Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |

Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Monitoring of clinical parameters through examinations of visible plaque index, gingival bleeding index, presence of calculus, probing depth index and implant stability quotient.;Evaluate quality of life and chewing function indicators before loading, during the first year of transition from complete dentures to overdentures and after 2 and 3 years.;Monitor the peri-implant bone level and posterior resorption of the mandibular ridge after 1, 2 and 3 years of occlusal loading.;Monitor the circumferential bone level of the implants at 1 and 3 years.;Evaluate the success and survival of implants.;Describe prosthetic complications over 3 years depending on. | — |
