Ultrasonographic Tissue Perfusion in Peri-implant Health and Disease

Abstract: Color flow ultrasonography has played a crucial role in medicine for its ability to assess dynamic tissue perfusion and blood flow variations as an indicator of a pathologic condition. While this feature of ultrasound is routinely employed in various medical fields, its intraoral application for the assessment of tissue perfusion at diseased versus healthy dental implants has never been explored. We tested the hypothesis that quantified tissue perfusion of power Doppler ultrasonography correlates with the clin… Show more

“…The following measurements were computed using a commercially available software package, as previously described 14,21,23–25,27,28 and were performed by a single experienced examiner (JM), who has been calibrated in previous trials (k ≥ 0.87): MT: horizontal thickness of the peri‐implant soft tissue, calculated as the distance between the soft tissue margin and the abutment/implant fixture/buccal bone on a line parallel to the long axis of the implant body in the mid‐facial scan. MT was measured at 1 mm and 3 mm (MT1 and MT3, respectively) from the soft tissue margin. Peri‐implant buccal bone distance (BBD): Distance between the implant platform and the peri‐implant bone crest evaluated on a line parallel to the long axis of the implant body in the mid‐facial scan. Peri‐implant buccal bone thickness (BBT): evaluated 0.5 mm apical to the bone crest as the distance between the peri‐implant crestal bone and a line parallel to the long axis of the implant body in the mid‐facial scan. …”

“…The ultrasound equipment setup and the scanning procedures have been previously described in detail. [21][22][23][24][25] Briefly, a commercially available ultrasound imaging device ‡ was coupled with 24 MHz (64-μm axial image resolution) and miniature-sized (≈30-mm long × 18-mm wide × 12-mm thick) probe (L30-8) to generate ultrasound images (pixel size 0.05 mm) 26 (Figs. 1 and 2).…”

“…[1][2][3] The tremendous rise in the popularity of implants has also accompanied certain complications and adverse events. [4][5][6][7] Among them, esthetic challenges have rapidly become an emerging concern for clinicians and patients, especially given the rise in patients' esthetic demands. 8,9 Implant esthetic complications can include discoloration of the peri-implant soft tissues, apical shifting of the implant mucosal margin and exposure of the implant components, an implant-supported crown that is longer than its homologous contralateral tooth, or a combination of these events.…”
