Evaluation of Occlusal Contact Distribution in Digitally Fabricated Implant-Retained Fixed Partial Dentures in Mandibular Kennedy Class II Patients Following Artificial Intelligence Bite Optimization: A Quasi-Experimental Study

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Partially Edentulous Mandible

In brief

The aim of the study is to evaluate the occlusal contact distribution in digitally fabricated implant-retained fixed partial dentures in mandibular Kennedy Class II patients before and after artificial intelligence bite optimization.

You may qualify if…

Patients with a unilateral mandibular distal extension area (Kennedy Class II partially edentulous mandibular arch) and who are indicated for the insertion of 2 implants.
Fully dentate opposing maxillary arch or restored with a suitable, well constructed fixed prosthesis.
The remaining teeth should be in good periodontal health, with no signs of inflammation or movement.
The edentulous area should be covered by a healthy, firm mucoperiosteum, with no or minimal tissue undercut.
Patient should be with class I occlusion.
No occlusal disorder; stable jaw relation.
No TMD signs or symptoms.
Patients should be in generally good health and free of systemic conditions that can affect the implant treatment, such as diabetes mellitus.

You may not qualify if…

Patients with psychological or mental disorders.
Patients with insufficient interarch space.
Patients with parafunctional habits, such as bruxism.
After the healing phase and exactly before the prosthetic phase, if the inserted implants showed any signs of peri-implantitis or aggressive crestal bone resorption, then this case will be excluded and replaced with another case.
