The Use of IMZ Osseointegrated Implants in Partially and Completely Edentulous Patients: Success and Failure Rates of 2,023 Implant Cylinders up to 60 + Months in Function

A total of 974 patients were treated with 2,023 IMZ implants. A variety of prosthodontic designs were utilized . These included replacement of single teeth, use as pier abutments, and for totally implant-supported prostheses. The implants were followed in function for 6 to 60 + months. Absolute success rates were 96. 4% and 98.4% in the maxilla and mandible, respectively. Cumulative success rates at the end of the study were 92.9% and 95.8% in the maxilla and mandible, respectively. The use of an intramobile element is also discussed.
