Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the changes of osteoprotegerin ( OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand ( RANKL) level in perio-implant crevicular fluid ( PICF) and to monitor the development of the stability of Straumann ? tissue-level implants by resonance frequency analysis ( RFA) during the early phases of healing .Methods: A total of 35 implants ( length 10 mm ) were placed.PICF samples were collected with filter paper strips at baseline , 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks post-surgery, respectively.The OPG, RANKL levels were determined by ELISA method .At the same time points, the implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were determined with Osstell TM mentor.Results:During healing , PICF-OPG levels increased significantly 2 weeks after surgery when compared with the 4th-, 6th-, 8th-and 12th-week reevaluation (P<0.05).The OPG/RANKL ratio in PICF was significantly higher ( P<0 .05 ) than that in gingival crevicular fluid at 1 week post-surgery .ISQ slightly fluctuated within the first 4 weeks after installation .Following this, the ISQ values increased steadily for all the implants and up to 12 weeks.Significant differences were noted between the mean ISQ values at the 12th-week and other observation time points .Conclusion: The PICF-OPG levels may be effective in monito-ring the process of osseointegration .All the ISQ values indicated the stability of Straumann ? implants over a 12-week healing period .RFA is a reliable and effective assistant to monitor implant stability .
