Abstract
Statement of problem
Technical complication rates of standard metal-ceramic implant-supported posterior restorations are relatively high. Whether monolithic zirconia crowns represent a more successful alternative is unclear.
Purpose
The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare the clinical outcomes of posterior monolithic zirconia and metal-ceramic implant-supported single crowns.
Material and methods
A search was conducted in MEDLINE, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and CENTRAL databases for randomized controlled trials up to April 2023 with a follow-up time of at least 1 year. Restoration and implant survival and failure rates, marginal bone loss (MBL), bleeding on probing (BOP), and technical complications were analyzed by 2 reviewers. Statistical analyses were conducted using the R-statistics software program. The risk of bias was assessed by the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool 2 (RoB 2), and the certainty of evidence by the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach.
Results
A total of 11 out of 2030 records were identified by title and abstract, and 4 records were included after full-text analysis. The statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in MBL (MD –0.11, 95% CI: [–0.25; 0.03]), BOP (OR 0.66, 95% CI: [0.25; 1.77]), or implant failure (OR 1.30, 95% CI: [0.24; 7.08]). Monolithic zirconia presented significantly less chipping over 1 year (OR 0.17, 95% CI: [0.03; 0.99]). The chipping rate was 0% for monolithic zirconia and 7.61% for metal-ceramic. Based on a narrative review, the restoration survival rate was 97.5% in the monolithic zirconia group and 99.1% in the metal-ceramic group.
Conclusions
Monolithic zirconia showed favorable short-term survival rates and had significantly less chipping over 1 year. Regarding MBL, BOP, and failure rates, both restoration types presented similar results at the 1-year follow-up.
