Abstract [en]

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the 10-year outcome of 25 patients with immediate loading in the edentulous mandible. Material and Methods: Twenty-five patients were consecutively treated with 5 immediately loaded fluoride-modified implants in the edentulous mandible. Implant survival and bone loss were evaluated by an external researcher comparing digital periapical radiographs taken during recall visits with baseline (at implant insertion). Statistical descriptive analysis and nonparametric tests were performed using SPSS v23, multilevel analysis was performed by means of R version 3.1.0. to identify risk factors for bone loss. Results: Twenty-one patients (8 males, 13 females, mean age 68.4, range 49-84) responded to the 10-year recall invitation. No implants were lost during follow-up, resulting in a 100% survival rate. After 10 years, bleeding on probing and plaque were present at 49.5% and 67.6% of the sites, respectively. The mean pocket probing depth was 3.77 mm (SD 0.73, range 3.0-6.83). Bone loss on implant level after 3, 12, 24, and 120 months was 0.16 mm (SD 0.33, range 0-1.75), 0.14 mm (SD 0.24, range 0-1.05), 0.17 mm (SD 0.27, range 0-1.5), and 0.49 mm (SD 1.08, range 0-7.8). Five implants were identified with or at risk for progressive bone loss. Forty-seven percent of the implants did not show any bone loss after 10 years in function and 87% lost less than 1 mm. Multilevel statistical analysis identified 2-year bone loss as a predictor for bone loss after 10 years of function. Conclusion: Immediate loading of 5 fluoride-modified dental implants with a fixed prosthetic rehabilitation is a predictable and reliable treatment in the edentulous mandible, based on a 100% implant survival and limited peri-implant bone loss. Implants used for immediate loading in the edentulous mandible who are showing early bone loss may be at higher risk to develop peri-implantitis.
