چکیده

BACKGROUND A great number of different treatment protocols for peri-implantitis have been suggested but there is no consensus regarding the most effective intervention. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term clinical and radiographic results from a study on peri-implant osseous defect reconstruction. Patients having participated in a randomized clinical study 7 years earlier were invited for a re-examination. The treatment procedures included open flap debridement (OFD) with or without defect reconstruction with porous titanium granules (PTGs). Clinical parameters (probing pocket depth and bleeding on probing) and radiographic measurements were registered. FINDINGS Of the original 32 patients, 12 patients with 12 implants were finally examined after 7 years (7.3 years [6.7-8]). Patients had been maintained one to two times yearly. The PTG group showed a mean probing pocket depth of 4.3 mm ± 2.4 compared with 3.5 mm ± 1.2 in the OFD group, at the deepest site. The change between the 12 months and the 7-year examination was similar in both groups. Five of the test implants and five of the control implants had at least one site with positive bleeding on probing score. The mean radiographic defect depth change as compared to 12 months was an increase of 1.9 mm ± 2.0 in the PTG group and a mean radiographic defect depth increase of 1.3 mm ± 1.4 in the OFD group. Due to the small number of patients, a statistical analysis was not performed, but the results indicated a minimal difference in osseous defect depth as compared with baseline and between groups. No PTG exposed to the oral cavity was observed, but the graft particles were seemingly scattered in the peri-implant soft tissue. CONCLUSIONS This long-term follow-up of surgical treatment of peri-implant osseous defects showed unpredictable results.

Reconstruction of Peri-implant Osseous Defects: A Multicenter Randomized Trial.

There is a paucity of data for the effectiveness of reconstructive procedures in the treatment of peri-implantitis. The objective of this study was to compare reconstruction of peri-implant osseous defects with open flap debridement (OFD) plus porous titanium granules (PTGs) compared with OFD alone. Sixty-three patients (36 female, 27 male; mean age 58.4 y [SD 12.3]), contributing one circumfer...

Porous Titanium Granules and Blood for Bone Regeneration around Dental Implants: Report of Four Cases and Review of the Literature

A regenerative procedure treating a local osseous defect around titanium dental implant using porous titanium granules is described in four patients. Porous titanium granules represent, for maxillofacial surgery, a new alternative in augmenting osseous defects. Its earliest application was in the field of orthopedics for stabilization of tibia plateau fractures and for reoperations in prostheti...

Determining the prevalence of peri-implantitis in patients one year after prosthetic loading in Khorramabad in 2021

Background and Aims: Although dental implants have become a successful and predictable ong-term treatment for patients, not all implant treatments are necessarily successful and pre-implant diseases are spreading. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of peri-implantitis in patients one year after prosthetic loading in Khorramabad in 2021. Materials and Methods: In this cross-s...

Investigation of peri-implant tissue conditions and peri-implant tissue stability in implants placed with simultaneous augmentation procedure: a 3-year retrospective follow-up analysis of a newly developed bone level implant system

BACKGROUND Guided bone regeneration (GBR) has been proven to be a reliable therapy to regenerate missing bone in cases of atrophy of the alveolar crest. The aim of the present retrospective analysis was to assess peri-implant tissue conditions and document peri-implant tissue stability in C-Tech implants when placed simultaneously with a GBR augmentation procedure. METHODS A total of 47 impla...
