RESULTS OF ORTHOPEDIC TREATMENT USING PERMANENT STRUCTURES SUPPORTED BY DENTAL IMPLANTS IN PRIVATE PRACTICE

Literary data testify to the significant prevalence of the dental implantation method to solve the problem of permanent prosthetics in partial and complete anodontia. However, a significant array of information needs systematization and generalization, taking into account the specifics of providing dental care by dental institutions in different regions. The authors conducted a retrospective study of the main statistical regularities based on the results of 32 cases of treatment of secondary anodontia by replacing bounded and finite distally unlimited defects of the lower and upper jaws with the support of dental endosseous implants as exemplified by outpatient care at a private dental office in the city of Poltava (Ukraine). Dental implantation and subsequent prosthetics were performed at one medical institution, by one doctor in cooperation with one dental laboratory in the city of Poltava (Ukraine). The term of retrospective observation was 5 years. The condition for inclusion in the study was the manufacture of a non-removable orthopedic appliance with the non-removable fixation on dismountable and full-body intraosseous screw dental implants. In all cases, metal and ceramic structures with cement fixation on intraosseous dental implants of the Implife Classic, Implife Solo (Inpride company, Ukraine) Vitaplant VK Vitaplant V2Kn (Vitadent company, Ukraine) implant systems were manufactured. Observation of the treatment outcomes was carried out an average of 32 months after the fixation of 69 orthopedic appliances. It turned out that the protocol of permanent prosthetics to replace partial defects of the dentition was implemented mainly in the middle-aged group. Periodic outpatient monitoring of orthopedic appliances with cement fixation on intraosseous implants takes place within the period from 6 to 60 months. The average observation period was 32.8 months. Characteristic statistical regularities related to the selection of individuals and the most common types of implants for solving standard clinical tasks were determined. The average number of implants per clinical case was 4 supports, and the average diameter and length of the integrated implants were 3.5 and 11 mm, respectively.
