简要总结
Edentulism compromises chewing efficiency, nutrition, appearance, and quality of life. Full-arch rehabilitation in the maxilla is often challenging due to bone resorption and sinus pneumatization. Traditionally, bone grafting was required; however, tilted and zygomatic implants now provide graftless alternatives. Tilted implants reduce cantilever length and increase prosthetic support, while zygomatic implants engage the zygomatic bone, bypassing the maxillary sinus in cases of severe posterior atrophy.
This non-randomized clinical trial compares the effectiveness of zygomatic implants versus tilted implants in an All-on-6 protocol for completely edentulous maxilla (Beddrosian Zone 1).
Primary Objectives:
- Compare implant stability between zygomatic and tilted implants.
- Assess crestal bone level changes radiographically.
Secondary Objectives:
- Compare ease of surgery and intraoperative time.
- Compare ease of prosthesis fabrication.
- Assess quality of life outcomes (OHIP-14).
Study Design: Non-randomized clinical trial, two groups:
- Group A: Zygomatic implants (n=7)
- Group B: Tilted implants (n=7) Total sample: 14 patients (convenience sampling).
Inclusion Criteria: Patients aged 30–70 years, edentulous maxilla (Beddrosian Zone 1), ASA I/II, consenting and compliant. Exclusion Criteria: Systemic contraindications (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, blood disorders, irradiation), smoking, poor oral hygiene, pregnancy/lactation.
Intervention: All-on-6 protocol using either zygomatic or tilted posterior implants. Delayed loading (3–6 months). Follow-up: Baseline, 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months with radiographic and clinical assessment.
Outcome Measures:
- Implant stability (Resonant Frequency Analysis, manual test).
- Crestal bone level changes (OPG, CBCT).
- Surgical ease & time (VAS, operative time).
- Quality of life (OHIP-14).
- Prosthesis fabrication ease (VAS).
Expected Result: Zygomatic implants may provide superior anchorage and clinical outcomes compared to tilted implants in All-on-6 rehabilitation for severely atrophic maxilla.
Ethics Approval: Obtained from IEC, GDCH Nagpur (Ref: IEC/GDCHN/35/2025, dated 03/03/2025).
