THIS STUDY REPORTS THE SUCCESSFUL USE Of osseointegrated implants to replace teeth in patients whose periodontal disease has been categorized as recalcitrant. It includes partially and totally edentulous jaws. A total of 309 implants placed by two periodontists practicing in traditional office settings were included in the survey. Of the 132 mandibular implants, 4 failed, for a success rate of 97%; and 3 of the 177 maxillary implants failed, for a success rate of 98%. There were 21 implants placed in 1985; 38 in 1986 and 1987; 185 from 1988 to 1990; 42 in 1991; and 23 in 1992. The report includes 42 mandibular and 50 maxillary prostheses, none of which has failed. One female mandibular case was converted from 2 posterior free-standing to a full arch prosthesis when the anterior teeth failed periodontally. These results demonstrate that individuals with a strong susceptibility to periodontal disease can be treated successfully with osseointegrated implants.
