Background: Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease having various negative effects on bone metabolism. Dental Implants are widely used in recent times for rehabilitation of missing teeth, therefore there is a need for evaluation of risk factors of bone metabolism. Since a large population in India is suffering from diabetes, it is essential to evaluate their knowledge regarding dental implant placement in diabetic patients. Therefore, this survey aims to address this issue and raise knowledge and awareness regarding the same. Materials and Methods: A well-structured survey consisting of 14 questions was carried out among the general population in Mumbai through various social media platforms. Results: A total of 512 people participated in the survey, with around 59.8% male and 40.2% female participation. 80.9% of the participants were of the opinion that implants could be placed in a diabetic person. 73.4% felt that informing their dentist about diabetic status will cause a change in their treatment plan. However only 20.5% of the participants received any information regarding diabetes affecting the success of dental implants. Conclusion: There is sufficient knowledge among the participants regarding effects of diabetes on the oral health in dental implant therapy. Patients should be educated regarding the possibilities of placing dental implants in a diabetic patient regardless of their glycemic control with the help of dental professionals and healthcare practitioners.

Dental implants are made of medical titanium and perfectly fit into human bone tissue; the dental implant can last a lifetime. Not beeing living organic structures, there are no nerve endings, neither at the implant level nor at the artificial crown level. The use of quality implants by an experienced implantologist, assisted by advanced technology, transforms the treatment with dental implants into the medical-surgical act with the highest success rate among dental and even medical treatments.Through the complete replacement of the tooth, including the root, can artificially reproduce the function of the natural tooth, with a strong and stable base. The implant crown, made of aesthetic materials (porcelain, zirconium) and anchored to it by means of the prosthetic abutment, will be surrounded by a healthy and aesthetic gum. Especially if the prosthetic abutment (the connecting element between the implant itself and the artificial crown) will be made of zirconium - natural light will cross ceramic layers, similar to enamel and dentine, offering a white of envy and glitter to the smile. Around the porcelain crowns (whole ceramics or zirconia ceramics) the gingiva will conform healthily, without the slightest sign of inflammation. These elements, the white of the teeth and the pink of the gums define the concept of dental aesthetics. The main problems that diabetic patients may encounter, are gingival inflammation and periodontal disease, dental mobility and tooth loss. When a dental implant is influenced by the type of diabetes, its failure rate is higher in patients with type 1 diabetes than in patients with type 2 diabetes. The study included a number of 56 patients, who presented themselves for performing an implant. Of these, 7 patients did not perform an implant. Diabetes mellitus defines a chronic metabolic disorder, which may have multiple etiopathogenesis, characterized by changes in carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism. Stability of the implant in the bone, immediately after implantation is crucial for the success of the treatment; this immediate stability is called primary stability and is purely mechanical in nature. Keywords: Dental implants, dental treatments, diabetes, failure rate

Diabetes mellitus is known to compromise the various aspects of homeostasis, including the immune response and the composition of oral microflora. One of the oral manifestations of diabetes mellitus is tooth loss and the survival rate of dental implants chosen as a treatment modality for its rehabilitation is controversial. The current study aims to evaluate and compare the failure rate of dental implants between well-controlled diabetic and healthy patients. A retrospective study of case-control design was conceptualized with 121 well-controlled diabetic and 136 healthy individuals. Records of subjects who had undergone oral rehabilitation with dental implants between the periods of January 2013 to January 2016 were retrieved. Post-operative evaluation was carried out for all patients for about three years to assess the immediate and long-term success of the procedure. From a total of 742 dental implants, 377 were placed in well-controlled diabetic patients (case group) and 365 in healthy subjects (control group). A comparable (9.81%), but non-significant (p = 0.422) failure rate was found in the case group in comparison to the control group (9.04%). A non-significant (p = 0.392) raised number (4.98%) of failure cases were reported among females in comparison to males (4.44%). In respect to arch, the mandibular posterior region was reported as the highest failure cases (3.09%; p = 0.411), with 2.29% of cases reported in the mandibular anterior (p = 0.430) and maxillary posterior (p = 0.983) each. The maxillary anterior region was found to have the least number (1.75%; p = 0.999) of failure cases. More (4.98%; p = 0.361) cases were reported to fail during the functional loading stage in contrast to osseointegration (4.44%; p = 0.365). A well-controlled diabetic status does not impose any additional risk for individuals undergoing dental implant therapy.

