“…During the follow-up visits, the periodontal status related to each implant was evaluated by measuring their pocket depth and analyzing their gingival and plaque indices. The obtained results were consistent with the previously obtained data by Romeo et al (10) and Dhaliwal et al (11) They found that there was no significant difference in primary stability between MDIs and conventional implants. According to the obtained results, the marginal bone loss in group I (conventional implant) was less than in group II (Mini implants) after threeand nine-months post-operation.…”

Introduction:Replacing lost teeth by employing dental implants has represented a challenge since ancient times. Using mini-implants is more favorable than conventional ones, not only for surgeons but also for patients. Aim: The current study aimed to compare the conventional and mini dental implants regarding primary stability, vertical bone loss after three-and nine-month post-surgery, plaque index, gingival index, and pocket depth in three-and nine-month. Materials and Methods: The current study used two types of dental implants, conventional dental implants (Dentium super line) and mini dental implants (Dentium slim line). Accordingly, two examination groups were defined, Group I and Group II. Each group included eight dental implants in healthy patients aged 31-48. All implants were subjected to clinical and radiographic examinations either before surgery or after surgery. Both conventional and mini-implants were checked based on primary stability, vertical bone loss after three-and nine-months post-surgery, plaque index, gingival index, and pocket depth in three-and nine-months. Results:The results showed no significant differences between the conventional and mini dental implants regarding the primary stability and vertical bone loss in three-and nine months. Also, clinically there is no significant difference in plaque index, gingival index, and pocket depth. Conclusion: The mini-implant can be a promising alternative when the ridge width does not accommodate the conventional type.

Survival and stability of strategic mini-implants with immediate or delayed loading under removable partial dentures: a 3-year randomized controlled clinical trial

et al. 2022

Objectives Stability values of mini-implants (MIs) are ambiguous. Survival data for MIs as supplementary abutments in reduced dentitions are not available. The aim of this explorative research was to estimate the 3-year stability and survival of strategic MIs after immediate and delayed loading by existing removable partial dentures (RPDs). Material and methods In a university and three dental practices, patients with unfavorable tooth distributions received supplementary MIs with diameters of 1.8, 2.1, and 2.4 mm. The participants were randomly allocated to group A (if the insertion torque ≥ 35 Ncm: immediate loading by housings; otherwise, immediate loading by RPD soft relining was performed) or delayed loading group B. Periotest values (PTVs) and resonance frequency analysis (RFA) values were longitudinally compared using mixed models. Results A total of 112 maxillary and 120 mandibular MIs were placed under 79 RPDs (31 maxillae). The 1st and 3rd quartile of the PTVs ranged between 1.7 and 7.8, and the RFA values ranged between 30 and 46 with nonrelevant group differences. The 3-year survival rates were 92% in group A versus 95% in group B and 99% in the mandible (one failure) versus 87% in the maxilla (eleven failures among four participants). Conclusions Within the limitations of explorative analyses, there were no relevant differences between immediate and delayed loading regarding survival or stability of strategic MIs. Clinical relevance The stability values for MIs are lower than for conventional implants. The MI failure rate in the maxilla is higher than in the mandible with cluster failure participants.
