Swiss Dental Journal 2018 September 11
Effect of prosthesis and dental implants on quality of life related to the patient’s oral health can guide the clinician in providing best services. The zygomatic implant (ZI) is a partial or complete alternative technique to so-called traditional rehabilitation techniques (aiming to increase bone volume) of edentulous atrophic maxillae. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of fixed prosthetic rehabilitation by ZI on patients’ quality of life. This study highlighted the level of satisfaction of nine patients treated with ZI via their pre-therapeutic and post-therapeutic scores on the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-14 scale. Effect of ZI on quality of life in reference literature was also discussed. The mean pre-therapeutic and post-therapeutic OHIP scores were 29.1 and 5.8, respectively. Results about the quality of life of our patients was very satisfying. In accordance with literature, fixed prosthetic rehabilitation on ZI brought satisfaction in both its functional and aesthetic dimensions. This option of therapeutic arsenal for advanced atrophy of the edentulous maxillary is becoming more and more interesting in our daily practice.
