Abstract EN
Completely and partially edentulous patients with Sjogren’s syndrome (SS) experience severe hyposalivation, xerostomia, and considerable difficulty in using tissue-supported prosthesis.
This clinical paper describes the management, treatment, and 6-year follow-up of a patient diagnosed with SS type II, who uses corticosteroids and antihyperglycemic drugs.
The patient received restorative, periodontal, and surgical treatments followed by implant-supported fixed prosthesis.
Radiographic evaluation and probing depth showed gingival health and no bone loss after 6 years.
Treatment with implant-retained dental prosthesis greatly increased comfort and function, offering an alternative to patients with SS.
