“…The active tactile sensibility of single-tooth implants opposing a natural tooth is similar to that of pairs of natural teeth (Enkling et al 2007). This suggests that similar sensory-motor pathways guide impulses generated in the periodontal ligament and peri-implant region (Batista et al 2008) and that implants may have tactile sensibility of their own (Enkling et al 2012).…”

“…In addition, it also remains to be demonstrated how a potential compensatory mechanism might work, with one of the options being osseoperception [2, 18–23]. In this context, it is also important to consider the adaptation time needed after oral rehabilitation.…”

“…While patients with implant-supported bridges are able to bite food with varying levels of hardness, it could be questioned whether they are able to differentiate between the hardness variations and thus apply an adapted chewing pattern [33]. Although some studies have demonstrated the tactile function of patients with oral implants [18, 19], the perception of food hardness is yet another sensory function that should be evaluated in order to obtain more information on modulation and masticatory adaptation. However, there have been few studies on this issue.…”

Short-term follow-up of masticatory adaptation after rehabilitation with an immediately loaded implant-supported prosthesis: a pilot assessment

BackgroundWhen teeth are extracted, sensory function is decreased by a loss of periodontal ligament receptions. When replacing teeth by oral implants, one hopes to restore the sensory feedback pathway as such to allow for physiological implant integration and optimized oral function with implant-supported prostheses. What remains to be investigated is how to adapt to different oral rehabilitations.The purpose of this pilot study was to assess four aspects of masticatory adaptation after rehabilitation with an immediately loaded implant-supported prosthesis and to observe how each aspect will recover respectively.MethodsEight participants with complete dentures were enrolled. They received an implant-supported acrylic resin provisional bridge, 1 day after implant surgery. Masticatory adaptation was examined by assessing occlusal contact, approximate maximum bite force, masticatory efficiency of gum-like specimens, and food hardness perception.ResultsOcclusal contact and approximate maximum bite force were significantly increased 3 months after implant rehabilitation, with the bite force gradually building up to a 72% increase compared to baseline. Masticatory efficiency increased by 46% immediately after surgery, stabilizing at around 40% 3 months after implant rehabilitation. Hardness perception also improved, with a reduction of the error rate by 16% over time.ConclusionsThis assessment demonstrated masticatory adaptation immediately after implant rehabilitation with improvements noted up to 3 months after surgery and rehabilitation. It was also observed that, despite gradually improved bite force in all patients, masticatory efficiency and food hardness perception did not necessarily follow this tendency. The findings in this pilot may also be used to assess adaptation of oral function after implant rehabilitation by studying the combined outcome of four tests (occlusal contact, maximum bite force, masticatory efficiency, and food hardness perception).

“…Aynı zamanda, titreşime çok hassas olan kas iğciklerinin de osseopersepsiyonda önemli bir rolü olup olmadığı da hâlâ tartışmalıdır. Söz konusu teori, implanta veya antagonist dişe uygulanan lokal anestezinin; implantların aktif dokunsal duyarlılığını belirgin bir şekilde değiştirmediğini gösteren çalışmalarla desteklenmektedir (65,66).…”

ÖZAmaç: Diş eksikliği, bireylerin estetik özelliklerini, fonksiyon ve fonasyonlarını kötü yönde etkilemektedir. Özellikle tam dişsizlik olgularında, hazırlanacak protezler, çiğneme fonksiyonunu etkinleştirip kolaylaştırarak hayat kalitesini yükseltmelidir.Tam protez kullanan hastaların büyük bölümü özellikle alt protezlerin tutuculuğu ve stabilitesinden şikayetçidirler. Tam protez kullanımıyla çiğneme kas aktivitelerinde belirgin bir azalma olduğu bilinmektedir. Tam protez kullanan hastaların, hasta memnuniyetini artırmak amacıyla birçok yöntem denenmiş ve implant destekli tam protezlerle hasta memnuniyetinin belirgin bir düzeyde arttığı görülmüştür. uygulanan tam protezlerin implant yardımıyla stabilitesinin artırılması ile kas aktivitelerinde artış sağlanarak, tam protez kullanan hastaların çiğneme etkinliklerinin artırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler:Anatomik koşullar göz önüne alınarak, tam dişsiz hastaların her iki çenesine de 2 adet implant yerleştirildi. implantların osseointegrasyonunun ardından protezleri uygulandı. Protezlerin uyum süreci olan 1 aylık kullanımdan sonra test materyali olarak ceviz verildi, hastalar tarafından çiğnemeleri istendi ve hastaların çiğneme performanslarının değerlendirilmesi amacıyla, elek analizi yöntemi kullanıldı. Bu test, implant destekli hareketli protez hastalarının dışında, tam protez ve tam dişli hastalara da uygulandı. Bulgular:Hasta gruplarının elek üzerinde kalan materyal miktarlarının ortalamaları arasındaki farklılıklar değerlendirildiğinde, istatistiksel olarak anlamlı sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Sonuç:Tam protez kullanan hasta grubu elek açıklığı en geniş olan 8 nolu elekte en yüksek değeri göstermiştir. Bu veriye göre tam protez hastalarının daha küçük boyutlara test materyalini getirebilecek yeterli çiğneme performansının olmadığını göstermektedir. Daha dar açıklığa sahip olan 45-60 nolu eleklerde iDHP hastalarının TD hastalarıyla benzer sonuçlar göstermesi, iDHP hastalarının implantın retansiyona ve stabiliteye katkı sağlaması nedeniyle daha iyi çiğneme performası gösterdiğini ve hastaların daha stabil protezler ile daha rahat çiğneyebildiklerini gösterdi.Anahtar Sözcükler: Mastikatör performans, implant üstü hareketli protezler, Çiğneme performansı, Dental implant, Elek testi aBstract objective: Missing teeth negatively affect aesthetic characteristics of individuals besides the function and phonation. Especially, in the case of edentulous patients, prepared dentures activate and also facilitate the chewing function. What's more, they improve the quality of life for individuals.The majority of patients treated with complete dentures particularly suffer from lower denture retention and stability. It is known that a marked decrease occurs in the activity of the muscles of mastication with the use of complete dentures. Many methods have been tried to increase the satisfaction of patients using complete dentures and patient satisfaction has been shown to increase with complete dentures and implant-supported prostheses. Patients treated with complete dentu...
