Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Dental implants have been accepted as a viable treatment option for completely and partially edentulous patients. The present study was conducted to assess risk factors of associated with dental implants. Materials & Methods: The present study was conducted in the department of Prosthodontics. It comprised of 880 dental implants. General information such as name, age, gender etc. was recorded. Signs of peri- implantitis and fractured implant segments were considered for implant failure. Results: Out of 880 dental implants, 520 were in males and 360 were in females. The difference was significant (P- 0.01). Males had 45 dental implant failures and females had 40 dental implants failures. The difference was non- significant (P> 0.05). Out of 85 implant failures, 10 were seen in bruxism, 15 in autoimmune disease, 12 in diabetics, 20 in smokers and 8 in periodontal diseases. The difference was significant (P- 0.01). Implant failures were seen in type I bone (15), type II (25), type III (30) and type IV (15). The difference was non- significant (P> 0.05). Conclusion: Dental implant failures are not uncommon. Systemic disease also associated with high implant failures. Bone quality is also risk factor for implant failures.
