Abstract
Aim: The exclusive aim of this study was to assess of crestal bone loss in patients treated with mandibular implant over dentures. Authors utilized three dimensional diagnostic tool i.e. cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the study. Materials & Methods: The study was conducted in the department of Prosthodontics of the institute wherein systematic sampling procedure was done to select completely edentulous patients. Complete dentures were fabricated with standard manner with compression moulding technique and heat cure acrylic resin. Cone beam computed tomography was completed to assess the bone quality and quantity at desired locations. Total 6 male and 6 female patients were included in the study. Group I has the implants of the right side of the mandible and Group II has implant placed on the left side of the mandible. The twenty four implants were studied in detail for bone losses in post operative phases. at mesial, distal, buccal and lingual sides of the dental implants. P value less than 0.05 was considered significant (p< 0.05). Statistical Analysis and Results: Statistical analysis was completed by statistical software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS).
