TREATMENT PRINCIPLES FOR RESTORING SINGLE-TOOTH POSTERIOR EDENTATION THROUGH IMPLANTPROSTHETIC TREATMENT
Abstract:
Obtaining continuity at the level of the dental arch, in case of a single-tooth posterior edentation, by means of implant-prosthetic restorative treatment that does not harm the adjacent teeth. Analyzing the results regarding the implantation aesthetics and functionality as compared to the classical approach techniques, of single-tooth posterior edentation. Material and method: The study was conducted on a group of 5 patients, with fixed implant supported prosthesis, in the posterior maxillary area, of both genders, between 20 and 50 years old. Results: The statistical data obtained let us argue that the arch restoration therapy through implant-prosthetic treatment of singletooth posterior edentation, is, indeed, the optimum treatment, in cases where the bone structure allows. Conclusions: In order for the implant-prosthetic treatment to be successful, it is essential to clearly identify the outcome prior to the project. There are many factors involved, which make the task of replacing a single tooth in the posterior area to be one of the most challenging restorations in dentistry.
