Abstract
Introduction: To investigate the outcomes of implants and prosthodontic treatments, it is necessary to have information about demographic, surgical and prosthetic variables of each patient. The aim of this study was to provide an organized collection of the implant success-related surgical and prosthetic data of patient records of the dental implant clinic of Isfahan Dental School from 1997 to 2013.
Materials & Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on patients referred to Isfahan Dental School for placement of implants from 1997 to 2013. After accessing the patient records, the demographic characterization, medical and dental histories, follow-up information, as well as surgical and prosthetics data, were collected. Data were reported as frequencies and percentages.
Results: The samples consisted of 2517 implants. The GBR technique was performed on 438 implants. The sinus lift technique had the highest rate in advanced surgical procedures in 158 implants. Autograft was performed in 7% of implants. Alloplast graft had the highest frequency in bone grafts (40.31%), followed by xenograft with a frequency of 38.9%. A total of 905 implants were bone level and 1532 were tissue level.
Conclusion: Alloplast grafts had the highest frequency in GBR. Sinus lift was performed with 158 implants. The most commonly used implant brand was Zimmer.
