Summary

22 Patients having lower completely edentulous mandible aged 55-60 years were selected from the outpatient dental clinic of the Medical Excellence Centre of the National Research (NRC) Cairo, Egypt. Six dental implants were inserted in the mandible of each patient. The patients were randomly categorized into two groups according to the final restoration.

Detailed description

Group I: received a complete removable mandibular implant supported overdenture. While Group II: received implant supported fixed bridge. Occlusal equilibrations, Muscle activities, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) were assessed by at the time of prosthesis insertion, after one and three month.

Conditions

• Occlusion

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	dental implants (K1 line conical connection double thread, OXY, Italy)	Six dental implants inserted on the edentulous mandible
DEVICE	Occlusense (Bausch GmbH & Co. KG)	sensor used to evaluate the equilibration of occlusal forces.
DEVICE	electromyography (EMG) (Nemus II)".	EMG recordings were accomplished by a computer electromyography-based data acquisition system
OTHER	oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL)	Oral Health-related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) was estimated by employing the Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire which comprises nineteen multiple questions that were translated into Arabic.
