“…Our results are comparable to what other studies have shown. Many studies have shown that IODs, when compared to a removable complete denture, can offer notable improvements in patients' bite force [40], quality of life [41], and masticatory performance [42]. Our reports, given the results obtained both after one months and after one year, similarly indicate a clear improvement in all aspects investigated by the OHIP-14.…”

The Effects of a Mandibular Overdenture on Edentulous Patients’ Quality of Life: A Clinical Study

Edentulous patients’ quality of life can be greatly diminished by the use of a badly fitting removable prosthesis, as many aspects of social life become notably impaired. The object of this study was to evaluate if treating these patients with a two implants mandibular overdenture could improve their quality of life as measured with the Italian version of the OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile). Edentulous patients, in good clinical condition, were selected. Two implants were placed following the recommended guidelines and three months after new mandibular dentures were manufactured, implants were uncovered and connected to the prosthesis using LOCATOR abutments. OHIP-14 was measured at baseline, one month after delivery and one year after delivery. An improvement was observed even after one month (with a mean reduction of 17 points in OHIP) and that improvement appeared to be stable at the one-year follow-up. Mandibular overdentures can improve a patient’s quality of life when compared to a tissue-supported removable complete denture, as long as the patient is subjected to an appropriate follow-up as the retentive rings of the attachment can deteriorate even after two years and lose a great deal of retentive capabilities.

“…The loading forces of 50, 100, and 150 N, respectively, were chosen based on reports of the minimum and maximum biting forces in individuals with conventional complete dentures, implant-supported ODs, and natural teeth [ 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 ]. The forces used represent the average forces in subjects wearing implant ODs.…”

Clinical indications for the newly released Ti-Zr (Roxolid®) alloy mini-implants (MDIs) aimed for overdenture (OD) retention in subjects with narrow alveolar ridges are not fully defined. The aim of this study was to analyze peri-implant and posterior edentulous area microstrains utilizing models of the mandible mimicking a “real” mouth situation with two (splinted with a bar or as single units) or four unsplinted Ti-Zr MDIs. The models were virtually designed from a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan of a convenient patient and printed. The artificial mucosa was two millimeters thick. After MDI insertion, the strain gauges were bonded on the oral and vestibular peri-implant sites, and on distal edentulous areas under a denture. After attaching the ODs to MDIs, the ODs were loaded using a metal plate positioned on the first artificial molars (posterior loadings) bilaterally and unilaterally with 50, 100, and 150 N forces, respectively. During anterior loadings, the plate was positioned on the denture’s incisors and loaded with 50 and 100 N forces. Each loading was repeated 15 times. The means with standard deviations, and the significance of the differences (two- and three-factor MANOVA) were calculated. Variations in the MDI number, location, and splinting status elicited different microstrains. Higher loading forces elicited higher microstrains. Unilateral loadings elicited higher microstrains than bilateral and anterior loadings, especially on the loading side. Peri-implant microstrains were lower in the four-MDI single-unit model than in both two-MDI models (unsplinted and splinted). Posterior implants showed higher peri-implant microstrains than anterior in the four-MDI model. The splinting of the two-MDI did not have a significant effect on peri-implant microstrains but elicited lower microstrains in the posterior edentulous area. The strains did not exceed the bone reparatory mechanisms, although precaution and additional study should be addressed when two Ti-Zr MDIs support mandibular ODs.

“…Dentures on the other hand are removable prosthesis that may not be very efficient in chewing and overall functional capacity of the oral cavity and this could be due to the fact that implants offer a stable and retention where the prostheses are firmly fixed on the jawbone or mandible. [19] .…”

Dental prostheses can improve oral health and have an impact on occlusal function in edentulous patients. For instance, implant-supported dentures are thought to improve masticatory efficiency and biting power; these more modern instruments have demonstrated to offer greater patient satisfaction than traditional complete dentures. Patient-related characteristics such as age, sex, and associated illnesses or comorbid conditions may influence treatment success. Even though total tooth loss is declining globally, edentulism is still frequent, especially in older persons. Modern prosthetics have a major positive impact on oral health overall and occlusal function. Enhancing patient well-being and optimizing treatment outcomes require an understanding of and attention to patient-specific requirements.
