Dental implant restorations using the Brånemark system showed a high success rate over a 78-month period. Most complications were minor soft tissue issues, with few patients discontinuing prosthesis use.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Biomaterials Science

Background:

  • Dental implants have revolutionized tooth replacement.
  • The Brånemark system is a well-established implant technology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the long-term outcomes and complication rates of Brånemark system implants.
  • To assess the success of implant-supported prostheses in a large patient cohort.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 353 patients receiving 1,778 Brånemark system implants.
  • Data collected over a 78-month period (1983-1990) at the Mayo Clinic.
  • Categorization and analysis of implant and prosthesis complications.

Main Results:

  • A total of 1,778 implants were placed in 407 jaws across 353 patients.

  • The most frequent complications were soft tissue related.
  • 152 patients experienced no complications, and 37 had only one occurrence.
  • Prosthesis use was permanently discontinued in only 4 patients.

    • Conclusions:

    • Brånemark system implants demonstrate a favorable long-term outcome with manageable complication rates.
    • Soft tissue complications are the most common but generally treatable.
    • High patient satisfaction and prosthesis retention rates were observed.
