Abstract
Ten male completely edentulous controlled type II diabetic patients were selected for this study. Each patient received two identical dental implants in the mandibular interforaminal regions, one installed in one side of the interforaminal region and left submerged for 4 months, then after 4 months this fixture exposed, and the other fixture installed in the other side, then the healing caps attached to the both fixtures for two weeks, then the implant ball abutment were connected to the implant fixtures. Clinical and radiographic evaluation was carried out for every patient. The radiographic evaluation is done by using CBCT to measure bone height and bone density changes around each implant. The clinical, radiographic evaluations suggested that dental implants could be used as a successful and predictable treatment to retain mandibular complete overdentures in controlled type II diabetic patients with a success rate 100% either immediately or delayed loade.
