This study evaluated patients' expectation before and satisfaction after full-arch fixed implant-prosthesis rehabilitation. Other variables that could influence patient satisfaction with this therapy were also evaluated. Using a visual analog scale (VAS), a sample of 28 patients assigned scores for their expectation before and satisfaction after therapy regarding chewing, esthetics, comfort, and phonetics. They also completed a questionnaire concerning their evaluation of the dentists' conduct. The average VAS scores were high for both expectation prior to treatment and satisfaction after treatment, and there was no statistical difference between them. Women presented higher expectations than men regarding esthetics (P = 0.040), phonetics (P = 0.043) and comfort (P = 0.013). Significant differences were not found between VAS scores with clinical variables (arch, radiographic bone quality, surgical bone quality, and implant inclination), educational level, and patients' evaluation of the dentists' conduct. Considering the results obtained in this study, expectation before implant-supported, full-arch fixed prosthesis therapy were met following treatment, with women having higher expectations than men.
本研究评估了全牙弓固定种植修复前后患者的期望和满意度。还评估了其他可能影响患者对该治疗满意度的变量。采用视觉模拟量表（VAS），28名患者样本针对治疗前后在咀嚼、美观、舒适度和语音方面的期望和满意度进行评分。他们还完成了一份关于对牙医行为评价的问卷。治疗前期望和治疗后满意度的平均VAS评分均较高，且两者之间无统计学差异。女性在美观（P = 0.040）、语音（P = 0.043）和舒适度（P = 0.013）方面的期望高于男性。VAS评分与临床变量（牙弓、放射学骨质量、手术骨质量和种植体倾斜度）、教育水平以及患者对牙医行为的评价之间未发现显著差异。考虑到本研究获得的结果，种植支持的全牙弓固定修复治疗前的期望在治疗后得到了满足，女性的期望高于男性。
