Abstract Background : To investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of machine learning models based on trabecular microstructure parameters for predicting the occurrence of marginal bone loss (MBL) of the submerged dental implant in mandible. Methods : Clinical variables and morphological parameters of trabecular bone were collected from 81 subjects with submerged implants in the mandible (41 cases of abnormal MBL and 40 as normal controls). We measured the peri-implant MBL level by a cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) at the follow-up of 20.95±2.67 months after functional loading. The morphological parameters and possible factors associated with MBL were collected in a mean of 3.98±1.06 months at the early loading stage. All variables were analyzed using correlation and covariance matrices. Support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), logistic regression (LR) model and random forest (RF) were actualized to predict abnormal MBL. Results : At the early stage of functional loading, the abnormal MBL cases showed a significant increase of structure model index (SMI) and trabecular pattern factor (Tb.Pf) in peri-implant. Meanwhile, SMI and Tb.Pf simultaneously revealed a significantly high positive correlation with MBL. The LR model exhibited the best outcome in predicting MBL (AUC = 0.956), followed by SVM (AUC = 0.928), RF (AUC = 0.917), ANN (AUC = 0.900), SMI alone (AUC = 0.705) and Tb.Pf alone (AUC = 0.663). Compared with one single predictor, all algorithm models yielded significantly superior performance. Conclusion : Abnormal MBL cases demonstrated the premonitory morphological variation in trabecular bone at the early stage. MBL prediction could be achieved by machine learning methods.

Abstract Marginal bone loss (MBL) is one of the leading causes of dental implant failure. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of machine learning (ML) algorithms based on trabeculae microstructure parameters to predict the occurrence of severe MBL. Eighty-one patients (41 severe MBL cases and 40 normal controls) were involved in the current study. Four ML models, including support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), logistic regression (LR), and random forest (RF), were employed to predict severe MBL. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity were used to evaluate the performance of these models. At the early stage of functional loading, severe MBL cases showed a significant increase of structure model index and trabecular pattern factor in peri-implant alveolar bone. The SVM model exhibited the best outcome in predicting MBL (AUC = 0.967, sensitivity = 91.67%, specificity = 100.00%), followed by ANN (AUC = 0.928, sensitivity = 91.67%, specificity = 93.33%), LR (AUC = 0.906, sensitivity = 91.67%, specificity = 93.33%), RF (AUC = 0.842, sensitivity = 75.00%, specificity = 86.67%). Together, ML algorithms based on the morphological variation of trabecular bone can be used to predict severe MBL.

Objective: To evaluate the influence of implant length on marginal bone loss, comparing implants of 4 mm, 6 mm, and >8 mm, supporting two splinted crowns after 36-month functional loading. Materials and Methods: this retrospective clinical trial evaluated the peri-implant behavior of splinted crowns (two per case) on pairs of implants of the same length placed in the posterior maxilla (molar area). Implants were divided into three groups according to length (Group 1: extra-short 4 mm; Group 2: short 6 mm; Group 3: conventional length >8 mm). Marginal bone loss was analyzed using standardized periapical radiographs at the time of loading and 36 months later. Results: 24 patients (19 women and 5 men) were divided into three groups, eight rehabilitations per group, in the position of the maxillary first and second molars. The 48 Straumann® Standard Plus (Regular Neck (RN)/Wide Neck (WN)) implants were examined after 36 months of functional loading. Statistical analysis found no significant differences in bone loss between the three groups (p = 0.421). No implant suffered biological complications or implant loss. Long implants were associated with less radiographic bone loss. Conclusions: extra-short (4 mm); short (6 mm); and conventional length (>8 mm) implants in the posterior maxilla present similar peri-implant bone loss and 100% survival rates in rehabilitation, by means of two splinted crowns after 36 months of functional loading. Implants placed in posterior positions present better bone loss results than implants placed in anterior positions, regardless of the interproximal area where bone loss is measured. Conventional length (>8 mm) implants show better behavior in terms of distal bone loss than short (6 mm) and extra-short (4 mm) implants.

Aim: In this study, our aim is to compare the effects of dental implants with nano laser excimer technology surface (NLE) and dental implant surfaces (MTX) with micro-roughened surface on marginal tissues with clinical and radiological data. Methodology: A total of 117 dental implants were followed clinically and radiologically. Clinically; Plaque index (silness-leöe), bleeding index in boring, pocket depth were evaluated and recorded 1 week after the insertion of the healing cap, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the end of the prosthesis. In the same periods, periapical x-rays were taken with the Rinn Holder method and the amount of marginal bone loss was measured. The data were analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics Version 22 package program. Results: There was no loss in the implants included in the study. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of plaque index, bleeding index values (p>0,05). However, the pocket depth of the dental implant group with nano laser excimer technology surface is significantly lower than the micro-roughened surface group. There are statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of radiological marginal bone loss at 0, 3, 6, and 12 months (p<0,05). Radiological marginal bone loss values ​​of the micro-roughened surface group at 0, 3, 6, and 12 months were significantly lower compared to the same periods of the nano laser excimer technology group. Conclusion: It has been determined that the surface properties of dental implants can be effective on marginal tissues. In addition, we believe that routine checks by dentists who perform dental implant applications will increase the success of dental implants.   How to cite this article: Bingül MB, Gülsün B.