Abstract Purpose Dental implant surgery was developed to be the most suitable and comfortable instrument for dental and oral rehabilitation in the past decades, but with increasing numbers of inserted implants, complications are becoming more common. Diabetes mellitus as well as prediabetic conditions represent a common and increasing health problem (International Diabetes Federation in IDF Diabetes Atlas, International Diabetes Federation, Brussels, 2019) with extensive harmful effects on the entire organism [(Abiko and Selimovic in Bosnian J Basic Med Sci 10:186–191, 2010), (Khader et al., in J Diabetes Complicat 20:59–68, 2006, 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2005.05.006)]. Hence, this study aimed to give an update on current literature on effects of prediabetes and diabetes mellitus on dental implant success. Methods A systematic literature research based on the PRISMA statement was conducted to answer the PICO question “Do diabetic patients with dental implants have a higher complication rate in comparison to healthy controls?”. We included 40 clinical studies and 16 publications of aggregated literature in this systematic review. Results We conclude that patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus suffer more often from peri-implantitis, especially in the post-implantation time. Moreover, these patients show higher implant loss rates than healthy individuals in long term. Whereas, under controlled conditions success rates are similar. Perioperative anti-infective therapy, such as the supportive administration of antibiotics and chlorhexidine, is the standard nowadays as it seems to improve implant success. Only few studies regarding dental implants in patients with prediabetic conditions are available, indicating a possible negative effect on developing peri-implant diseases but no influence on implant survival. Conclusion Dental implant procedures represent a safe way of oral rehabilitation in patients with prediabetes or diabetes mellitus, as long as appropriate precautions can be adhered to. Accordingly, under controlled conditions there is still no contraindication for dental implant surgery in patients with diabetes mellitus or prediabetic conditions.

Despite the recent economic downturn, the dental implant market continues to grow year on year. Many more dentists are involved in the placement restoration of dental implants and dental implants are being placed in an extended range of clinical scenarios. Dental implant therapy remains a high risk area for the inexperienced in terms of civil negligence claims and General Dental Council hearings. Risk can be mitigated by: • Ensuring appropriate indemnity • Complying with the published requirements for training • Maintaining detailed and extensive clinical records • Completing the initial phases of history, examination and investigations robustly • Recording a diagnosis • Providing a bespoke written treatment plan that includes details of the need for treatment, the treatment options (the risks and benefits), the phases of treatment, the costs of treatment, the expected normal sequelae of surgery, the risks and complications of implant therapy and the requirement for future maintenance. The provision of treatment that is different in nature or extent to that agreed can result in a breach of contract as well as a claim for negligence • Engaging sufficiently with the patient to obtain consent • Providing written postoperative instructions detailing emergency arrangements, patients who are anxious or in pain may not retain oral information • Making a frank disclosure of complication or collateral damage • Considering referral at an early stage particularly if reparative surgery is required The stress of complications or failure may impair a dentist's normally sound judgement; there may be financial pressure, or concerns regarding reputation. In some cases, dentists avoid making a frank disclosure, feel obliged to undertake complicated reparative surgery, fail to make a timely referral, fail to respond appropriately to patient's concerns and in some cases attempt to alter the clinical records. However, in the best of hands and without negligence complications can and do occur. Complications that occur in the presence of good planning and communication and are managed appropriately do not amount to negligence, and are unlikely to lead to a successful claim.

