| Summary: | Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the radiographic bone loss and soft tissue parameters around one stage
and two stage implants.
Materials and Methods: Twenty four patients with submerged
implants and twenty four patients with non submerged implants
at the time of loading were assessed in this prospective cohort
study. The soft tissue assessment included probing depth (PD),
papilla index (PI), mucosal thickness (MT) and keratinized tissue
(KG); another parameter assessed was the radiographic distance
between the shoulder of the implant and alveolar crest evaluated
at baseline (loading time) and 3,6 and 12 months after loading
in both groups.Data were analysed using repeated measures
analysis of variance (ANOVA) and multiple comparisons were done
using LSD method.
Results: The changes in the soft tissues including PD, KG, MT
and PI had no significant differences in either group. The amount
of bone loss 3 and 6 months after loading was significantly greater
in one stage implants (0.93±0.45 mm at 3months and1.45±0.58
mm at 6months, for one stage and 0.32±0.21 mm at 3months and
0.74±0.43 mm at 6 months for two stage group). But the change
of this index 12 months later was not significantly different between
the two groups (1.87±0.76mm for one stage and 1.65±0.59mm
for two stage group).
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study there is no
difference in hard and soft tissue changes one year after loading
of one or two stage implants. |
