THE EFFICIENCY OF CUSTOM DENTAL IMPLANTS IN MANAGING ORAL COMPLICATIONS OF CROHN’S DISEASE

This paper examines the effectiveness of custom dental implants in managing oral complications associated with Crohn’s disease, an inflammatory bowel condition that can significantly affect patients’ oral health. By reviewing the existing literature and studying clinical cases, we analyze the success rates of dental implants, their integration in the context of immunosuppressive treatments, the improvement of masticatory function, and their impact on the quality of life of patients. Reviewed studies indicate that, with proper planning and careful postoperative management, dental implants can provide a durable and effective solution for patients with Crohn’s disease, with success rates comparable to those of the general population. We also discuss the importance of an interdisciplinary approach in the planning and implementation of personalized dental treatments, as well as the need for continuous monitoring to prevent complications. The results highlight the potential of dental implants to significantly improve oral functionality and aesthetics, thus contributing to the overall improvement of the quality of life of patients with Crohn’s disease. These findings encourage greater attention to the personalization of dental treatments for this category of patients, given the complexity of managing their health condition.
