Peri‐implant parameters and C‐reactive protein levels among patients with different obesity levels

Abstract

Clinical and radiographic peri-implant inflammatory parameters and serum CRP were significantly high in patients with severe form of obesity. Serum CRP levels correlated with peri-implant bleeding in obese patients. These findings are preliminary and long-term controlled trials are recommended to support these outcomes.

Clinical and radiographic peri‐implant variables around short dental implants in type 2 diabetic, prediabetic, and non‐diabetic patients

“…Another remarkable finding in the present study is that the patients in T2DM and prediabetes groups had increased mean BMI that ranged from 29.6 to 37.2 kg/m 2 . Recent cross‐sectional and longitudinal data suggests that increased bodyweight is a significant systemic risk factor for both periodontal and peri‐implant tissue inflammation . In a recent study by Vohra and colleagues .…”

Association of advanced glycation end products with peri‐implant inflammation in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients

“…[24][25][26] Similarly, in a recent cross-sectional study that assessed peri-implant outcomes in obese and non-obese patients, 27 showed that increased body weight is a predisposing factor for poor peri-implant outcomes that is possibly modified by c-reactive protein (a proinflammatory biomarker). Several recent studies reported that increased BMI is a modifying risk factor for periodontal tissue destruction.…”

Proinflammatory cytokine levels and peri‐implant parameters among cigarette smokers, individuals vaping electronic cigarettes, and non‐smokers

“…These radiographs were further scanned at 800 dots per inch using a scanner . Peri‐implant MBL was measured on the radiograph as the vertical distance from the crest of the alveolar bone to the platform of the dental implant …”