Partial and total edentation has been a real problem worldwide and at all times. The realization of an individualized treatment plan for each form of edentation takes into account the particularities of the edentulous prosthetic field and the materials used as well as the conventional or modern techniques applied. The study group consisted of 220 patients in whom dental implants were inserted; the control group was randomized from 10 patients with a favorable evolution out of the 210 (94.55%). At 7 and 60 days after the insertion of the dental implants and 6 months after their prosthetic loading, crevicular fluid and peri-implant fluid was harvested, for the quantitative determination of Osteoprotegerin (OPG) and Interleukin 1β (IL1-β). Of the 220 patients studied, 10 developed peri implantitis (5.45%) as follows: 4 patients with mucositis and 6 patients with severe form. The results obtained show that there are differences with statistical significance between the OPG values obtained in crevicular fluid in healthy compared to patients with mucositis after 7 days (p <0.001). Regarding IL1-β, there are differences with high statistical significance between the levels in healthy patients and those with peri-implantitis after 7 days (p <0.001). Our results show the existence of a high correlation between the clinical status and these two parameters, especially after the determinations performed at 7 and 60 days. In conclusions, the present study shows that the OPG and IL1-β can be considered useful markers in the evaluation of the patient after the insertion of the dental implant and after its prosthetic loading.

Abstract Background and Aims: Diabetes mellitus is considered to be one of the most important diseases of our society, affecting a considerable proportion of the adult population. Currently, dental implant treatment of diabetic patients is controversial, the main controversy being related to changes that occur in the jaw bones of the diabetic patient and the ensuing side effects. This preliminary study aims to evaluate the response of mandibular bone to masticatory forces transmitted by dental implants in diabetic patients. Material and Method: 11 dental implants placed in the mandible were selected, and mandibular bone resorption as a result of masticatory forces transmitted by them was evaluated. Results: The mean bone resorption rates were the following: 2.72% at the time of dental implant exposure, 10% at 3 months from dental implant exposure, and 13.63% at 6 months from exposure. Conclusions: No significant changes in mandibular bone response to the action of dental implants were found in diabetic patients compared to standard response reported in non-diabetic patients.

Цель исследования состояла в разработке неинвазивного метода диагностики состояния тканей периимплантационной зоны после постановки дентальных имплантатов, а также прогноза течения послеоперационного периода и ранней диагностики послеоперационных осложнений, таких, как мукозит и периимплантит, при одноэтапном методе дентальной имплантации. Методы. В исследовании представлена цитологическая характеристика отпечатков из области контакта имплантата с десной, в которых оценивали состояние эпителиальных клеток при различных проявлениях цитопатологии. Определяли индекс деструкции (ИД) и воспалительно-деструктивный индекс (ВДИ) в клетках воспалительного инфильтрата, которые сопоставляли с клинической картиной течения послеоперационного периода. Сроки забора цитологического материала 1, 5, 15, 25, 30, 60, 120 дней после постановки имплантатов. Количество исследованных цитограмм - 442 от 11 пациентов (по 1-2 имплантата). Общий массив использованных для вычисления интегральных показателей составил »2550. Результаты. Было установлено, что в сроки 1-5 дней после постановки дентальных имплантатов происходит резкое повышение показателей ИД (до 7500 ± 15) и ВДИ (до 80 ± 20), что отражает процесс развития в области имплантатов острых воспалительных реакций. В отдаленные сроки наблюдений отмечалось 2 варианта развития событий. Первый из них характеризовался сохранением во все сроки высоких показателей ИД и ВДИ. Для второго варианта динамики показателей было характерно их падение, что соответствовало развитию процесса остеоинтеграции дентальных имплантатов. The objectives of the investigation were to develop protocols evaluating the validity and effectiveness of the cytological method for diagnosis and prognosis of tissue conditions adjacent to a dental implant. Methods. This study examined the cytological characteristics of imprints of the gingiva-implant contact area, a. the correlation of quantitative ratios of epithelial cells either with or without hystopathological manifestations (an index of destruction, ID); b. ratio of cells of the inflammatory infiltrate (an inflammatory and destructive index, IDI); these data were researched in relation with dynamics of the clinical pictures during a postoperative period.The cytological material was obtained 1, 5, 15, 25, 30, 60, 120 days after dental implantation. Totally 442 cytogramme from 11 patients (1-2 implant per a patient) were assayed. The data array for computation of integrated indicators was composed of ca. 2550 data points. Results. A significant increase of ID (7500 ± 15) and IDI (80 ± 20) indicators, which reflects the development of acute inflammatory reactions in tissues neighboring an implant, was observed within 1-5 days following the insertion of dental implants. Long-term observations revealed two scenarios. The first scenario was characterized by the retention of high levels of ID and IDI over the period of observations. The second scenario featured the reduction of ID and IDI indices, which corresponded to the development of the osseointegration of dental implants.

