Aditi Sharma, Mamta Sharma, Randhir Singh

Introduction: An implant-supported overdenture (ISO) is a removable complete denture combined with implants designed to improve stability in the oral environment. Edentulous patients often do not get used to wear conventional dentures. Hence; we planned the present study to assess the complications associated with implant supported over dentures. Materials & methods: The present study included retrospective assessment of complications in patients rehabilitated with dental implant supported over-dentures. We completely analyzed data records of the departments and obtained data of all the patients who underwent prosthetic rehabilitation by dental implant supported over dentures in the past two years. A total of 30 patients were included in the present study. All the results were analyzed by SPSS software. Conclusion: Fewer complications are observed with artificial tooth fracture and denture fracture being the most common complication.
Key words: Artificial, Implant supported, Overdenture
