In autoimmune diseases such as oral lichen planus or mucosal pemphigoid, a sufficient prosthetic restoration without dental implants is often not feasible. Interdisciplinary planning between the prosthodontist and surgeon is necessary to realize an individual, mucosa-relieving treatment for the patient.
Implants in patients with immunodeficiencies are therefore justified when strictly indicated and can lead to a rehabilitation of the physiological masticatory function, an increased quality of life, and a positive influence on the general state of health.