1. Background: Loss of permanent teeth is very common, affected chewing function, speech and aesthetics; restoration of missing teeth with dental implant has several advantages, but we need thoroughly study the clinical and X ray features at the position at missing teeth, then to select the type of implant and make the best plan for the dental implant patients. 2. Materials and method: Cross-section descriptive study. From January 2009 to November 2010, study with 56 patients with 102 implants of MIS and Megagen systems at the Faculty of Odonto-Stomatology, Hue College of Medicine and Pharmacy and Vietnam-Cuba Hospital in Ha Noi. 3. Results: Distributed equally in male and female, common ages 40 – 59 (55,4%), the majority of missing teeth occurs in the lower jaw (63,8%) and especially, the teeth 36 and 46 (25,4%). The majority of missing teeth due to dental caries, dental pulp and apical diseases (64,7%) of the molar teeth (51,9%); the most position of missing tooth have enough bone for dental implants (87,3%), time of tooth loss and bone status in the position of tooth loss are related to each other (p < 0,01). Diameter and length of implant usually used 4.0 – 6.0 mm (63,7%) and 8.5 – 13.0 mm (83,3%). 4. Conclusion: Clinical and X ray features of edentulous patients has an important role in determining the type of implants and treatment planning of dental implants. Key words: Loss of permanent teeth, X ray and clinical features, Dental implant.

The most common comorbidities in patients with diabetes mellitus are cardiovascular diseases, obesity, dyslipidemia, thyroid disorders but other associated diseases may frequently occur. Laboratory tests are useful investigation methods that may reveal the subclinical manifestations of the disease but they are also essential for patient monitoring. The aim of the study was to assess laboratory parameters and associated diseases in diabetic subjects and to implement a scoring system with a predictive role in the evolution of the cases. Material and methods: The study group consisted of 195 subjects with documented type 1 or type 2 diabetes. About half of the cases were collected from the Procardia outpatient unit, and the rest were patients admitted to the Diabetology Clinic in T�rgu Mure�. The study was performed between January - June 2017. The results of the laboratory tests, as well as the information regarding comorbidities and treatment, was collected and patients� body mass index was calculated. Based on the clinical data, a scoring system, called Diabetes Complication Severity Index (DCSI) with a predictive role, was implemented. The diabetic outpatients presented significantly better carbohydrate metabolic balance compared to the hospitalized subjects. No significant differences could be observed regarding kidney function, hepatic status and lipid profile of the two subgroups of diabetic subjects. The most important comorbidity observed in both patient groups was arterial hypertension. The hospitalized diabetic subjects had significantly higher incidence of ischemic heart disease and significantly lower incidence of thyroid disorders compared to the outpatients. The DCSI scoring system revealed that comorbidities are more frequently present in the hospitalized patients compared to the ambulant diabetic subjects. Evaluation of clinical status and laboratory results in diabetic patients followed by implementation of a scoring system based on the data obtained regarding comorbidities could help clinicians to set up an individual treatment plan for these patients, focusing on preventing other complications.
