Comparative Efficacy of Different Amoxicillin Dosing Regimens in Preventing Early Implant Failure-A Systematic Review with Network Meta-Analysis.


ABSTRACT: This systematic review and network meta-analysis aimed to assess the comparative efficacy and safety of antibiotics to prevent early implant failure in patients undergoing dental implant surgery.

Methods

The review was registered in PROSPERO [CRD42022319385]. A search was conducted for trials published in Medline, Cochrane, PubMed, and Scopus. A network meta-analysis was performed on the data from randomized controlled trials. Agents were ranked according to their effectiveness based on outcomes (implant failure, prosthetic failure, postsurgical complications, and adverse effects) using the surface under the cumulative ranking [SUCRA].

Results

A total of 15 articles were included in the quantitative analysis. When compared to the placebo, 2 g of amoxicillin given 1 h preoperatively (RR = 0.42 (95%CI: 0.27, 0.67)), 2 g of amoxicillin given 1 h preoperatively with postoperative 500 mg thrice for 5 days (RR = 0.36 (95%CI: 0.15, 0.87)), and post-operative amoxicillin with clavulanic acid 625 mg 3 times daily for 5 days (RR = 0.38 (95%CI: 0.16, 0.90)) were effective in reducing early implant failures. In addition, 2 g of amoxicillin given 1 h preoperatively (RR = 0.42 (95%CI: 0.25, 0.73)) was the only protocol that was significant in the pairwise meta-analysis results. However, sensitivity analysis, which excluded trials with a high risk of bias, showed that none of the protocols were statistically significant in reducing early implant failure.

Conclusions

A single 2 g dose of preoperative amoxicillin significantly reduces early implant failure in healthy individuals. More high-quality trials are required to establish this recommendation, as the quality of this evidence is weak.
