简要总结
Dental implants are a well-accepted treatment for replacing missing teeth, due to excellent patient satisfaction regarding function, aesthetics, and comfort, as well as their long-term survival. However, the accumulation of bacterial biofilm on implants changes their surface biocompatibility and initiates peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. Professional cleaning of the implant surface is necessary to remove the biofilm and facilitate healing within the surrounding tissue. Prophylaxis pastes can be used in dental clinics to assist the mechanical removal of biofilm by dental professionals. However, these pastes can contain abrasives that detrimentally affect the surface stability and chemical properties of the implant surfaces.
ImplanTreat® and Neophylaxis® are novel nanocrystal gels designed for implants' professional cleaning, under surgical and non-surgical procedures respectively. These products present high biocompatibility proprieties that can improve peri-implant bone healing. Moreover, they don't contain abrasives, or fluoride, which preserves the implant surfaces. The researchers hypothesize that professional implant cleaning with Neophylaxis® or ImplanTreat® results in a greater reduction of peri-implant inflammation and dental plaque accumulation in comparison to cleaning without any product. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to verify if Neophylaxis® and ImplanTreat® enhance the efficacy of professional cleaning and preserve implant surface roughness.
The researchers will randomly divide the recruited participant into two groups depending on the clinical diagnosis, each patient will be either recruited in peri-implant mucositis group (Group I), or in peri-implantitis group (Group II). Each patient in the group I will be assigned randomly to receive either implant cleaning with Neophylaxis® or cleaning without. Similarly, each patient in group II will be assigned randomly to receive either implant cleaning with ImplanTreat® or cleaning without. No participant will be aware of his allocation before the end of data collection. In each evaluation session, The researchers will examine the participants' implants and evaluate the removal of biofilm as well as the improvement of the peri-implant tissue health and bone level. The researchers will then analyze and compare the results obtained from each study group.
详细描述
Background:
Oral hygiene and regular maintenance are crucial to sustaining healthy peri-implant tissues. However, current available prophylaxis products and toothpaste tend to contaminate and abrade the surface of implants, due to the high affinity of humectants, thickeners and surfactants to the implant surface and the high abrasiveness of silica microparticles used in these products. Nanocrystalline magnesium phosphate (NMP) gel, a novel inorganic colloidal suspension, is the result of 7 years of research in Dr. Faleh Tamimi's laboratory in collaboration with researchers from McGill University. It is a hydrogel with unique biocompatibility that can improve peri-implant bone healing. The NMP gel forms highly stable inorganic colloidal suspensions with interesting rheological properties (i.e. thixotropy) that are ideal for toothpaste and prophylaxis paste applications and do not require the addition of organic thickeners. The product contains magnesium phosphate (3.02% w/v) and sodium phosphate (8.23% w/v) in 3 mL syringe.
Hypotheses (null):
Professional cleaning of implant surfaces with NMP prophylactic gel during maintenance visits will result in similar reductions of gum redness, bleeding and plaque scores after 4 weeks than implant surfaces cleaned without gel.
Professional cleaning with NMP treatment gel of implant surfaces diagnosed with peri-implantitis will result in similar reductions of peri-implant probing depth, bleeding, plaque scores and suppuration after 4 weeks, as well as improved bone levels after 6 months, compared to implant surfaces, cleaned without gel.
