Abstract
- The results of implant therapy for the functional rehabilitation of tumor-patients are presented and discussed. It can be shown, that mandibular implants without osteoplasty show a similar low failure rate of about five percent as implants used in a control group of edentulous patients. Implants used in conjunction with osteoplasty and maxillary implants show a less favourable prognosis. Because of special problems and possible complications, especially in irradiated patients, we suggest a restrictive indication for implantations and a close follow-up of the patients.
