Abstract
Background: Peri-implant disease pathogenesis results in production of pro-inflammatory mediators. These mediators alter the redox balance leading to decrease in antioxidants. The aim of the study was to compare the levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in peri-implant health and diseases.
Materials and methods: The present observational study was carried out from March 2023 to September 2023 in the Department of Implantology, Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals, Chennai, India. A total of 60 patients with peri-implant health (n = 20), peri-implant mucositis (n = 20) and peri-implantitis (n = 20) were enrolled. Unstimulated salivary samples were collected and subjected to ELISA for IL-6 and SOD analysis. IL-6 and SOD levels were then compared between the groups using ANOVA.
Results: There was a statistically significant difference in IL-6 and SOD levels between the three groups with p value of 0.003 and 0.000 respectively.
Conclusion: The present study suggests that IL-6 level increases and SOD level decreases with severity of peri-implant diseases.
期刊介绍:
MEDICAL IMPLANTS are being used in every organ of the human body. Ideally, medical implants must have biomechanical properties comparable to those of autogenous tissues without any adverse effects. In each anatomic site, studies of the long-term effects of medical implants must be undertaken to determine accurately the safety and performance of the implants. Today, implant surgery has become an interdisciplinary undertaking involving a number of skilled and gifted specialists. For example, successful cochlear implants will involve audiologists, audiological physicians, speech and language therapists, otolaryngologists, nurses, neuro-otologists, teachers of the deaf, hearing therapists, cochlear implant manufacturers, and others involved with hearing-impaired and deaf individuals.
