Within the limitations of this study, restoration of implants by unreinforced hybrid prostheses at the time of placement provided satisfactory results. The outcome was stable at 3 years post restoration. Mandibular rehabilitation by functional loading of the implants on the day of the insertion requires the comprehension and proper application of surgical and restorative principles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
