Clinical and radiographic data were collected to characterize local factors. Overall, 28 site-specific variables were analyzed for peri-implantitis and non-peri-implantitis implants. Simple and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to explore potential associations. The diagnostic accuracy of those variables that demonstrated statistical significance in the multiple logistic regression analysis was further tested.RESULTSIn total, 100 patients with 452 implants met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 227 implants (50.2%) were diagnosed with peri-implantitis, while 225 (49.8%) did not present peri-implantitis. The multiple logistic regression analysis demonstrated statistical significance for the following factors: (1) medial implant position within the prosthesis (OR = 3.9) was more prone to develop peri-implantitis; (2) internal Morse taper implant connection was the least likely to develop peri-implantitis (OR = 0.43); (3) mesio-distally centered implants were less prone to exhibit peri-implantitis (OR = 0.46); (4) bucco-lingual centered implants were less prone to exhibit peri-implantitis (OR = 0.29); (5) implants positioned inside (≥ 2 mm) the bony housing were less prone to exhibit peri-implantitis (OR = 0.13); and (6) implants tilted 10°-30° (OR = 5.84) and ≥ 30° (OR = 7.43) were more prone to exhibit peri-implantitis. Moreover, a prediction model based on the aforementioned factors yielded a high level of accuracy.CONCLUSIONSImplant malpositioning is a critical factor associated with peri-implantitis.","PeriodicalId":10455,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Oral Implants Research","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145008712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ODN was initially developed for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, but further development as a systemic medication has been discontinued. Here, we propose ODN as a topical treatment, the coating of dental implants, to achieve an anabolic shift of early osseointegration.MATERIAL AND METHODSTo this aim, we have coated double acid etching titanium implants (SLA) with and without ODN dispersed in a simulated body fluid (SBF). The implants were inserted into the tibia of 72 male Wistar rats and osseointegration was studied on Days 15 and 40. Biomechanical testing, micro-computed microtomography, and histomorphometric analyses were performed.RESULTSBiomechanical testing reveals that after 15 days of healing, removal torque increased from 2.5 Ncm (1.5-4.4) to 3.9 Ncm (1.7-7.6) when comparing SBF alone with SBF containing ODN, respectively (p = 0.017). Consistently, micro-computed microtomography indicated that local bone volume increased from 24.4% (13.86-32.45) to 32.8% (19.7-39.4), respectively (p = 0.003). The same was true for presumed bone-to-implant contact, which was 34.38% (27.0-50.0) and 43.33% (31.6-54.2), respectively (p = 0.035). Histomorphometric analyses confirmed that the new bone area per total area increased from 34.78% (18.9-43.7) to 41.10% (23.5-54.0), respectively (p = 0.102). This trend proceeds after 40 days of osseointegration.DISCUSSIONThese findings suggest that topical delivery of a cathepsin K inhibitor can support the early osseointegration phase in an ectopic rodent implantation model.","PeriodicalId":10455,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Oral Implants Research","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144995877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The primary outcome was implant survival during the observation period. Secondary outcomes included marginal bone loss, occurrence of osteonecrosis, and factors influencing implant survival.ResultsA total of 92 patients (59 IR, 32 AR) with 369 dental implants were included in the study.
