Method This retrospective study included 52 patients with severe alveolar bone defects who underwent 3D‐PITM‐assisted guided bone regeneration (GBR) between January 2019 and August 2025, comprising 25 patients with mesh exposure and 27 without. Demographic characteristics and surgery‐related variables were collected; univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were performed to identify independent risk factors. Additionally, this study measured bone volume, bone height, and bone width at different time points to evaluate the impact of 3D‐PITM exposure on bone augmentation. Results The results showed that smoking, thin gingival biotype, and maxillary defects were significantly associated with mesh exposure ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.05): smoking (OR = 5.16, 95% CI: 1.28–20.82, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.021), thin gingival biotype (OR = 4.21, 95% CI: 1.05–16.82, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.042), and maxillary defects (OR = 11.49, 95% CI: 1.25–105.68, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.031). Regarding bone augmentation, the exposure group showed significantly greater resorption in bone volume ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.0063), height ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.0001), and width ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.0001) than the nonexposure group. Moreover, early exposure resulted in more severe bone loss than late exposure across bone volume ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.0048), height ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.0019), and width ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.0001). Conclusion This study found that 3D‐PITM exposure significantly impairs bone regeneration, with smoking, thin gingival biotype, and maxillary defects identified as independent risk factors. Preoperative identification of these risk factors may help reduce mesh exposure and improve bone augmentation outcomes.","PeriodicalId":10455,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Oral Implants Research","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148842924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objectives To compare the 5‐ and 10‐year survival and complication outcomes of tooth‐ and implant‐supported FDPs and to assess patient‐reported effects. Material and Methods This retrospective multicenter clinical study investigates patients treated with 3–5 units tooth‐supported fixed dental prostheses (TSFDPs) and 1–4 units implant‐supported FDPs in the posterior region at two specialist dental clinics (2009–2019) using clinical and radiographical examinations and Oral Health Impact Profile‐14 (OHIP‐14). Survival, biological, and technical complications as well as patient‐reported effects were recorded. Results A total of 180 patients with 238 FDPs: 113 TSFDPs, 71 implant‐supported crowns (ISCs), and 54 implant‐supported fixed partial prostheses (ISFPPs) were examined after a mean follow‐up of 10 years. The 5‐year cumulative survival rate for TSFDPs and implant‐supported FDPs was 98% ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.71). The 10‐year cumulative survival rates were 94% for TSFDPs and 93% for implant‐supported FDPs ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.87). Eight TSFDPs, three ISCs, and five ISFPPs failed. Biological complications were recorded in 24.8% of TSFDPs and in 9.6% of implant‐supported FDPs ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.012). Technical complications were recorded in 29.9% of TSFDPs and in 27% of implant‐supported FDPs ( <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.62). Low OHIP‐14 scores were reported in patients with tooth‐supported (4.8 ± 6.7), implant‐supported (3 ± 4.3), and with both types of FDPs (3.5 ± 3.6). Scores that indicate a good OHRQoL. Conclusion Tooth‐ and implant‐supported FDPs had high survival rates after 5 and 10 years. Biological complications had the highest impact on prostheses failure.","PeriodicalId":10455,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Oral Implants Research","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148768314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
