Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Due to good function and aesthetic effect, implant dentures become prevalent in osteoporotic patients with missing teeth. However, whether osteoporosis is a contraindication of dentures as wel as effects of osteoporosis on the bone-implant integration have been not ful y understood.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the levels of alkaline phosphatase, bone mineral density and implant stability in patients with osteoporosis and non-osteoporosis, and to explore whether the osteoporotic patients can achieve good prognosis. METHODS:Forty patients undergoing implant dentures in the Department of Prosthodontics, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University since February 2015 were enrol ed, and al otted to experimental (osteoporosis) and control (non-osteoporosis) groups (n=20 per group).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The levels of salivary alkaline phosphatase, bone mineral density and initial implant stability in the experiment and control groups both were lower than those before surgery. There were significant
differences in the implant stability quotient at 1 and 3 months and immediately after implantation between groups. These results indicate that osteoporotic patients undergoing implant surgery can achieve a good prognosis that is similar with non-osteoporosis ones.
