Abstract
Summary :
This study was performed to evaluate supporting
structures clinically around miniimplants in lower miniimplant
supported overdentures in controlled diabetic patients for one
year from loading.
Fourteen completely edentulous patients were selected
from the out-patient clinic, Prosthodontic Department, Faculty
of Dentistry Ain-Shams University. Glycocylated haemoglobin
test was made for each patient and accordingly the patients
were grouped into:
Group A: healthy non diabetic patients with glycated
haemoglobin (HbA1c) less than 6% .
Group B: seven controlled diabetic patients with glycated
haemoglobin (HbA1c) more than 6.3% and less than 7%.
Complete upper and lower dentures were constructed and
delivered to all patients. For each patient, diagnostic cone
beam computed tomography CBCTof mandibular arch was
taken using the lower denture as radiographic stent by adapting
gutta percia to the center of the canines of the denture. The
diameter and the length of miniimplants were selected
according to bone dimensions in CBCT, miniimplants of 2.5
mm diameter and 12 mm length, 4 mini implants were
completely seated in interforaminal region. The denture was
modified to fit over miniimplants, implant housings were
picked_up in the fitting surface of the denture. Radiographic
evaluation of the miniimplants were carried out by digital
image analysis of the digital panorama in the different follow
up periods (3, 6, and 12 months). Data obtained were collected,
tabulated and statistically analyzed.
