INCIDENCE OF PERI-MUCOSITIS AND PERI-IMPLANTITIS, IN OSSEOINTEGRATED IMPLANTS
Journal Title: International journal of ecosystems and ecology science (IJEES) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Peri-implant mucositis is clinically described as the inflammation of the peri-implant mucosa without bone loss; being the most important clinical diagnosis the presence of bleeding on probing (BOP). The aim of this prospective study was to assess the incidence of peri-implantmucositis and periimplantitis in patients with osseointegrated implants. This is a prospective study conducted at University “ALDENT” in Tirana, Albania over the period 2012-2015. The study was conducted on a cohort of 96 patients aged 23 to 65 years having undergone implant treatment, with a total number of 321. The incidence of peri-mucositis was 39.6% while the incidence of peri-implantitis was 20.8%. In peri-mucositis implants were recorded 50% free of plaque surfaces and 33% sites with bleeding on probing around natural teeth, wheres in peri-implantitis sites the bleeding on probing indicated 37% of the sites. Periimplant bone resorption did not exceed in any case one third of the implant height. Peri-implant probing did not show probing depth values higher than 5 mm. Special attention should be given to the standardization of the different criteria applied, as: follow-up time intervals and the criteria used to differentiate health from diseased sites.
