Summary

The aims of this clinical study conducted at a dental specialty clinic in Drammen, Norway are to assess the clinical outcomes of patients with an edentate upper jaw having been treated with a removable full prosthesis supported by 3 implants to restore function and aesthetics. Clinical variables beyond implant dimensions and intraoral location, such as recall routines, maintenance needs, patient satisfaction and quality of life, will also be appraised and contrasted with an aim to elucidate their association with clinical outcomes. Specific evaluation will be done with regard to the following outcome criteria:

* crestal bone levels and periodontal conditions around implants
* incidence rates of biological, technical, traumatic failures / complications related to implants
* incidence rates of biological, technical, mechanical, esthetic failures/complications with prosthesis and prosthetic components A secondary objective is to identify the different risk factors for biological failures / complications, including the influence of medical conditions and tobacco use.
