- PURPOSE: This preliminary international survey compared provision of implant-retained overdentures to fixed implant-supported prostheses for edentulous mandibles. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Questionnaires based on a 2001 Swedish study were sent to prosthodontists and specialist clinics in nine additional countries. RESULTS: Response rate varied from 53% to 100% in 10 national surveys and should allow careful comparison of results. The relationship between implant overdentures and fixed implant-supported prostheses in treatment of edentulous mandibles varied much; in Sweden, the proportion of overdentures was 12%, whereas it was 93% in The Netherlands. In all countries, the most common reason for choice of the overdenture was reduced cost. In all but two countries, the majority of respondents thought that patients with implant overdentures were equally or more satisfied with overdentures as those with fixed implant-supported prostheses. CONCLUSION: There were great differences among the 10 countries in choice of implant treatment of the edentulous mandible. The relative proportion of mandibular overdentures to fixed prostheses was low in Sweden and Greece and varied from one to two thirds in the other countries, except The Netherlands.

- One hundred seven Brånemark implants were placed in 92 patients participating in an international multicenter trial on single-implant restorations at seven centers. The patients were followed for 5 years in a prospective study focusing on implant success and crown function. Plaque and gingival indexes, as well as probing depths, were recorded around teeth and implants. The marginal bone level at implants was determined from intraoral radiographs. Only three implants (2.8%) had been lost at the final annual checkup. During the follow-up period, a total of 17 patients dropped out or were excluded because of nonconformity with the protocol. Based on the remaining patients, a total of 86 implants were clinically and radiographically evaluated at the 5-year follow-up period, resulting in a cumulative success rate of 96.6% (71 implants) in the maxillae and 100% (15 implants) in the mandibles. Plaque and gingival indexes showed a similar pattern of good health around both natural teeth and titanium abutments. The marginal bone loss during the 5-year period did not exceed 1 mm as a mean for all implants analyzed. The most frequent complication recorded during the follow-up was loosening of the abutment fixation screw. The outcome of this study indicated that safe and highly predictable results can be obtained for 5 years when Brånemark implants are used to support single-tooth restorations.

- One hundred seven dental implants were inserted to support single tooth restorations in 92 patients participating in a prospective multicenter investigation. Only three implants (2.8%) were lost after 1 year of clinical function. Most of the remaining restorations were esthetically successful by using modified components. The gingival condition was healthy around the single crowns and coincided well with the clinical situation around the permanent teeth. The most obvious problem experienced during the first year was related to loose abutment screws. Twenty-six percent of the screws retaining crowns were retightened during the observation period, but the frequency of loose screws had a tendency to decrease as the study progressed.
