A microtomographic and histopathological evaluation of dental cements as late-stage peri-implant complication in a rat model

Cement mediated peri-implantitis accounts for 1.9–75% of dental implant failures associated with peri-implant diseases. This study evaluated the biological impact of dental cements on osseointegrated implants using Lewis rats. Twenty-two rats were distributed into 6 groups: negative control (NC) sof...

Description
Summary:Cement mediated peri-implantitis accounts for 1.9–75% of dental implant failures associated with peri-implant diseases. This study evaluated the biological impact of dental cements on osseointegrated implants using Lewis rats. Twenty-two rats were distributed into 6 groups: negative control (NC) soft diet (SD), and hard diet (HD); positive control SD and HD (n = 3); Implant + bio-ceramic Cement (BC) SD and HD which included contralateral Sham sites (n = 5). Titanium implants were placed on either side of the maxillae and allowed to heal for 14 days. Later, both sides of experimental groups underwent a re-entry surgery to simulate clinical cementation. The right side received 0.60 mg of BC. At 14 days post cement application, maxillae were harvested for clinical, microtomographic, and histological evaluations. Clinical and microtomographic evaluations indicated evidence of extensive inflammation and circumferential bone resorption around BC implants in comparison to NC. Histology revealed cement particles surrounded by inflammatory infiltrate in the implant area accompanied by biofilm for SD groups. Both sides of BC indicated intensive bone resorption accompanied by signs of osteolysis when compared to NC. Cemented groups depicted significantly lower bone to implant contact when compared to NC. In conclusion, residual cement extravasation negatively impacted osseointegrated implants after re-entry surgeries.
