Comparing Single vs. Two Dental Implants for Prosthetic Rehabilitation of Edentulous Patients: Enhancing Function and Quality of Life

Posted: December 20, 2024
The article compared the effectiveness of single median dental implant retained over dentures (SIMOD) with over dentures retained by two dental implants (TIMOD) for prosthetic rehabilitation of edentulous patients. The study showed that both SIMOD and TIMOD resulted in significantly increased patient comfort, esthetics, chewing ability, speech, general satisfaction, denture retention, stability, and support compared to conventional complete dentures (CD). Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQOL) was also significantly improved with SIMOD and TIMOD. The findings suggest that SIMOD and TIMOD offer improved outcomes and enhanced OHRQOL for completely edentulous patients.
