Summary
Transdental implants offer a favorable survival rate for tooth stabilization when used for root fractures, chronic inflammation, or periodontal disease. Proper surgical technique and patient selection are key to successful outcomes with these dental implants.
Area of Science:
- Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
- Dental Implantology
Background:
- Transdental implantation stabilizes teeth in the jawbone.
- Indications include root fractures, periapical inflammation, and periodontal disease.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the survival rate of transdental implants.
- To assess the long-term efficacy of this tooth stabilization procedure.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of 490 two-component transdental implants inserted over 20 years.
- Review of clinical data from the Clinic for Maxillofacial Surgery.
Main Results:
- A 9% failure rate (43 implants) was observed.
- The study highlights a favorable survival rate based on clinical experience.
Conclusions:
- Transdental implants demonstrate a favorable survival rate.
- Proper indications and meticulous surgical technique are crucial for success.
