Total edentulousness can lead to chewing problems as well as to feelings of insecurity and inferiority and considerable psycho-social problems. For many people a conventional removable denture is unsatisfactory. A new method - osseointegration - involves a titanium screw being operated into the jawbone and the attachment of a fixed bridge. In a controlled study, 26 patients were examined pre- and postoperatively 3 months and then 2 years after the insertion of a jawbone-anchored bridge. The majority of them state that there has been a significant improvement in their lives, that they have regained confidence in themselves, and that, in contrast to a conventional denture, they accept the fixed bridge as part of their body. More attention should be focused on psychological reactions to total edentulousness. Individuals who cannot be rehabilitated by means of conventional prosthetic procedures should be given the opportunity of having a jawbone-anchored bridge inserted. Such treatment means an odontological and psycho-social restitutio ad integrum.
全口无牙会导致咀嚼问题，以及不安全感和自卑感，并引发相当多的心理社会问题。对许多人来说，传统的可摘义齿并不令人满意。一种新方法——骨整合——包括将钛螺丝植入颌骨并连接固定桥。在一项对照研究中，对26名患者在植入颌骨固定桥前、术后3个月以及术后2年进行了检查。他们中的大多数人表示，生活有了显著改善，重新获得了自信，而且与传统义齿不同，他们接受固定桥成为身体的一部分。应更多关注对全口无牙的心理反应。对于那些无法通过传统修复程序康复的个体，应给予植入颌骨固定桥的机会。这种治疗意味着牙科学和心理社会层面的完全恢复。
