RESUMO
Objective@# To explore the early failure of narrow-diameter implants (NDIs) and to provide a reference for clinical implant restoration.@*Methods@# From April 2017 to April 2020, data from a total of 725 patients (with 1 001 NDIs) who accepted implant restoration due to dentition defects were collected from the department of dental implantology in a stomatological hospital; 353 males and 372 females were included. The early failure rate of 1 001 NDIs was retrospectively analyzed. Univariate generalized estimated equation (GEE) and multivariate GEE were used to explore risk factors, including age, sex, implant location, materials, surface modification, length, bone augmentation and healing procedure, associated with early failure of NDIs.@*Results@#There were 34 cases of early failure among 725 patients, including 38 NDIs. The early failure rate of NDIs was 4.69% at the patient level and 3.80% at the implant level. There was no significant difference in the early failure rate of NDIs among different age groups, sexes, implant materials, surface modifications, lengths, and healing procedures (P>0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the early failure rate of NDIs in the anterior maxilla group (2.16%) and the anterior mandible group (8.64%) at the implant level (P<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the early failure rate between the anterior maxilla group and the posterior group (3.35%) (P>0.05). In addition, in the anterior region, the early failure rate of NDIs in the group with simultaneous bone augmentation was significantly lower than that of the group without bone augmentation (P<0.05). However, multivariate GEE analysis showed that the early failure rate of NDIs was only significantly positively correlated with implants in the mandibular anterior region (P<0.01). @*Conclusion @#The overall early survival rate of Straumann 3.3 mm NDIs is greater than 95%. The early failure of NDIs in the anterior mandible region is much higher than that in the anterior maxilla region and posterior region.
RESUMO
Objective:To assess the clinical efficacy of two different diameter Osstem MS one-stage implant restoration of small edentu-lous space in the mandibular anterior region.Methods:85 patients were treated by Osstem MS one-stage implant with the diameter of 2.5 mm(n =66)and 3.0 mm(n =66)respectively for the restoration of small edentulous space in mandibular anterior region.The mesi-al and distal marginal bone level and soft tissue were statistically analyzed after 1 2 and 24 months of functional load.The implant survival rate was evaluated according to Wheeler's survival criteria.Results:The survival rate of the implants was 1 00%.The mean changes in marginal bone level(mm)on the mesial side of 2.5 mm and 3.0 mm diameter implants were 0.275 ±0.638 and 0.098 ±0.31 9,distal aspects were 0.360 ±0.588 and 0.1 09 ±0.323 after 1 2 months of functional load;while 0.299 ±0.672 and 0.099 ±0.31 8,0.381 ± 0.581 and 0.1 07 ±0.31 9 after 24 months of functional load.The mesial and distal marginal bone loss of 2.5 mm diameter implant was greater than that of 3.0 mm after 1 2 and 24 months of functional load(P 0.05).No relevant complication of peri-implant soft tissue was shown.Conclusion:Favorable clinical effects including function and aesthetics can be achieved by Osstem MS one-stage implant with the diameter of 2.5 mm or 3.0 mm for the restoration of small edentulous space in the mandibular anterior region,however,the mar-ginal bone loss was greater around 2.5 mm diameter implant.
