Abstract
This study aimed to figure out the difference between a full-arch screw-retained implant prosthesis on titanium bases using intraoral luting cement technique and a full-arch screw-retained
implant prosthesis with the transmucosal abutment in terms of prosthetic complication. Nineteen patients were recruited in this trial, there were mainly two groups. A screw-retained
full-arch implant-supported prosthesis was constructed over four dental implants on upper or lower jaws.
A multiunit abutment was used to construct a screw-retained prosthesis in the control group. Ti-base was used over the dental implant to build up a screw-retained prosthesis in the experimental group. In both groups, the prosthesis framework was made using PEEK material and luted intraoral over the titanium sleeve using resin cement. A binary outcome of prosthetic complication was taken in 6 and 12 months. Abutment screw loosening, Prosthetic screw loosening, Prosthetic screw fracture, Abutment
screw fracture, Veneer fracture, Framework fracture, Ti-base decementation, and Overall prosthetic
loosening were the prosthetic complication included in the trial.
Data were explored for normality using Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro Wilk tests, data showed non-parametric (not-normal) distribution. Qualitative data were presented as frequencies and
percentages. Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney tests were used to comparing the qualitative outcomes in this study. The significance level was set at P ≤ 0.05. Statistical analysis was performed with IBM® SPSS® Statistics Version 20. There was no statistically significant difference between Ti-base and multiunit in terms of prosthetic complications for 6 and 12 months. Both multiunit and Ti-base were considering a viable line of treatment to construct a screwretained
full arch implant-supported prosthesis
