A multicenter retrospective review of the mandibular staple bone plate

Inter‐abutment and peri‐abutment mucosal enlargement with mandibular implant overdentures

“…Early evidence showed mucosal enlargements to be most commonly related to implants penetrating non‐keratinized mucosa in mandibular implant overdentures (Small 1978; Helfrick et al 1982; Kent et al 1984; Parel 1986; Small & Misiek 1986; Bosker 1986; Engquist et al 1988; Bosker & van Dijk 1989; Bosker et al 1991). With advanced mandibular residual ridge resorption, abutments are placed more supragingival, and hence larger dead spaces are created underneath mandibular overdentures.…”

Clinical trials on the prognosis of dental implants

“…However, until the early 1980% dental implants lacked sufficient long-term evaluation. Among the earlier implant designs, only the mandibular transosteal staples demonstrate sufficient long-term efficacy (3,25). Although subperiosteal and blade implants improved the functional and aesthetic comfort of patients, the overall long-term assessment of such implants did not fulfill the requirements for long-term success as established by the Harvard Consensus Conference in 1978 and later by Albrektsson (3,34).…”
