Failure rates of mini-implants placed in the infrazygomatic region

چکیده
BACKGROUND The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the failure rates of mini-implants placed in the infrazygomatic region and to evaluate factors that affect their stability. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of 30 consecutive patients (55 mini-implants) who had infrazygomatic mini-implants at a University Clinic were evaluated for failure rates. Patient, mini-implant, orthodontic, surgical, and mini-implant maintenance factors were evaluated by univariate logistic regression models for association to failure rates. RESULTS A 21.8 % failure rate of mini-implants placed in the infazygomatic region was observed. None of the predictor variables were significantly associated with higher or lower odds for failed implants. CONCLUSIONS Failure rates for infrazygomatic mini-implants were slightly higher than those reported in other maxilla-mandibular osseous locations. No predictor variables were found to be associated to the failure rates.

Background : Although factors such as implant length, location, and diameter as well as bone quality have been associated with excessive failure rates, smoking is suggested as a stronger predisposing factor for higher failure rates. Thus, knowing the relationship between bone loss around the dental implants, maintenance of the implants and smoking could be a principle step towards solving the...

متن کاملReasons for mini-implants failure: choosing installation site should be valued!
Mini-implant loss is often associated with physical and mechanical aspects that result from choosing an inappropriate placement site. It is worth highlighting that: a) Interdental alveolar bone crests are flexible and deformable. For this reason, they may not offer the ideal absolute anchorage. The more cervical the structures, the more delicate they are, thus offering less physical support for...
متن کاملSkeletal Anchorage using Mini-implants in the Maxillary Tuberosity Region
Anchorage conservation has always been a challenge in orthodontics especially in cases requiring group movement of teeth. The drawbacks of conventional anchorage conservation methods like headgears and intermaxillary elastics have been overcome with the advent of skeletal anchorage. Mini-implants which have been proved successful in several intraoral locations for anchorage, can also be success...
