From: Long-term treatment outcomes with zygomatic implants: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Study | Prosthesis number | Prosthesis survival | Prosthesis success | Success criteria | Prosthesis fracture | Prosthetic tooth loss | Screw/abutment loosening/fracture | Follow-up |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Kahnberg et al. 2007 | 60 |  | 83.34% (n = 50) | Clinically stable prosthesis that not been removed for two weeks or more during the study period |  | 2 cases requiring laboratory repair | 1 patient with loosening of ball attachments | 36 |
Pellegrino et al. 2020 | 20 | 100% (n = 20) | 90% (n = 9) (95% CI: 47.3–98.5%) Atrophic 58.3% (n = 6) (95% CI: 22.9–82%) Oncologic difference between the groups was not statistically significant (p = 0.77) | Support of all placed implants, extended to the first molar region, not need to be reduced from the day of delivery to the final follow-up |  |  | Prosthetic screw loosening and abutment fractures. All unsuccessful prosthetic events occurred in the first year, with the majority experienced by the oncologic group. 5-year follow-up complication probability values were 10.7% [95% CI 4.1–26%] for the atrophic group, and 10.7% [95% CI 3.5–29.6%] for the oncologic group | 39.9 |
Aparicio et al. 2014 | 80 | NR | NR | NR | 65 events involving fracture of the prosthetic acrylic coating material occurred. 2 fractures of the porcelain coating occurred. No metal framework fractures | NR | 16 screws and abutments loosened within the ZAGA group, and 7 screws fractured | 55.44 |
Davo and Pons 2015 | 14 | 100% (n = 14) |  | Clinically stable prosthesis that not been removed for two weeks or more during the study period | 1 incidence of acrylic fracture from the underlying substructure at 36 months | 1 incident involving loss of an anterior tooth from an acrylic prothesis | Fracture of 1 abutment at 12 months | 60 |
Coppede et al. 2017 | 42 | NR | NR | NR | NR | Fractures or detachments in 5 fixed implant-supported restorations (14.7%) | NR | 60 |
Malo et al. 2014 | 39 | 100% (n = 39) | NR | NR | 3 prostheses fracturing in 3 patients. 2 acrylic prostheses fractured at 48 and 58 months of follow-up, whilst a metal ceramic prosthesis fractured at 49 months | NR | Abutment screw loosening occurred in 1 patient at 54 months and prosthetic screw loosening in 2 patients at 47 and 55 months | 60 |
Davo, Malevez and Pons 2013 | 36 | NR | 97.2% (n = 35 | Clinically stable prosthesis that not been removed for two weeks or more during the study period | NR | Replacement of resin teeth in 4 definitive acrylic fixed prostheses after 4 years of function due to extreme tooth wear | NR | 60 |
Branemark et al. 2004 | 28 | 82% (n = 23) |  | NR | NR | NR | NR | 60 |
Davo 2009 | 21 | NR | 95.8% (n = 20) | Clinically stable prosthesis that not been removed for two weeks or more during the study period | NR | NR | NR | 60 |
Agliardi et al. 2017 | 83 | NR | 100% (n = 83) | In function without mobility or pain, even if one or more of the implants were lost | NR | NR | NR | 85.1 |
Chana et al. 2019 | 88 | 93.98% (n = 82) | NR | NR | Failure only in the fixed prosthetic group, when compared to the removable prosthetic group (n = 5/56 and n = 0/27, respectively). Failure was related to 1 fixed acrylic bar and 4 metal acrylic fixed prostheses | NR | Reported loosening in 7 abutments. 1 patient experienced abutment loosening twice within a 12-month period | 90 |
Miglioranca et al. 2012 | 21 | 95.2% (n = 20) | NR | NR | Fracture of the metal bar supporting a prosthesis in 1 patient | NR | NR | 96 |
Fortin Y. 2017 | 58 | 100% (n = 58) | NR | NR | NR | NR | NR | 100.8 |
Bothur et al. 2015 | 14 | 92.9% (n = 13) | NR | NR | NR | NR | Reported loosening of 2 angled abutments and a third with a damaged thread | 111.6 |
Aparicio et al. 2014 | 22 | 95.5% (n = 21) |  | NR | 4 incidents of fracture of the acrylic coating material, 25 fractures of the porcelain coating material, and fracture of 2 metal frameworks |  | Reported 6 episodes of screw fractures and 9 episodes of screw or abutment loosening | 120 |
