Abstract
Background/Objectives: Fully digital workflows used in implant dentistry have been evolving to improve rehabilitation times and patient satisfaction. More studies are necessary for full scientific validation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the 6-month outcome of implant-supported fixed prostheses for full edentulism rehabilitation using OnX Tough 2 resin (SprintRay) and the Pro 2 (SprintRay) 3D printer following the All-on-4 concept. Methods: This study included 16 patients (10 female, 6 male) with 20 implant-supported fixed full-arch prostheses following the All-on-4 concept (10 rehabilitations for each stackable guide and photogrammetry protocols). Primary The primary outcome measure was implant and prosthetic survival. The secondary outcome measures included manufacturing issues, prosthetic passive fit, marginal bone loss (MBL), mechanical and biological complications, modified plaque and bleeding indexes, pocket depths, patient subjective evaluation, and the Oral Health Impact Profile. Results: No patients were lost to follow-up. Two prostheses failed and 2 two implants were lost, resulting in a cumulative survival rate of 90% and 97.5% at 6 months for prostheses and implants, respectively. The mean MBL was 0.31 mm ± 0.52 mm at 4 months. The mechanical complications rate was 50% at patient level. One patient (6.3%) experienced one biological complication. The grades regarding "comfort of prostheses in the mouth" and "overall chewing feeling" were 9.35 ± 1.29 and 8.79 ± 1.67 out of 10, respectively. The mean total sum of the OHIP-14 was 1.61 out of 56. Conclusions: Implant-supported full-arch rehabilitations with fixed prostheses following the All-on-4 concept, through a fully digital workflow protocol, are a viable option in the short term.
