AB  - OBJECTIVES: The frequent instability of mandibular removable complete dentures 
      causes an alteration of mastication. An innovative therapeutic strategy involves 
      placing four symphyseal mini implants. This study aimed at assessing the 
      development of masticatory parameters and the impact on quality of life in 
      subjects that underwent this procedure. METHODS: Eleven edentulous subjects (mean 
      age 72+/-11 years) with unstable mandibular complete dentures were followed-up 
      before (T0) and two - three months after (T1) mini implant setting. Physiological 
      parameters (number of cycles, duration of sequence and frequency of mastication) 
      during the mastication of food models and the bolus median particle size (d50) of 
      carrot were evaluated at each time. Quality of life was assessed at T0 and T1 
      using the Global Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI). Parametric tests were used 
      to test relationships between mastication, quality of life variations and mini 
      implant setting, and to compare each parameter mean value at times T0 and T1. 
      RESULTS: More subjects were able to chew carrot after setting the mini implants 
      (8 subjects compared to 4 at T0). This improvement was accompanied by changes in 
      kinematic parameters when chewing carrots, soft and hard model food, and by an 
      improvement of their quality of life. However, the particle size values observed 
      in the bolus remained higher than for normal dentate subjects (9.2+/-2.8mm). 
      CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that the placement of mini implants as 
      retentive elements for mandibular full dentures had a positive impact on 
      patients' masticatory function and quality of life. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The 
      placement of mini implants has a positive impact on the masticatory function and 
      oral health quality of life. The results suggest that this alternative procedure 
      can be used as a treatment option for patients unable to receive conventional 
      implants.
