Description

Nicole Winitsky and three co-authors test fine mouth control in patients with a single front tooth implant. Each patient did a hold and split task twice, once with a small fixed bridge and once with the implant. Four tooth spots were tested in all.

Control at the implant was worse than at a free tooth on most scores, and much like control at the fake tooth in a bridge. Linking a tooth in a bridge did not hurt control. The work helps dentists set fair hopes for how implants feel in fine mouth tasks.
