Failure analysis of mini dental implants used for complete dentures stabilization

Prof. Dr. Torsten Mundt Center for Dental, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Greifswald Polyclinic for dental prosthetics and materials science University Medical Center, Reiner Biffar University of Greifswald · Department of Prosthodontics, Geriatric Dentistry and Medical Materials Science, Friedhelm Heinemann University of Greifswald · Department of Prosthodontics, Geriatric Dentistry and Medical Materials Science, T. Stark, Christian Schwahn

Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyse possible factors for the loss of mini-implants with diameters between 1.8 and 2.4 mm used in the stabilization of complete dentures.

Methods: A total of 79 women and 54 men (mean age of 71.2 ± 9.8 years) were examined and interviewed in 9 dental practices. The patient records were evaluated retrospectively.
The cumulative implant survival rates were depicted with Kaplan- Meier curves and the potential risk factors were evaluated using Cox regression analyses (P < 0.05). Results: Out of 336 mini-implants in 54 maxillae 15 were lost and out of 402 mini dental implants in 95 mandibles 11 were lost due to the lack of or loss of osseointegration. Furthermore, 2 mini-implants fractured during insertion and two more were fractured after 4 and 32 months. The 4-year implant survival rate was 95.4 % in the anterior maxilla, 91.8 % in the posterior maxilla, 97.0 % in the anterior mandible and 91.1 % in the posterior mandible. Without including the fractured mandibular implants, the 4-year survival rate was 97.6 % in the anterior mandible and 95.1 % in the posterior mandible. Significant differences were found between anterior and posterior placement areas (P = 0.039) but not between the jaws (P = 0.188). The survival rate of mini dental implants with a length of 10 mm was lower than the survival rate of longer implants (90.7 % versus > 95 %, P = 0.044). The factors sex, age, and smoking habits were not significant. In the Cox regression analysis, neither the placement area nor the implant length showed a significant Hazard ratio after adjustment.

Conclusion: The 4-year survival rates of mini-implants used in the stabilization of complete dentures were acceptable in both jaws. The failures tended to be more frequent in the posterior area and for shorter implants.
