“…The rest of the articles were read carefully to extract conclusions or notices related to positive bone remodeling, bone preserving, bone formation, or increasing bone density of the alveolar ridge with implant. Articles which could not be retrieved as the reference numbers 21 and 22 in the article of Davis et al [17] were not included. Other articles [18–21] ( n = 4) were added manually after reading the bibliography of previous citations.…”

“…Additionally, Kordatzis et al [74] concluded 1-mm annual reduction in bone loss at using implant overdenture comparing to the conventional denture. Davis et al [17] noticed the liability of the severely resorbed mandible for regeneration. After more than 4 years of function, anterior implant regenerated bone in the mental foramen area created a mandibular canal that previously was unseen.…”

To what extent residual alveolar ridge can be preserved by implant? A systematic review

BackgroundIt has been reported that the load for (or to) implant-supported restoration may lead to bone remodeling as bone resorption and/or formation. While many authors supported the process of bone resorption, others elaborated bone apposition and increasing bone density close and remote to implant body (or fixture). This may suggest the role of the implant to reserve alveolar ridge from physiologic/pathologic resorption. The aim of this systematic review was to predict to how extend dental implants can preserve the residual alveolar ridge based on previous clinical investigations.MethodsThis systematic review based on the retrospective and prospective studies, randomized clinical trial, and case reports. The process of searching for proposed articles included PubMed, Ovid, and Web of Science databases, with specific inclusion and exclusion criterion.ResultsA total 2139 citations were identified. After expunging the repeated articles between databases and application of exclusion and inclusion criteria, 18 articles were found to meet the topic of this systematic review. Many of the articles reported bone preservation with implant-assisted restorations, and the rest denoted noticeable bone apposition.ConclusionAccording to the published clinical studies, the behavior of bone remodeling around implant predicts a sort of residual alveolar bone preservation.

“…However, evaluating posterior mandibular bone height change after usage of implant supported prostheses either fixed or removable were little in the literature and lack of consistency which might cause researchers to mislead to analyze data from the different studies. [2,9,10,[17][18][19][20] This systematic review was conducted to compare amount of posterior mandibular bone height changes of fixed implant restorations versus implant overdentures. This included only one RCT10 and two prospective cohort studies which are considered of a lower level of evidence than that of RCTs.…”

“…These findings were also described by Davis and Nakai. [7,18] Wright et al assumed that flexing of the mandible under masticatory load is the stimulus for the bone proliferation, such flexing being encouraged by the application of the entire load anterior to the mental foramina. [2] Another suggestion was described by Lanyon that dynamic loading of bone can have a profound osteogenic effect, especially when the strains and strain rates are high, and the strain distributions unusual.…”

Introduction: To compare the bone height changes of the posterior mandibular edentulous area of fixed implant prosthesis versus that of removable implant overdentures. Materials & Methods: An electronic search was performed using PubMed and Cochrane CENTRAL databases for articles published in English till the end of November 2016. Inclusion criteria were randomized clinical trials (RCTs) and prospective cohort studies (PS) which measured the changes of the height of the posterior edentulous area of the mandible. Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts, made data extraction and appraised the quality of included studies. Results: From a total of six identified relevant studies, two randomized clinical trials and two prospective cohort studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The authors of the included studies concurred to bone resorption as a result of removable prostheses and advocated to fixed prostheses as it allow for preservation of the bone height and even bone apposition. Conclusion: the implant fixed prosthesis is superior over the implant removable overdentures regarding the preservation of the posterior edentulous bone height.

“…Jaws with implant-supported prostheses show less bone loss than jaws with conventional dentures, probably because of more adequate functional stimulus to the bone via implants than through dentures 11,24,25,26. Not only reduced bone loss but even bone apposition has been demonstrated in jaws with fixed implant-supported prostheses 26,27.…”

PURPOSETo present a literature review on implant overdentures after a brief survey of bone loss after extraction of all teeth.MATERIALS AND METHODSPapers on alveolar bone loss and implant overdentures have been studied for a narrative review.RESULTSBone loss of the alveolar process after tooth extraction occurs with great individual variation, impossible to predict at the time of extraction. The simplest way to prevent bone loss is to avoid extraction of all teeth. To keep a few teeth and use them or their roots for a tooth or root-supported overdenture substantially reduces bone loss. Jaws with implant-supported prostheses show less bone loss than jaws with conventional dentures. Mandibular 2-implant overdentures provide patients with better outcomes than do conventional dentures, regarding satisfaction, chewing ability and oral-health-related quality of life. There is no strong evidence for the superiority of one overdenture retention-system over the others regarding patient satisfaction, survival, peri-implant bone loss and relevant clinical factors. Mandibular single midline implant overdentures have shown promising results but long-term results are not yet available. For a maxillary overdenture 4 to 6 implants splinted with a bar provide high survival both for implants and overdenture.CONCLUSIONIn edentulous mandibles, 2-implant overdentures provide excellent long-term success and survival, including patient satisfaction and improved oral functions. To further reduce the costs a single midline implant overdenture can be a promising option. In the maxilla, overdentures supported on 4 to 6 implants splinted with a bar have demonstrated good functional results.
