Tooth-Implant Connection: A Review

Table 2

Success rate of Implant and tooth-implant supported prosthesis.

Author	Type of case	𝑛	Time	Observation
Akça et al. [22]	3-unit bridge	34	24 months	Success rate: 100%; The bone level is stable
Block et al. [26]	3-unit bridge	60	5 years	Success rate: 90.6% abutment loss; Rigid results are better than nonrigid; There are no differences between bone loss around the implants
Brägger et al. [18]	Various	18	4-5 years	Success rate: 97.5% (implant supported); Success rate: 95% tooth-implant supported prosthesis
Clarke et al. [27]	3-unit bridge	1	32 months	Success rate: 100%
Ericsson et al. [35]	Various	10	6–30 months	Success rate: 100%
Gunne et al. [23]	3-unit bridge	20	10 years	Success rate: 85.1% (tooth-implant supported prosthesis); There is no difference between implant-implant and tooth-implant supported prosthesis
Jemt et al. [21]	Various	20	15 years	Success rate: 98.7%
Kindberg et al. [34]	Various	41	14 weeks–9 years	Success rate: 92.85%
Lindh et al. [36]	Various	123	more than 15 years	Success rate: 98.4% (implant supported); Success rate: 94.9% (tooth-implant supported prosthesis); There are more technical problems at tooth-implant supported prosthesis
