“…In our CD group, all domains showed decreased values for the lower prosthesis, when compared to the upper one, emphasizing the subjective perception about the reduced retention and stability of the mandibular conventional CD. One study found a low degree of satisfaction with aesthetics after 2 months using an SIO containing a metallic framework, but SIO patients in our study did not complain about unsatisfactory aesthetics after using their SIOs for 6 months. We suspect that after a sufficient period, patients become accustomed to the metallic framework and become less self‐conscious about its aesthetics.…”

“…Recent studies have shown higher general satisfaction with SIOs than with conventional CDs . An individual's perception of how his or her prosthesis affects social interactions and self‐esteem may be more important than functional attributes, such as retention, stability, and occlusion .…”

“…To overcome the disadvantages of a removable prosthetic device, such as absence of retention and stability and the risk of malnutrition, given by the reduced nutrient absorption of a soft diet, dental implants have become the first‐choice for rehabilitating edentulous arches because implant‐supported prostheses improve one's ability to chew, essential for maintaining a proper diet, which in turn may prevent vitamin deficiencies and reduced nutrient intake, especially in older patients . To improve chewing ability for patients with resorbed ridges, a treatment approach involving a single implant overdenture (SIO) in the anterior midline region of the edentulous mandible has been described as a suitable, low‐cost alternative for patients who find it difficult to adapt to a lower CD.…”

Aims:To compare prosthesis satisfaction and nutritional intake of edentulous elderly people wearing a conventional complete denture (CD) with those wearing a single implant mandibular overdenture (SIO) after 6 months of use. Methods and results:Completely edentulous elderly patients (n = 22) were divided between a group rehabilitated with CDs in both dental arches and a group receiving a mandibular SIO with a conventional CD in the upper arch (n = 11/group). Patients completed a visual analog scale for degree of satisfaction with their prostheses in seven categories. Nutritional intake of patients (based on patient diaries) was evaluated over a 3-day period. SIO wearers were more satisfied with their prostheses than were CD wearers. Six months after rehabilitation, the SIO group consumed foods higher in vitamins B2 and B6, whereas the CD group consumed more sodium.Conclusion: SIO wearers are more satisfied with their prosthesis and consume greater amounts of vitamin B2 and vitamin B6 in their diets than CD wearers.

“…Subjects had participated in a previous study (16) and were recruited from patients seeking surgical or prosthetic treatment at Piracicaba Dental School, University of Campinas. The inclusion criteria were patient age of 60 years or older; good general health or adequately medication-controlled systemic disease, such as hypertension or diabetes; normal salivary flow rates (>0.70 g/mL); completely edentulous, classified as Type III or IV according to the American College of Prosthodontics classification (17); and current use of unsatisfactory CD, according to the Rise Index (18).…”

Sensorial Ability, Mastication and Nutrition of Single-Implant Overdentures Wearers

et al. 2019

The use of two-implant overdentures improves mastication of edentulous elderly patients. However, little is known about the effects of single-implant overdentures (SIO) on oral perception and masticatory function in such elders. This study compared the effects of conventional complete dentures (CD) and SIO on the oral sensorimotor ability (OSA), masticatory function, and nutritional intake of elderly people with residual alveolar mandibular height classified as Class III or IV according to the American College of Prosthodontics. Twelve elders first received new conventional CD, which were later converted to SIO. All variables were evaluated after use of each prosthesis for 2 months. To evaluate OSA, elders closed their eyes and orally identified test pieces prepared from raw carrots. A kinesiographic device was used to measure chewing movements during mastication of a test material (Optocal). Masticatory performance (MP) was determined with the sieving method, and a 3-day food diary verified nutrient intake based on a standard Brazilian Food Composition Table. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed rank test and Student's paired t test (P < 0.05). OSA results did not differ according to prosthesis type. However, opening and closing velocities during chewing and MP increased after SIO insertion (P < 0.05). Although no difference was observed in the intake of most nutrients, sodium ingestion decreased after SIO insertion (P < 0.05). SIO use had no effect on OSA, but significantly improved mastication and sodium intake of elders with decreased residual ridges height (Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials #RBR-3kgttj).

“…This treatment modality provided clinicians with a successful, cost‐effective and functional alternative for the management of patients presenting with mandibular ridge resorption that rendered conventional complete dentures cumbersome. Several studies have reported the success and clinical viability of single implant‐retained overdentures (SIROD) . But, these publications presented differences in workflow and were associated with a plethora of complications.…”

Purpose: This systematic review was undertaken to establish the most favourable protocol to treat an edentulous mandible with a single implant-retained overdenture. The formulated PICO question was: "Which surgical and prosthetic protocols result in the highest survival and complication rates of implants and prostheses employed in a single implant retained overdenture for the rehabilitation of a completely edentulous mandibular ridge?" Materials and Methods: A structured literature search was conducted using the following databases; PubMed, ScienceDirect, COCHRANE, LILACS, IndeMED, OVID, EMBASE, NIH Clinical Trials for reports related to the single implant-retained overdenture treatment. Only English articles were included. Publications with a minimum follow up time of 1 year and above were included for meta-analysis. A Poisson regression model was applied to estimate the survival rates of the implant and prosthesis employed. Results: The electronic database search yielded 2083 titles and abstracts; and a total of 17 were selected for the systematic review, of which 11 studies were subjected to meta-analysis. The implants showed high estimated five and 10-year survival rates of 91.93% and 84.62%, respectively. Implants that were delayed loaded showed the greatest survival rates, while immediately loaded implants presented with higher survival rates at five (p = 0.849) and 10 years (p = 0.464) when compared to early loaded implants. The greatest number of fractures were associated with ball abutments with an event rate of 10.8 (95% CI: 10.5-11.09) per 100 prosthesis years, while locator abutments showed a greater number of maintenance events with an event rate of 16.84(95% CI:16.01-17.66) per 100 prosthesis years. Conclusion: Single implant-retained overdenture treatment is a cost-effective, minimally invasive and simple treatment that can be used to restore function and aesthetics to edentulous patients, with relatively high implant and prosthesis success rates and minimal complications.
