Abstract:
From March 2004 to June 2007, the effect of the 32 Endopore implants which were placed in 25 patients with the inadequate alveolar jaw bone treated in the Implant Center of Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Anhui Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with Endopore implants of 5 mm ? 7 mm without any bone grafts simultaneously. Second-stage restoration was conducted 3-6 months later. Regular follow-up was between 1 and 4 years. All of the 32 implants gained osseointegration and were restored. During the follow-up, no implant loosed or lost. No inflammation was observed in the soft tissue around the implants. All the patients were satisfied with the final prostheses. With the unique root surface of porous microscopic titanium particle and the shorter design, Endopore implants can be used in the posterior area of inadequate alveolar jaw bone. They could improve the indication of the dental implant.
