Experimental Conical-Head Abutment Screws On The Microbial Leakage Through The Implant-Abutment Interface: An Invitro Analysis Using Target-Specific Dna Probes
CLINICAL ORAL IMPLANTS RESEARCH(2017)
摘要
ObjectivesThe aim of this invitro study was to identify and quantify up to 38 microbial species from human saliva penetrating through the implant-abutment interface in two different implant connections, external hexagon and tri-channel internal connection, both with conventional flat-head or experimental conical-head abutment screws.Material and methodsForty-eight two-part implants with external hexagon (EH; n=24) or tri-channel internal (TI; n=24) connections were investigated. Abutments were attached to implants with conventional flat-head or experimental conical-head screws. After saliva incubation, Checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization was used to identify and quantify up to 38 bacterial colonizing the internal parts of the implants. Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Bonferroni's post-tests for multiple comparisons was used for statistical analysis.ResultsTwenty-four of thirty-eight species, including putative periodontal pathogens, were found colonizing the inner surfaces of both EH and TI implants. Peptostreptococcus anaerobios (P=0.003), Prevotella melaninogenica (P<0.0001), and Candida dubliniensis (P<0.0001) presented significant differences between different groups. Means of total microbial count (x10(4), SD) for each group were recorded as follows: G1 (0.27 +/- 2.04), G2 (0 +/- 0), G3 (1.81 +/- 7.50), and G4 (0.35 +/- 1.81).ConclusionsDifferences in the geometry of implant connections and abutment screws have impacted the microbial leakage through the implant-abutment interface. Implants attached with experimental conical-head abutment screws showed lower counts of microorganisms when compared with conventional flat-head screws.
