Abstract
PURPOSE To determine postoperative periodontal and radiographic factors that predict the survival rates of abutments of removable partial dentures (RPDs). METHODS Patients who wore RPDs for > 10 years and received supportive periodontal therapy were included. Periodontal examinations and radiographic assessments were conducted on 83 abutment teeth in 35 patients at baseline, and five years after RPD insertion. In addition to conventional factors, such as tooth mobility at 5 years, radiographic factors, such as the crown-root ratio (ΔCR ratio) and gray-level changes reflecting changes in alveolar bone density (ΔABD), were evaluated. The impact of the covariables on the 10-year survival of abutment teeth was estimated using a multivariate Cox regression model, considering multicollinearity. RESULTS Patients were classified as having A2-B2 (45.7%) and B3-C2 (54.3%) tooth loss, according to the Eichner classification. A probing depth ≥ 4 mm, tooth mobility ≥ grade 1, and CR ratio ≥ 1 were found in 30.1%, 33.7%, and 51.8% of abutment teeth, respectively. The 10-year survival rate of abutment teeth was 86.7%. Multivariate analysis showed that the 10-year survival of abutment teeth was significantly associated with root canal treatment (P = 0.045, hazard ratio [HR] = 1.23), the 5-year ΔCR ratio (P = 0.022, HR = 3.20), and ΔABD on the edentulous side of the abutment teeth (P = 0.047, HR = 1.08). CONCLUSIONS In addition to root canal treatment, changes in the CR ratio and radiographic alveolar bone density at five years predicted the long-term survival rate of RPD abutments.

Braz Dent J 2023; 34:66-72. [PMID: 37466527 PMCID: PMC10355257 DOI: 10.1590/0103-6440202305352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the osseointegration of a hydrophilic surface (blasting + acid etching + immersion in isotonic solution) in comparison with that of a control surface (blasting + acid etching) using an experimental model of low-density bone. To perform the study, 24 rabbits were submitted to the installation of 4 implants in the iliac bone bilaterally: 2 implants with a control surface and 2 implants with a hydrophilic surface. The rabbits were euthanized at 2, 4, and 8 weeks after implant installation. After euthanasia, one implant from each surface was used to perform the removal torque analysis, and the other implant was used for the execution of non-decalcified histological sections and evaluation of the bone implant contact (% BIC) as well as the fraction of bone tissue area between the implant threads (% BBT). The implants with a hydrophilic surface presented higher %BIC (42.92 ± 2.85% vs. 29.49 ± 10.27%) and % BBT (34.32 ± 8.52% vs. 23.20 ± 6.75%) (p < 0.05) in the 2-week period. Furthermore, the hydrophilic surface presented higher removal torque in the 8-week period (76.13 ± 16.00 Ncm2 vs. 52.77 ± 13.49 Ncm2) (p<0.05). Implants with a hydrophilic surface exhibited acceleration in the process of osseointegration, culminating in greater secondary stability in low-density bone than in implants with a control surface.

Abstract
Objective. This research aimed to analyze the differences in bone density and bone morphometry by periapical implant radiography in the dental implant osseointegration stages. Methods. This experimental research uses 12 periapical radiographs of tibial bones from a New Zealand white rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The analysis was performed on day 3, 14, and 28 of the osseointegration stages with density, trabecular thickness (Tb.Th.), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp.), and trabecular number (Tb.N.) as parameters. The implant used is a titanium alloy and coated by SA (sunblasted with alumina acid) of 4 mm in diameter and 7 mm in length. The radiographic assessment of the osseointegration process is obtained with the region of interest (ROI) segmentation results. Additionally, each ROI was analyzed for bone density and morphometry using the open-source ImageJ software with the BoneJ plugin. The significant difference was evaluated by analysis of variance (F-test) with
and nonparametric Kruskal–Wallis test with
. Results. Analysis of the osseointegration images of dental implants at day 3, 14, and 28 with the periapical X-ray modality shows significant differences (
) in the parameters measuring density and trabecular thickness (Tb.Th.). In the variables of trabecular separation (Tb.Sp.) and number (Tb.N.) (
), there is no significant difference. Conclusion. Based on the results, density and trabecular thickness (Tb.Th.) showed a significant difference between healing times. However, trabecular separation (Tb.Sp.) and trabecular number (Tb.N.) showed no difference in healing time.

