简要总结
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of definitive abutment connection at the time of implant placement on peri-implant bone levels and soft tissue changes in posterior maxilla and mandible regions.
详细描述
A total of 38 implants were placed in 17 patients with at least 2 missing posterior teeth in the maxilla or the mandible for this study. Each patient received 2 or 4 implants. A definitive prefabricated abutment (test group) was randomly connected to one implant at implant placement (T0) and left undisturbed throughout the duration of the study. On the other implant, a healing abutment (control group) was connected and subjected to go through three disconnections and reconnections at 3 months (T3), 6 months (T6), and 12 months (T12) after the implant placement. Throughout the study period (1 year), all implants remained unrestored. Marginal bone level changes (MBLC) were assessed using standardized periapical radiographs taken at T0 and T12. Peri-implant soft tissue parameters including the keratinized mucosa width and lingual mucosa thickness were also recorded and evaluated.

结局指标
主要结局
Changes in Peri-implant Marginal Bone Level Between Baseline (Implant Placement) and 1 Year Follow up
时间窗: At baseline (implant placement) and 1 year follow up
Standardized digital periapical radiographs were taken at baseline (implant placement) and at the 1-year follow-up using the long-cone paralleling technique with a custom jig. Peri-implant marginal bone levels were measured on both the mesial and distal aspects to assess bone loss. Changes in peri-implant marginal bone levels were calculated by comparing the measurements at the 1-year follow-up to the baseline values.
次要结局
- Changes in Keratinized Mucosa Width(At baseline (implant placement) and 1 year follow up)
- Changes in Lingual Mucosa Thickness(At baseline (implant placement) and 1 year follow up)
- Implant Success Rate According to the 2017 Classification Criteria Set by the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP)(12 months after surgical implantation)
