In clinical practice using implants, the management of residual teeth is sometimes a problem. In particular, in patients with a bone anchored full bridge, the method of allowing coexistence of the residual teeth and the implant is a problem.
There have been no studies on long-term observation of such cases. The management method for the residual teeth varies among operators and cases.
We observed serial changes in residual teeth connected with an implant prosthesis·bone anchored full bridge in 3 cases and evaluated the clinical usefulness of this method.
