In recent years, implants have been widely used in dental and oral fields. Many investigators have reported the indication of implants. Most of these cases progressed well, but the others did not.
To investigate the patient's awareness of dental treatments for removal of dental implants, we mailed a questionnaire to 33 patients.
1. The rate of collected questionnaires was 81.8%.
2. 92.6% of the patients underwent treatments such as partial dentures after removal of the implants, but only 40% of the patients were satisfied with these treatments.
3. This investigation clarified that informed consent between the dentists and the patients was insufficient.
