The implant survival was 95.1%. The mean value of bone loss after 10 years was 1.07 mm. Peri-implantitis were noted at the 5-year follow-up for one patient with a previous history of periodontitis; this patient did not attend the 10-year follow-up. This study shows that sandblasted and acid-etched implants offers predictable long-term results as support for full-arch maxillary prostheses.
