[Clinical applications of Brånemark system implant in the Nippon Dental University Hospital. A 5-year report].
A clinical review was performed on patients who requested implantation and visited the Nippon Dental University Hospital during the five years from April 1985 to June 1990. This report describes patient characteristics and treatment results. 1. The total number of new patients was 127 (68 males and 59 females). Their ages ranged from 20 to 80 years. 2. The number of patients who were diagnosed with an indication for implantation and completed the 1st stage operation was 39 (30.7%). An additional 23 patients (18.1%) entered preoperative treatment and are waiting for their operation. Overall, implantation was indicated in 48.8% of all new patients. 3. The ages of patients at fixture installation ranged from 20 to 79 years (mean 60.54, S.D. 11.21) among the 39 patients (20 males and 19 females) who completed the 1st stage operation. As for the number of jaws, implantation was indicated in 40 jaws (21 in male patients and 19 in females). Maxillary implants were indicated in 8 jaws and mandibular implants were indicated in 32 jaws (1 male patient had indications in both jaws). 4. The total number of implanted fixtures was 198, of which 39 were installed in the maxilla, and 159 in the mandible (1 female patient was 5 mandibular fixtures installed at the University of British Columbia, Canada). 5. Of the fixtures implanted in 40 jaws, 94.9% of maxillary fixtures and 98.1% of mandibular fixtures remained stable after the 1st stage operation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
