SHORT LENGTH VERSUS CONVENTIONAL IMPLANTS IN REHABILITATION OF COMPLETELY EDENTULOUS MANDIBLE
AHMED MOHAMED ABDEL AZIEM LASHEEN;
Abstract
The study was carried out to compare radiographically between marginal bone height changes around short and conventional implants in edentulous patients rehabilitated with implant retained mandibular complete overdentures.
Fourteen completely edentulous male patients were selected from those attended the out-patient clinic of Removable Prosthodontics Department, Faculty of Dentistry-Ain Shams University to participate in the study.
Patients were precisely selected and thoroughly examined in an attempt to reduce human variables and eliminate any factor that might adversely affect the results of this study.
Selected patients were equally divided into two groups:
Group (I): Patients received conventional complete maxillary dentures opposed by mandibular overdentures supported and retained by two conventional implants of 4mm diameter and 12mm length placed in the lateral-canine regions.
Group (II): Patients received conventional complete maxillary dentures opposed by mandibular overdentures supported and retained by two short implants of 4mm diameter and 8mm length placed in the lateral-canine regions.
