Introduction: Edentulous patients with a severely resorbed mandible or maxilla often experience problems with conventional dentures, such as insufficient stability and retention, together with a decrease in chewing ability. Hence; we planned the present study to assess the complications associated with implant supported over dentures .Materials & methods: We planned the present study to retrospectively assess complications in patients rehabilitated with dental implant supported over-dentures. A total of 50 patients with 75 dentures were included in the present study. Follow-up records of the patients of the patients were analyzed by frequency and pattern of complications were recorded. All the results were analyzed by SPSS software. Results: A total of 50 patients were included in the present study. Out of 50, 40 patients were males while remaining were females. Denture fracture was the most common complication observed. Conclusion: Among partially edentulous patients, fewer complications are observed with denture fracture being the most common complication.
Key words: Complications, Implant, Over-denture.
