• Abstract: Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe the findings in the literature on Bite Force in patients rehabilitated with implant-retained Mandibular Overdentures and their clinical characteristics. Methodology: A search was performed in the PubMed, Scielo and Google Scholar databases with the following descriptors: (Bite Force (BF) AND implant mandibular overdentures (IMO), (edentulous mouth (EM), AND endosseous dental implantation (EDI), (mandibular overdentures (MO) AND functional parameters AND Bite Force assessment, AND (Dentistry, AND “overdenture treatment”)) and the respective Mesh terms they generated. The articles were selected from reading the title and abstract and included those that were in accordance with the objectives of this study. Selection criteria included any article written in English and discussing the topic of bite force in patients using implant-retained mandibular overdentures up to March 2023. Results: In the study by Müller et al.(2014)Maximum bite forces in patients with mandibular overdentures implant retained (18.0±17.36N) were greater than in patients with conventional complete dentures. However, Rismanchian et al.(2009)in a similar study observed a significantly greater bite force in patients with mandibular overdenture retained implant. Jofre et al.(2010)measured bite forces for patients who received mandibular overdentures supported by two mini-implants in the anterior region using a minimally invasive technique. Mean maximum bite forces after 5-7 months of implant insertion were 157- 226 (±90-130) N. compared to the Hasan et al.(2016)the ranges of bite forces before insertion of the implants were 80-122 N for the control group and 6688 N for the study group. Conclusions: A standardized method for measuring maximal pre- and post-treatment bite force, as well as an analysis of oral habits and conditions, would offer clinicians and 6 researchers a definitive risk assessment tool to verify the contribution of varying bite forces to failures with implant-supported prostheses.
