Abstract
The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the survival and success rates of
osseointegrated implants determined in longitudinal studies that conducted a follow-up
of at least 10 years. A broad electronic search was conducted in MEDLINE/PubMed and
the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) for relevant publications
in indexed journals, evaluating the clinical performance of dental implants. Using
inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers analyzed titles, abstracts, and complete
articles, prioritizing studies of the randomized clinical trial type. A total of 23
articles were included in this review. Ten prospective studies, nine retrospective
studies, and four randomized clinical trials, which evaluated 7711 implants, were
selected. The mean follow-up time of the studies included was 13.4 years. All of the
studies reported survival rates and mean marginal bone resorption values, with cumulative
mean values of 94.6% and 1.3 mm, respectively. Fourteen studies related success rates. Taking into consideration
the disparate outcome measures employed to assess dental implant performance and within
the limitations of this systematic review, we may affirm that osseointegrated implants
are safe and present high survival rates and minimal marginal bone resorption in the
long term.
