Influence of Implant Connection, Abutment Design and Screw Insertion Torque on Implant-Abutment Misfit.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:An accurate fit at the implant-abutment interface is an important factor to avoid biological and mechanical complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the marginal misfit at the implant-abutment interface on external and Morse taper connection, with straight and angulated abutments under different insertion torque loads. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total of 120 implants were used, 60 with external connection (EC) and 60 with Morse taper connection (IC). Straight (SA) (n = 60) and angulated abutments (AA) (n = 60) were randomly screwed to each connection at different torque levels (n = 10 each): 10, 20 and 30 Ncm. All specimens were subjected to thermal and cyclic loading and the misfit was measured by scanning electron microscopy. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA, t-test and Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS:Significant differences (p < 0.001) were found between connections and abutments regardless of the torque applied. Morse taper connections with straight and angulated abutments showed the lowest misfit values (0.6 µm). Misfit values decreased as torque increased. CONCLUSIONS:The misfit was affected by the type of connection. The type of abutment did not influence the fit in the Morse taper connection. The higher the tightening torque applied the increase in the fit of the implant-abutment interface.

Project description:AimTo evaluate the influence of primary insertion torque (IT) values of narrow dental implants on the peri-implant health, implant stability, immunoinflammatory responses, bone loss, and success and survival rates.MethodsThirty-one edentulous patients received two narrow implants (2.9x10mm, Facility NeoPoros) to retain mandibular overdentures. The implants were categorized in four groups according to their IT: (G1) IT > 10 Ncm; (G2) IT ≥ 10Ncm and ≤ 30 Ncm; (G3) IT >30Ncm and < 45Ncm; (G4) IT ≥ 45Ncm, and all implants were loaded after 3 months of healing. The following clinical outcomes were evaluated 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after implant insertion: (i) peri-implant tissue health (PH), gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), calculus presence (CP), probing depth (PD), and bleeding on probing (BOP); (ii) implant stability quotient (ISQ) by resonance frequency analysis; and (iii) IL-1β and TNF-α concentration in the peri-implant crevicular fluid. The marginal bone level (MBL) and changes (MBC) were evaluated. The Chi2 test, Kruskal-Wallis test, mixed-effects regression analysis, and the Kendall rank correlation coefficient were used for statistical analysis (α = 5%).ResultsG1 presented the highest PD at all evaluated periods. G2 presented higher PI at month 6 and 12. G4 showed increased GI at month 3 and 12 and more CP at month 1 (p=.003). G2 and G4 had higher ISQ values over the study period, while those from G1 and G3 presented lower ISQ values. The IL-1β concentration increased until month 12 and was independent of IT and bone type; G4 had a higher IL-1β concentration in month 3 than the other groups (p=.015). The TNF-α release was negatively correlated with IT, and TNF-α release was highest in G1 at month 12. The MBL immediately after surgery and the MBC at month 12 were similar between the groups, and G4 presented a positive MBC at month 12. The survival and success rates were 75% for G1, 81.3% for G2, 64.3% for G3, and 95% for G4.ConclusionThe IT did not influence the clinical outcomes and the peri-implant immunoinflammatory responses and was weakly correlated with the narrow dental implants primary stability. The observed success rates suggest that the ideal IT for atrophic fully edentulous patients may deviate from the standardized IT of 32 Ncm.

Project description:BACKGROUND:To compare tissue response to two implant systems, featuring internal hexed connections with different designs. METHODS:Patients enrolled in this randomized controlled trial were assigned to two groups. In Group 1, patients were treated with implants with a 5° conical internal hexed connection (Anyridge®, MegaGen, South Korea). In Group 2, patients were treated with implants with an internal hexed connection (Core®, Kristal, Italy). After implant placement and a provisionalisation period of 12 months, impressions were taken, stone casts were poured and digitised with a desktop scanner (D700®, 3Shape, Copenhagen, Denmark). In a digital environment, for each fixture, two values were collected at the buccal zenith: the height of the peri-implant mucosa (mucosal height; MH), calculated from the vestibular shoulder of the implant analogue to the upper gingival margin of the supra-implant tissue; and the width of the peri-implant mucosa (mucosal thickness; MT), calculated from the vestibular shoulder of the analogue to the external mucosa point perpendicular to the implant major axis. The mean and standard deviation for MH and MT, as well as their ratios, were calculated for each group; the sectors in which the implants were placed were also considered. Finally, correlation between MH, MT, connection type and sector was assessed by Pearson's correlation coefficient, with significance level set at 0.05, and a confidence interval (CI) set at 95%. RESULTS:Data deriving from 188 implants placed in 104 patients were evaluated. The mean MH values were 3.32 (± 0.12) and 2.70 (± 0.16) mm for Groups 1 and 2, respectively. The mean MT values were 4.37 (± 0.16) and 3.93 (± 0.18) mm for Groups 1 and 2, respectively. Group 1 showed higher MH and MT values and a better ratio (1.50 ± 0.88) than Group 2 (1.81 ± 1.20). The MH, MT and MH/MT ratio were significantly influenced both by sector (p = 0.015) and group (p = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS:Within the limits of this study, the 5° connection implants supported a more extended tissue height and thickness at the buccal zenith, and a better ratio between them. TRIAL REGISTRATION:This study was retrospectively registered in Clinicaltrials.gov, with number NCT04160689, dated 13/11/2019.
