Peri-Implant Indices of Remodeling As a Response to Mechanical Loading THESIS Peri-implant Indices of Remodeling as a Response to Mechanical Loading THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Michael Lynn Gurney Graduate Program in Dentistry The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Binnaz Leblebicioglu D.D.S. PhD “Advisor” Dr. Edwin McGlumphy D.D.S. M.S. Dr. John Walters D.D.S. M.Med.Sci. i Copyright by Michael Lynn Gurney 2012 i Abstract Background: The current study aims to detect peri-implant tissue changes that may occur due to bone and soft tissue remodeling as a response to mechanical loading. Material and methods: Systemically healthy, non-smoking adults with a single posterior edentulous space with intact proximal natural teeth were recruited. Inclusion criteria were: adult patient, systemic health, periodontal health, single tooth posterior edentulous space, non- smoking, no grafting needed, and ability to consent to treatment. Exclusion criteria included presence of parafunctional habits and implants placed with significant angle precluding screw retained implant crowns. Peri-implant tissue changes were recorded prior to crown delivery and 1, 3, 6 and 12 weeks in function. Clinical parameters were: plaque and gingival indices (PI and GI), Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA), and crevicular fluid (CF) samples of the implant and adjacent teeth. CF volume was determined using a calibrated electronic volume quantification unit. Samples were stored at -80C. Multiplex assay was performed for cytokine detection. Polymerase Chain Reaction was used to detect the presence of eight putative microflora. Data was analyzed using multiple model regression analysis corrected with Bonferroni adjustment. Correlation analysis was conducted by calculating Spearman correlation coefficient, statistical significance was accepted at p<0.05. ii Results: Sixteen patients were recruited and fifteen completed the study. Mean healing time prior to loading was 6.1±0.3 months. Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) increased from 76.5±1.7 to 83.7±1.7 units (P<0.001). Peri-implant plaque accumulation was statistically lower than adjacent periodontal plaque accumulation at baseline (P=0.02) and this difference between groups stayed significant throughout the observation weeks (P<0.004). Peri-implant gingival index was statistically lower compared to adjacent periodontal gingival index before loading and at 1 week following loading (P<0.05). No difference between implant and adjacent tooth sites for GI at follow-up appointments (P>0.05). Peri-implant GI increased observed by 12 week was statistically significant compared to baseline (P=0). Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was statistically higher than peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) prior to loading (P=0.03). PICF increased following loading and was significantly greater than GCF at 1, 3, 6 and 12 weeks (P<0.04). Post-loading peri-implant crevicular fluid was statistically higher than pre-loading crevicular fluid when compared to baseline value (P=0.004). No significant differences in periodontal and peri-implant probing depths or the keratinized tissue width throughout the study (P>0.05). Cytokines: PDGF, IL-4, IL-6, IL-7, IL-10, IL-12, IL-17, Eotaxin, FGFb, IFN and TNFα were expressed at detectable but low levels at both PICF and GCF samples with no significant differences throughout the observation period. IL-1, IL-8, G-CSF, IP-10 and VEGF presented higher expression levels in gingival crevicular fluid samples compared to PICF samples prior to loading with no statistically significant difference. Following one week of loading, there was approximately a two fold increase in peri-implant crevicular fluid IL-1, IL-8 and MIP-1b levels although the differences were not statistically significant. VEGF and MCP-1 levels showed a iii trend towards increased expression at one week (P>0.05). Other cytokines, G-CSF and IP-10, were expressed at higher levels at both PICF and GCF samples following 3 weeks of loading compared to before loading values. The differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Microbiology data showed the presence of certain putative periodontal pathogens throughout observation period in a transient fashion. Conclusion: Within the limits of this study, it appears that mechanical loading following a traditional osseointegration period has significant effect on implant stability and peri-implant clinical indices used to evaluate soft tissue healing and health. However, the expression of pro- inflammatory cytokines and the presence of certain putative periodontal pathogens show significant variations among individuals. iv Dedication This document is dedicated to my family.

M. Shah Dental College and Hospital/ Sumandeep Vidyapeeth, India) Corresponding Author: *Dr. Jaimini Patel Abstract : Junctional epithelium is the most dynamic feature of the periodontal tissues as it not only plays an important role in health but also displays various characteristic changes in disease. The biologic width around tooth and implants is also an important consideration from treatment point of view. In the following review we have discussed the importance of junctional epithelium and biologic width around teeth and implant and the factors that influence the peri-implant biologic width. Keywords : Biologic Width, Junctional Epithelium, Implant ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Date of Submission: 29 -07-2017 Date of acceptance: 09-09-2017 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. Introduction Teeth are trans-mucosal organs. This is a unique association in the human body where a hard tissue emerges through the soft tissue. Epithelia exhibit considerable differences in their histology, thickness and differentiation suitable for the functional demands of their location.1 The gingival epithelium around a tooth is divided into three functional compartments– outer, sulcular, and junctional epithelium. The outer epithelium extends from the mucogingival junction to the gingival margin where crevicular/sulcular epithelium lines the sulcus. At the base of the sulcus connection between gingiva and tooth is mediated with junctional epithelium.

  • Dental Hygiene Clinic Procedure and Policy Manual
    Dental Hygiene Clinic Policy and Procedure Manual Ferris State University College of Health Professions Dental Hygiene Program Written and Edited by Annette U. Jackson, RDH, BS, MS (c) In Collaboration with the Dental Hygiene Faculty and Staff Reviewed and Updated 2019 DENTAL CLINIC POLICY AND PROCEDURES MANUAL DENTAL HYGIENE PROGRAM DENTAL CLINIC The intent of this manual is to provide guidelines to students, faculty, and staff concerning their expectations and obligations associated with participation in the Ferris Dental Hygiene clinic. CLINIC PURPOSE The dental hygiene clinic serves as the location for dental hygiene students to receive their pre-clinic and clinical experience in preparation to become a registered dental hygienist. In general, the clinic also serves as the location for the general public to receive dental hygiene care, as they serve as patients for dental hygiene students. As this facility provides patient treatment, it must be recognized that, during the time patients are being treated, all efforts must be directed toward safe, appropriate patient treatment and appropriate student supervision. Only students who are scheduled to treat patients should be present in clinic unless appropriately authorized. Non-clinic related business should not be occurring during scheduled clinic times. Clinic instructors are responsible for supervising the students and patients who have been assigned to them during a clinic session. Students (not scheduled in clinic), who need to speak to a clinic instructor, should make arrangements with the instructor to do so during the instructor’s office hour or other mutually agreeable time, rather than during the instructor’s clinic assignment. Neither students nor instructors should be leaving their assigned clinic to conduct non- related business unless an emergency develops, or if follow up with a patient’s physician, pharmacy, etc., needs to be done.
