Abstract
The bruxism is an oral parafunction characterized by occlusal overload contacts. The global management of bruxism patients may require a prosthetic rehabilitation whether it is fixed, removable or more recently implant-supported prostheses. The aim of our literature review is to evaluate the survival rate of implant-supported prostheses in patients with bruxism, to detail the different types of complications, and to develop recommendations to ensure the longevity of this type of prosthesis in this type of patient.
