| Abstract | ||
| Background: Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth. They are developed using a process called osseointegration, which helps the implants fuse with the jawbone. The anterior part of the lower jaw is of utmost importance in dental implantology, as it poses distinctive difficulties and factors that affect the long-term effectiveness. The Aim of the work: This study aims to report the implant survival rate of dental implants of partially dentate patients in the anterior mandible and the potential risk indicators for implant failure. Methods: We examined patients who had artificial teeth implanted in their lower front jaw. We recorded information about the patients, when the implant was placed, how it was loaded, and any problems that occurred during their last visit for check-up. We checked how likely an implant is to stay in place, how well it works, and any signs that it could fail. Results: We found that 30 out of 300 implants were not successful. This means that the overall success rate was 98%. Additionally, we looked into how certain factors may affect the survival of the implants. We looked at how different factors such as implant position and implant diameter affected the chances of an implant surviving using a statistical model. We discovered that the only important factor was the 2-stage procedure. Conclusion: The main result of this study was that 98% of the people who participated in the study were still alive after 10 years. Having surgery in two stages greatly increased the chances of the implant not working properly. Gender, age, size, length, type of device, location, timing of surgery, bone graft, and type of restoration have no impact on how well the treatment worked. We need to do more research with more people to find out the main factors that affect how well the treatment works. | ||
