What is Comparison of Brånemark fixture integration and short‐term survival using one‐stage or two‐stage surgery in completely and partially edentulous mandibles about?
The aim of this prospective study was to compare the clinical integration and survival of Brånemark fixtures when using the conventional 2‐stage surgical procedure to a 1‐stage surgical approach in completely and partially edentulous mandibles. A total of 85 patients were consecutively treated for partial (__n__=35) or complete (__n__=50) mandibular edentulousness. Fixtures removed because of mobility, pain or infection were counted as failures. The first 10 patients of each group were selected for radiographical analysis of crestal bone changes 1 year after prosthesis insertion. In 33 patients with edentulous mandibles, 170 fixtures were placed in a 1‐stage approach. In this group, 4 fixtures (2.4%) were lost prior to prosthetic restoration. Seventeen edentulous patients received a total of 70 fixtures in a 2‐stage procedure. Out of these, 5 fixtures (7.1%) were lost at abutment connection. In 17 partially edentulous patients, 41 fixtures were inserted in a 1‐stage approach. Two fixtures (5%) were lost in this group. Finally, 18 partially edentulous patients received a total of 49 fixtures in a 2‐stage procedure. Out of these, 6 fixtures (12%) were lost at abutment connection. In
