Popis: Objectives To compare implant and prosthesis survival rates between full-arch immediate prostheses supported by 4 hydrophilic implants with bicortical anchorage and by 5 or 6 hydrophilic implants placed without bicortical anchorage. Material and methods The sample was retrospectively selected and comprised completely edentulous patients treated with full-arch immediate prostheses supported by Morse Taper hydrophilic implants. The selected patients were divided into four groups, according to the region of implant placement and type of anchorage. Differences in implant and prosthesis survival rates between groups, as well as the influence of bicortical anchorage on implant primary stability, were verified using Fisher's exact tests (significant at p Results The sample comprised 392 implants, 72 were placed in the maxilla with bicortical anchorage, and 85 were placed without. In the mandible, 140 implants were placed with and 95 were placed without bicortical anchorage. The follow-up period was up to 24 months. A 98.8% implant survival rate was observed for the group of implants placed without bicortical anchorage in the maxilla, and of 100% for the other groups. The overall implant survival rate was 99.7% (391 of 392 implants). Prosthesis survival rate was 100% for all groups. No differences were observed between groups with respect to implant and prosthesis survival rates. Significantly higher primary stability was observed for implants placed with bicortical anchorage in both jaws. Conclusion Predictable results and high survival rates were achieved within the period evaluated by the present retrospective study, with immediate full-arch prostheses when only four hydrophilic implants are placed bicortically.
