임플란트 시술시 wide fixture의 임상적 적용

Abstract

As experiance with osseointegrated implants has grown, the placements of wide fixtures have been more "required. In this clinical case, we ciscussed about the clinical applications, advantages, and the problems of wide implants. The wide fixture may enhance the initial stability of implants in the case of poor hone quality, poor hone quantity and immediate replacements of non-integrated or fractured implants. One hundred ont implants in thirty nine patients were inserted in various regions of maxilla and mandible. Seven implants were lost after uncovery surgery and after clinical function. All lost implants were replaced with other´ wide implants. The patients treated by using wide implants were very satisfied with their chewing, mastication, and function. We have planned to follow the long term clinical research about using wide implant prosthesis.
