Recent clinical reports have described the use of endosteal blade implants as abutment teeth for the fixed partial dentures and is foundamentally acceptable in practice. There has been, however, scant information regarding the healing process around the neck of implant where contact with soft tissue.

We have experienced a patient who had pain and disorder after worn the implant denture which was fixed partial denture constructed by a blade vent implant imbeded at the site of right canine as a abutment tooth.

Examination was revealed and determined the prognosis of implant denture was poor. Radiographically, resorption of alveolar bone was also noted at the under surface of the implant denture. After removal the implant with surrounding tissues, histopathological examination was made to determine the affect of the tissues under the implant denture.

The observation indicated that the implant was not passively accepted by tissues and these areas tissue did appear to show progressive changes with inflammatory reaction.

There must be some doubts as to whether dental implant may be carried out with better results rather than properly designed removable partial denture.
