The potential for bone regeneration with implantoplasty alone has not yet been studied. This research aimed to evaluate long-term changes in peri-implant bone levels without using regenerative materials. 56 patients (70 implants) were included in the study and were followed for up to 10 years, with a mean observation time of 59 months (~5 years). The implants were evaluated retrospectively through a radiographic, as well as clinical (bleeding on probing and suppuration) analysis. Out of the 70 implants, 11 (15.7%) were lost due to disease recurrence and additional bone loss. One implant (1.4%) experienced up to 1.0 mm of bone loss, 15 implants (21.4%) showed no change in marginal bone levels (MBL), and 43 implants (61.5%) gained bone up to 4.8 mm, all without the use of any graft material or membrane. The overall mean MBL change for the remaining 59 implants at the end of the follow-up period (84.3%) was a gain of 1.27 mm. Implantoplasty alone without osseous surgery, flap repositioning, or using graft material or membrane; may be a viable option for managing peri-implantitis defects. However, future randomized clinical trials with larger sample sizes are necessary to validate current findings.</p>","PeriodicalId":94231,"journal":{"name":"The International journal of periodontics & restorative dentistry","volume":"0 0","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142869832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This scoping review aims to describe the mandibular incisive nerve anatomy related to the potential interference in implant therapy. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in the following databases: MEDLINE (via PubMed), Web of Science, and Scopus. This scoping review was structured according to the Joanna Briggs Institute method. Thirteen studies were included in the review. All of the studies were observational cohort anatomical studies, carried out mainly by CBCT and on cadavers. A total of 1,471 patients/cadavers were studied.

Damage to the mandibular incisive nerve due to implant placement could be present, but it is necessary to conduct more studies focusing on assessing mandibular incisive nerve damage to understand the clinical relevance of this nerve and its associated morbidities, such as neurosensorial alterations.
