ABSTRACT

Tooth loss is an undesirable condition that leads to functional, esthetic and social damage, having an impact on an individual's quality of life. Dental implants are man-made tooth root replacements that are increasingly used to replace a missing tooth. It is important to gather demographic data in order to take precautions before the possible failures. Hence the objective of this study was to retrospectively determine the association between age, gender, and site of implant placement in patients reporting to a private dental institution. This study was carried out from the data obtained from the case records of 1281 patients who had undergone implant therapy. Chi-square test was applied to see associations of gender, age and implant site. The results show that a maximum number of 348 implants (27.7%) were placed in patients aged between 41-50 years. The patient pool consisted of 705 (55%) females and 576 (45%) males. A maximum of 228 implants (17.80%) were placed in region 46 and 224 implants (17.49%) in region 36. Only 2 implants (0.2%) were placed in region 41. There was a positive association between age, gender and site of implant. In those aged 20-30 years, 20.53% of implants were placed, 26.23% in 31-40 years, 27.1% in 41-50 years, 17.95% in 51-60 years and 8.11% in 61-70 years of age. In male, a maximum of 124 implants (54.4%) were placed in region 46 and only 1 implant (50%) in region 41. In females, region 36 had a maximum of 110 implants (49.1%), and the least number of implants were placed in regions 31 and 41. In this study, it can be concluded that general factors such as age and gender had a significant effect on the site of implant placement.
