TI  - Evaluation of the demographic profile of patients with
implant-supported fixed dental prostheses:
A retrospective clinical study
AB  - Aim: In this study, the aim is to evaluate the demographic profile as well
as clinical aspects of patients who received implant-supported fixed dental
prostheses (FDPs) between 2016 and 2019 years.
Methodology: Among 150 patients with implant-supported FDPs, 120
contacted patients were included in the study. The patients were
examined in terms of gender, age groups, edentulism, restoration type,
implant location, implant survival rate, and abutment type by using the
computer software. Data results were analyzed by descriptive statistical
methods.
Results: Three hundred and six dental implants were evaluated in a total
of 120 patients, 55 men, and 65 women. The average age of the patients
was 49.61 ± 11.84, and the most common dental implant application was
in the 51–60 age group. Dental implants were frequently applied to the
posterior mandible, and 31.9% of them were applied to patients in the 51–
60 age group. A 94.8% implant survival rate was observed. A significant
difference was found among age groups with laser-sintered metal-ceramics
(LSMC) and all-ceramics (p<0.05). LSMC was the most common type of
restoration, and straight abutments were frequently used.
Conclusion: Although the survival rate of dental implants is high,
implants with a medium length and diameter are frequently used. The type
of restoration, type of abutment, and implant location in implantsupported FDPs vary depending on the age and gender of the patients.
