surgical trauma during implant insertion. The mean marginal bone level adjacent to the implants was reduced 0.5 mm from crown insertion to the third annual review.

- A group of 48 patients, all more than 80 years old (mean age 82.7 years) at first implant surgery, who received a total of 254 implants, were followed in one clinical center. Of the exposed implants, 6 of 238 (2.5%) were found to be loose at second-stage surgery, and another 3 implants were lost during the follow-up period. Most patients had minimal postplacement problems, similar to what has been observed in younger patients. However, some patients (10%) experienced obvious problems with general adaptation and muscle control, which has not been observed in younger patients.

- Sixty-seven partially edentulous patients with Applegate-Kennedy Class I or II situations were consecutively treated with freestanding implant-supported prostheses and followed up for 5 years. A total of 70 jaws were provided with 94 prostheses supported by 259 implants. During the report period, seven patients were lost to follow-up. Seven implants were found to be loose and were subsequently removed, which did not influence prosthesis stability. Thus, the overall cumulative survival rate was 97.2% and 100% for implants and prostheses, respectively. On average, 0.8 mm of marginal bone was lost around implants in maxillae, as compared to 0.6 mm in mandibles. The major clinical problem was related to fatigue fractures of the resin veneer material. Loose gold alloy screws were also observed.
