“…Circumstantial evidence from jaw-clenching studies regarding complete edentulous individuals rehabilitated with complete dentures, implant-supported overdentures, or implant-supported fixed dentures ( n = 2) [ 27 , 28 ] suggested that the implant-supported fixed dentures could be the best option, as compared to implant-supported overdentures and complete dentures, as it was associated with higher brain activity levels in various brain regions, including those corresponding to the primary sensory (PostCG) and motor cortices (PreCG). Gum-chewing studies ( n = 4, one with partial edentulous participants) [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 31 ] found that the brain activity levels in various brain regions, such as the prefrontal cortex, PreCG, and the parietal cortex, could be improved by having a dental arch fully replaced, instead of partially replaced, or having a new complete denture replacement. Implant-supported overdenture were associated with lower brain activity levels than those in edentulous patients, but the studies related to these conditions had mixed results, as compared to those with complete dentures.…”
