Abstract
Patients' expectations may influence their satisfaction with implant
treatment, but there is a paucity of reports comparing patient expectations and their
posttreatment satisfaction.
The aim was to compare patients' expectations before with their satisfactionregarding function and esthetics after dental implant therapy.
Fifty volunteers (49 years ± 11.45) answered a questionnaire
about influencing variables and underwent an initial examination followed by implant therapy.
Their expectations regarding esthetics and function were verified on a visual analogue scale
(VAS) before treatment. The VAS was also used for posttreatment completion rating.
The average ratings for esthetic and functional expectations were 5.0 ± 2.6 and
5.0 ± 3.0; the posttreatment completion ratings were 9.1 ± 1.1 and 9.0 ± 1.7, respectively. The
posttreatment completion ratings significantly exceeded expectations (p < .001, Wilcoxon test).
Positive correlations were found between expectations and posttreatment completion ratings for
esthetics (Spearman's rho = 0.496, p < .001) and function (Spearman's rho = 0.706, p < .001).
An inverse correlation was found between age and functional expectations (Spearman's rho =
-0.313, p = .027).
Patients' posttreatment completion ratings significantly exceeded their initial
expectations. Expectations and posttreatment completion ratings were irrespective of smoking
habits, location in the jaw, sex, or educational level.