Abstract
Aim The aim of this study was to compare and assess bone density changes around immediate functionally and nonfunctionally loaded implants. Settings and design In vivo comparative study. Materials and Methods Sixty participants selected based on the predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria received single tooth implants in mandible under two implant loading protocols: Immediate functionally loaded (IFL) and immediate nonfunctionally loaded (INFL). Randomization was done by computer-aided simple randomization procedure. Self-tapering, aggressive SLA implants were placed in the single tooth edentulous sites of mandible in both the groups. Three-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (3D CBCT) was taken at baseline, 3 and 6 months postimplant placement. Quantitative analysis of the bone density was performed using 3D CBCT in three areas around the implants at crestal, middle, and apical regions of implants. Statistical Analysis Used Quantitative data were summarized as mean ± standard deviation. Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS software version 21.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) by unpaired t-test. Results Bone density changes after implant placement in IFL group from baseline to 3 months were; crestal region (314.18 ± 71.69), middle (278.23 ± 70.17), apical (274.70 ± 59.79) and changes from 3 to 6 months were; crestal (-105.55 ± 39.60), middle (-114.80 ± 41.46), apical (-141.88 ± 69.58). Bone density changes after implant placement in INFL group from baseline to 3 months were crestal region (199.42 ± 47.97), middle (56.91 ± 10.39), apical (200.98 ± 67.43) and changes from 3 to 6 months were; crestal (-194.38 ± 75.30), middle (-204.40 ± 63.75), apical (-191.28 ± 62.33). Conclusions It was concluded that INFL implant group showed better bone density when compared to IFL implant group.

Abstract
Dental implants are important tools for restoring the loss of teeth. The rapid growth and periodic regeneration of antlers make Sika deer a good and less invasive alternative model for studying bone remodelling in mammals. We developed a special loading device for antlers and analysed the bone reaction around unloaded implants and under immediate loading conditions until osseointegration occurred. In micro-computed tomography images, the density of antler tissue around the implants increased as the loading time increased. This finding was histologically confirmed by the good osseointegration observed in unloaded and loaded specimens. Antler tissue displays a similar healing process to human bone. The use of an antler model is a promising alternative for implant studies that does not require animal sacrifice.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare biomechanical characteristics of immediately loaded (IL) and osseointegrated (OS) dental implants inserted into Sika deer antler and lay a foundation for developing an alternative animal model for dental implants studies. Two implants per antler were inserted. One implant was loaded immediately via a self-developed loading device; the other was submerged and unloaded as control. IL implants were harvested after different loading periods. The unloaded implants were collected after OS and the shedding of antler. Specimens were scanned by µCT scanner and finite element models were generated. A vertical force of 10 N was applied on the implant. The mean values of maximum displacements, stresses and strains were compared. The results showed that the density of antler tissue around the implants dramatically increased as the loading time increased. After shedding the antler, 3 pairs of antlers were collected and the density of antler tissue remained in a similar value in all specimens. The maximum values of displacement and stresses in implant and stresses and strains in antler tissue were significantly different among OS models. In one antler, all the biomechanical parameters of IL model were significantly higher than those of OS model of the same animal (P < 0.05) and wider distributions were obtained from IL model. It can be concluded that implants inserted into Sika deer antler might not disturb the growth and calcification process of antler and the use of Sika deer antler model is a promising alternative for implant studies that does not require animal sacrifice.

Abstract
This study combines finite element method and animal studies, aiming to investigate tissue remodelling processes around dental implants inserted into sika deer antler and to develop an alternative animal consuming model for studying bone remodelling around implants. Implants were inserted in the antlers and loaded immediately via a self-developed loading device. After 3, 4, 5 and 6 weeks, implants and surrounding tissue were taken out. Specimens were scanned by μCT scanner and finite element models were generated. Immediate loading and osseointegration conditions were simulated at the implant-tissue interface. A vertical force of 10 N was applied on the implant. During the healing time, density and Young's modulus of antler tissue around the implant increased significantly. For each time point, the values of displacement, stresses and strains in the osseointegration model were lower than those of the immediate loading model. As the healing time increased, the displacement of implants was reduced. The 3-week immediate loading model (9878 ± 1965 μstrain) illustrated the highest strains in the antler tissue. Antler tissue showed similar biomechanical properties as human bone in investigating the bone remodelling around implants, therefore the use of sika deer antler model is a promising alternative in implant biomechanical studies.
