Prevalence of Peri-implant Diseases: Analyses of Associated Factors
Abstract
Aim: Identify the relationship between specific factors (age, sex, smoking, time of prosthesis in function, implant location, and width of peri-implant keratinized mucosa) and peri-implant diseases in patients from the Center of Research and Continuing Education in Implant Dentistry (CEPID) at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC),
Brazil.
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 193 patients that had received 725 external-hexed cylindrical implants supporting functional prosthesis for at least 1 year (range from 1-9 years). Clinical examination included probing depths, bleeding on probing and/or suppuration. Radiographic exam was conducted to measure
peri-implant bone levels.
