Brief summary

Survival and success rates of all-ceramic implant-supported fixed reconstructions fabricated with CAD/CAM technology after at least one year in function. Survival and success rates (clinical, radiologic and esthetic) of all-ceramic implant-supported fixed reconstructions fabricated with CAD/CAM technology after 2 to 10 years in function. Establishment of a database of patients with all-ceramic implant-supported fixed reconstructions fabricated with CAD/CAM technology for future longitudinal retrospective studies.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Survival and success rates of all-ceramic implant-supported fixed reconstructions1 yearNumber of all-ceramic implant-supported fixed reconstructions fabricated with CAD/CAM technology still in place after at least one year in function.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of patients with biological complications assessed via periapical x-ray1 yearA radiological evaluation of the implant crowns will be performed to measure and evaluate the bone crestal changes
Number of patients with technical complications1 yearA clinical evaluation of the implant crowns will be performed in order to detect any kind of complication, namely chipping, screw loosening or abutment fracture
Number of patients with biological complications assessed via clinical examination1 yearA clinical evaluation of the implant crowns will be performed in order to detect any kind of biological complication, namely periimplantitis and perimucositis
Patient satisfaction as assessed by VAS B1 yearPatients assess by patient questionnaire their implant reconstructions, in terms of esthetics by means of a Visual Analog Scale (VAS B), where the parameter will be scored from 1 to 10.
Esthetic outcome1 yearThe esthetic examination included the Pink and White Esthetic Score Assessment (PES/WES) according to Belser et al. 2009 & Furhäuser et al. 2005 on a scale from 0-10 whereas 10 means an optimal outcome.
Patient satisfaction as assessed by VAS A1 yearPatients assess by patient questionnaire their implant reconstructions, in terms of function by means of a Visual Analog Scale (VAS A), where the parameter will be scored from 1 to 10.
