Biomechanical and Histological Analysis of Titanium (Machined and Treated Surface) Versus Zirconia Implant Materials: An In Vivo Animal Study.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:The aim of this study was to perform an in vivo histological comparative evaluation of bone formation around titanium (machined and treated surface) and zirconia implants. For the present study were used 50 commercially pure titanium implants grade IV, being that 25 implants with a machined surface (TiM group), 25 implants with a treated surface (TiT group) and, 25 implants were manufactured in pure zirconia (Zr group). The implants (n = 20 per group) were installed in the tibia of 10 rabbits. The implants distribution was randomized (n = 3 implants per tibia). Five implants of each group were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and an optical laser profilometer for surface roughness characterization. Six weeks after the implantation, 10 implants for each group were removed in counter-torque for analysis of maximum torque value. The remaining samples were processed, included in historesin and cut to obtain non-decalcified slides for histomorphological analyses and histomorphometric measurement of the percentage of bone-implant contact (BIC%). Comparisons were made between the groups using a 5% level of significance (p < 0.05) to assess statistical differences. The results of removal torque values (mean ± standard deviation) showed for the TiM group 15.9 ± 4.18 N cm, for TiT group 27.9 ± 5.15 N cm and for Zr group 11.5 ± 2.92 N cm, with significant statistical difference between the groups (p < 0.0001). However, the BIC% presented similar values for all groups (35.4 ± 4.54 for TiM group, 37.8 ± 4.84 for TiT group and 34.0 ± 6.82 for Zr group), with no statistical differences (p = 0.2171). Within the limitations of the present study, the findings suggest that the quality of the new bone tissue formed around the titanium implants present a superior density (maturation) in comparison to the zirconia implants.

Project description:BackgroundLong-term success of implant restoration depends on many factors one of them is the sufficient implant stability which is lowered in compromised bone density sites such as the maxilla as it is categorized as type III & IV bone, so searching for a new innovation and updates in implant material and features is very mandatory. So, the aim of this study was to compare between two implant materials (roxolid and traditional titanium) on the primary and secondary stability of implant retained maxillary overdenture.MethodsEighteen completely edentulous patients were selected. All patients received maxillary implant-retained overdentures and lower complete dentures; patients were divided equally into two groups according to the type of implant materials. Group A received a total number of 36 implants made of roxolid material and Group B received a total number of 36 implants made of traditional titanium alloys. Implant stability was assessed using ostell device, the primary implant stability was measured at the day of implant installation however, secondary implant stability was measured after six weeks of implant placement. Paired t-test was used to compare between primary and secondary stability in the same group and an independent t-test was used to compare between the two groups with a significant level < 0.05.ResultsIndependent t-test revealed a significant difference between the two groups with p -value = 0.0141 regarding primary stability and p-value < 0.001 regarding secondary stability, as roxolid implant group was statistically higher stability than titanium group in both. Paired t- test showed a statistically significant difference in roxolid implant group with p-value = 0.0122 however, there was non-statistically significant difference in titanium group with p-value = 0.636. Mann Whitney test showed a significant difference between the two groups regarding amount of change in stability with p value = 0.191. roxolid implant group showed a higher amount of change in stability than the titanium implant group.ConclusionWithin the limitation of this study, it could be concluded that: Roxolid implants showed promising results regarding primary and secondary stability compared to conventional Titanium implants and can be a better alternative in implant retained maxillary overdentures.Trial registrationRetrospectively NCT06334770 at 26-3-2024.

Project description:This study evaluates the dynamic shift in the microbiota at the peri-implant site of titanium (Ti) and zirconia (Zr) implants subjected to experimental peri-implantitis (PI) and, for the first time, of implants made of ceria-stabilized alumina-reinforced zirconia (Ce-TZP/Al), a revolutionary zirconia that is set to play a key role in modern implant dentistry. One- and two-piece (TP) implants, including Ce-TZP/AL TP/G3 glass, were placed bilaterally (six implants/side) in five beagle dogs to mimic a natural vs. ligature-induced PI following a split-mouth design. The experiment spanned 30 weeks from tooth extraction. Both PI models promoted plaque deposition at peri-implant sites. Comparatively, the PI induced by ligatures favored the deposition of anaerobes (p = 0.047 vs. natural). Regardless of the model, the plaque deposition pattern was entirely dependent on the implanted material. Ligated Ti and Zr implant sites accumulated up to 2.14 log CFU/mL unit anaerobic load (p ≤ 0.033 vs. non-ligated implant sites), predominantly comprising obligate anaerobes. Naturally occurring PI induced the deposition of co-occurring networks of obligate anaerobes and less oxygen-dependent bacteria. PI induction favored the enrichment of Ti and Zr sites with bacterial taxa belonging to the orange and red complexes (up to 28% increase naturally and up to 71% in the ligated hemiarch). Anaerobic deposition was significantly lower in ligated Ce-TZP/Al implant sites (p ≤ 0.014 vs. TI and Zr) and independent of the induction model (0.63-1 log units of increase). Facultative bacteria prevailed at Ce-TZP/AL sites. The abundance was lower in the Ce-TZP/AL TP implant. Unlike Ti and Zr sites, taxa from the orange and red complexes were negligible. Biofilms configured at the Ti and Zr sites after ligation-induced PI resemble those found in severe IP. We hypothesize that, although surface properties (surface energy and surface roughness) and physicochemical properties of the substrate play an important role in bacterial adhesion and subsequent plaque formation, Ce-TZP/Al modulates several biological activities that preserve the integrity of the gingival seal by limiting PI progression. In conclusion, biofilm progression differs in peri-implant sites according to the specific properties of the material. Ce-TZP/A, unlike titanium or zirconia, prevents dysbiosis in sites subjected to experimental PI and preserves the microbial signature of emergent obligate anaerobes related to PI development.
