A Retrospective Clinical Study Evaluating Full-Arch Monolithic Zirconia Implant Supported Fixed Dental Prosthesis

This study is designed to recall all patients who have received a full-arch monolithic
zirconia implant supported fixed dental prosthesis in the University of North Carolina (UNC)
School of Dentistry Graduate Prosthodontic and/or Dental Faculty Practice clinics between
January 1, 2008 to September 1, 2015. The main purpose is to evaluate the biological and
technical complications associated with this form of prosthetic treatment. Additionally
patient centered outcomes will be evaluated.

Purpose: A retrospective single-center study to provide scientific data on the clinical
performance of full-arch monolithic zirconia implant supported fixed dental prosthesis
(MZISFDP).

Participants: Individuals with at least one edentulous dental arch (maxilla/mandible) who
were treated in the UNC Graduate Prosthodontic clinic and Dental Faculty Practice between
January 1, 2008 to September 1, 2015 with full-arch MZISFDP.

Procedures (methods): This study is designed as a retrospective descriptive study with a
single prospective examination of a population of subjects previously restored with full-arch
MZISFDPs. An estimated 60 participants will be enrolled in the study. The study includes
retrospective data and radiograph collection from dental records as well as data collection
from one prospective visit that includes clinical examination, a panoramic radiograph and 2
patient questionnaires.
