Factors associated with early and late failure of dental implants

Abstract: Osseointegration is a good indication of the clinical success of titanium implants referring to the direct anchorage of such implants to the surrounding host bone. Despite the high success rate of endosseous dental implants, they do fail. A lack of primary stability, surgical trauma, and infection seem to be the most important causes of early implant failure. Early signs of infection may be an indication of a much more critical result than if the same complications occur later, because of disturbance of the pr… Show more

“…According to mechanostat theory by Frost [14], both bone growth and resorption are closely dependent on affecting mechanical forces. So the osseointegrated implant can be overloaded and not survive due to loading [15]. However, there are no clear guidelines: how much functional and para-functional loading can be injurious for dental implant, what mechanical factors can decrease load effect for such kind of restorations and what should be avoided.…”

“…However, peri-implant infections (PIIs) still form a threat for a successful treatment. 1,2 PIIs are characterized by the inflammatory destruction of the implant-supporting tissues, as a result of biofilm formation on the surface of the implant. 3,4 Dental implants are at an increased risk of contamination because the oral cavity is a dynamic ecosystem continuously colonized by microorganisms.…”

“…[39] The leading cause of failure for orthopaedic and dental implants is aseptic loosening of the implant from the surrounding bone tissue. [1013] A common hypothesis for aseptic loosening is that poor osseointegration at early times allows for micromotions of the implant relative to the bone. [1418] In the case of hips, knees, and teeth, these areas experience and transfer stresses during activities such as walking and chewing, which may lead to worsening of micromotions and ultimately result in the need for a revision surgery.…”
