Background and Significance Dental implants are a widely accepted treatment modality. Questions exist regarding complications associated with dental implants. Systematic reports of implant complications and associated risk factors are limited.
3
Specific Aims Specific Aim 1: To identify complications associated with dental implants. Specific Aim 2: To estimate the frequency of implant complications. Specific Aim 3: To identify risk factors associated with implant complications.
4
Hypothesis We hypothesize that we will identify risk factors associated with implant complications that may be modified by the clinician to enhance patient outcome.
5
Materials and Methods Study Design: Retrospective cohort Sample: Patients having > one Bicon ® implant placed at the Implant Dentistry Centre (IDC), Faulkner Hospital (Boston, MA) between 1992 and 2000 Randomly selected one implant per patient for study inclusion
6
Study Variables Predictor Variables (Risk Factors) Demographic - gender - age Medical - ASA status - tobacco use
7
Anatomic –implant location (maxilla vs. mandible, anterior vs. posterior) –bone quality (1-4) –implant proximity to teeth or implants Implant Specific –implant diameter and length –well size –implant coating –implant staging –abutment diameter and angulation
8
Prosthetic –removable (overdenture) or fixed (crown/ bridge) Reconstructive –use of procedures/materials to enhance recipient site Other -perioperative antibiotic use
9
Study Variables (Cont’d) Outcome Variable –presence or absence of complications Complications grouped into three categories –inflammatory –prosthetic –operative
10
Inflammatory Complications - mobility -pain -infectious process -peri-implantitis -impaired wound healing -gingival recession
11
Prosthetic Complications –abutment fracture/loosening –O-ring damage requiring replacement less than twelve months after insertion of overdenture –occlusal or prosthetic adjustment more than two weeks after delivery of permanent restoration –recementation of loose prosthesis within two weeks of delivery
12
Operative complications –inadvertent placement of implant into sinus or submandibular space –paresthesia
13
Data Analysis Descriptive statistics and complication frequencies Analyses to identify candidate variables (risk factors) associated with complications (p<0.15) -univariate Cox proportional hazards regression model Identification of specific variables associated with complications (p< 0.05) -multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model
