Resumen

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) comprises a group of hereditary disorders characterized by mechanical fragility of the skin and mucous membranes, with the development of blisters and vesicles in response to minimum tissue friction. Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) with generalized involvement is the most common subtype in the oral cavity. The present study was carried out to investigate dental implant survival, peri-implant tissue condition, patient satisfaction, and the impact of treatment upon the quality of life of patients with RDEB rehabilitated with implants and full-arch implant-supported prostheses. Thirteen patients with RDEB underwent dental implant treatment between September 2005 and December 2016. A retrospective study was made to analyze implant survival, peri-implant tissue health and patient satisfaction. A total of 80 implants were placed (42 in the maxilla and 38 in the mandible) in 13 patients between 20-52 years of age and diagnosed with RDEB. All the implants were rehabilitated on a deferred basis with 20 full-arch prostheses. Fifteen fixed prostheses and 5 implant-supported overdentures were placed. The implant survival rate was 97.5% after a mean follow-up of 7.5 years after prosthetic loading. Fifty percent of the implants showed mucositis at the time of evaluation. Probing depth was maintained at 1-3 mm in 96.2% of the implants, and bleeding upon probing was observed in 67.5% of the implants. There was a high prevalence of bacterial plaque (85%). The treatment of edentulous patients with RDEB by means of implants and implant-supported prostheses is predictable as evidenced by the high success rate, and improves patient self-esteem and quality of life.
