Patient‐reported outcome and its association with attachment type and bone volume in mandibular implant overdenture

Abstract

Improvement in patients' OHRQoL and satisfaction with ISOD was associated with their baseline ratings. Mandibular bone volume had a stronger association for improvement in OHRQoL compared to type of attachment.

Five‐year study of mandibular overdentures on stud abutments: Clinical outcome, patient satisfaction and prosthetic maintenance—Influence of bone resorption and implant position

“…It has previously been discussed that the retention of the denture is the most important factor in the patient's comfort (Alfadda et al, 2017;de Albuquerque, Fromentin, Lassauzay, & Conceição Pereira Saraiva, 2018). An effect of the resorption of the mandible on the outcome was not observed, contrary to the work of Khalid who observed a significant correlation between the bone volume and the OHIP changes (Khalid et al, 2017). The clinical visual technique of evaluating the crestal bone mass in the present study, a combination of bone height and bone volume, without cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) could be an explanation for this different outcome.…”

“…on the OHRQoL, similar to other studies albeit with more patients and a longer follow-up (Bilhan, Geckili, Sulun, et al, 2011;De Bruyn et al, 2015;Fernandez-Estevan et al, 2015;Khalid et al, 2017;Kleis et al, 2010;Reissmann et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2017). The improved OHRQoL is present in all seven sub-domains of the OHIP-14 total score, contrary to other authors (Khalid et al, 2017).…”

“…The 5‐year follow‐up yielded a 100% implant survival and a positive impact of the cylindrical stud abutment (Locator) 2IOD on the OHRQoL, similar to other studies albeit with more patients and a longer follow‐up (Bilhan, Geckili, Sulun, et al, ; De Bruyn et al, ; Fernandez‐Estevan et al, ; Khalid et al, ; Kleis et al, ; Reissmann et al, ; Zhang et al, ). The improved OHRQoL is present in all seven sub‐domains of the OHIP‐14 total score, contrary to other authors (Khalid et al, ). Notwithstanding the improved OHIP after 5 years, it was negatively correlated to the maintenance cost and the retention loss as observed by the clinician.…”

“…Recent reviews, evaluating bar and ball connections, predominantly in short‐term studies, showed that an IOD in general has a positive effect on the oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) of the edentulous patient (De Bruyn et al, ; Reissmann, Dard, Lamprecht, Struppek, & Heydecke, ; Zhang, Lyu, Shang, Niu, & Liang, ). The cylindrical stud attachment (Locator) is widely used in general practice and has proven to be effective in IOD retention as well as OHRQoL improvement (Bilhan, Geckili, Sulun, & Bilgin, ; Enami et al, ; Fernandez‐Estevan, Selva‐Otaolaurruchi, Montero, & Sola‐Ruiz, ; Khalid, Yunus, Ibrahim, Elkezza, & Masood, ; Kleis, Kämmerer, Hartmann, Al‐Nawas, & Wagner, ). A low maintenance and complication rate are important given its impact on cost aspects in the long run (Cristache, Muntianu, Burlibasa, & Didilescu, ; Fernandez‐Estevan, Montero, Selva Otaolaurruchi, & Sola Ruiz, ; Kim, Lee, Shin, & Bryant, ; Parmar, Karir, Walmsley, & Patel, ; Trakas, Michalakis, Kang, & Hirayama, ).…”

Relationship of periodontal disease and domains of oral health‐related quality of life

“…Although various oral conditions are not fatal, they have significant impacts on the quality of life of individuals in terms of physical, social and psychological problems (Khalid, Yunus, Ibrahim, Elkezza, & Masood, 2017;Masood, Masood, & Newton, 2014;Masood, Newton, Bakri, Khalid, & Masood, 2017;Ventegodt, Flensborg-Madsen, Andersen, & Merrick, 2008). Among oral conditions, Global Burden of Disease study shows that severe periodontal disease is one of the most common oral conditions globally (GBD 2016 DALYs andHALE Collaborators, 2017;Kassebaum et al, 2017).…”
