“…[ 24 25 ] Some of the factors that negatively influence the selection of implants by patients are fear of surgery, high cost, longer duration of treatment. [ 26 27 ] All these factors may have influenced the elderly population in this study in opting for nonimplant type prostheses.…”

Background: Dental implants (DI) are gaining popularity among the general population, and special consideration has been given to the geriatric population in the replacement of missing teeth subject to their medical stability. The study aimed to assess the awareness, knowledge, and acceptance regarding DI among the geriatric population of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was carried out through face-to-face interviews using a pretested and standardized questionnaire by calibrated interviewers. Participants of age >58 years who have not undergone any implant or bone graft procedures attending different prosthodontic clinics in Jeddah were recruited according to availability after obtaining consent. Responses received were converted into digital format and subjected to statistical analysis. Results: The knowledge related to DI was not satisfactory, and only 4.5% showed good knowledge. The willingness to replace the current prosthesis with DI was found in 49.6%, and it was also observed that 40% of the participants were using some tooth-supported fixed dental prosthesis. Only 41.3% and 31% were aware of bone graft and sinus lift procedures related to DI. Conclusion: Even though most participants were aware of DI, the knowledge related to it was little satisfactory. Older people should be appropriately explained about the best treatment choice for teeth replacement by connecting to their current systemic health condition with its benefits and long-term effects. Unexpectedly, the awareness related to bone graft and sinus lift procedures related to DI was found to be relatively acceptable as well as the willingness to accept bone graft if needed for DI placement was observed.

Amaç: Dental implantlar; eksik dişlerin fonksiyonel rehabilitasyonu ve hastaya eski fonksiyon, estetiğini tekrar kazandırmak amacıyla uygulanan çene kemiklerinin içine yerleştirilen cerrahi materyallerdir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’de bireylerin dental implantlar hakkındaki bilgi düzeyini ve farkındalığını değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamıza 161 kadın 114 erkek olmak üzere, toplam 275 birey katıldı. Katılımcılar demografik verileri de içeren 16 soruluk bir anket doldurdu. İstatistiksel analizler için Ki-kare testi ve Pearson Korelasyon testi kullanıldı. Anket kapsamında bireylere dental implant farkındalığını ve bilgi düzeylerini ölçen sorular yöneltildi. İmplant hakkında bilgiyi hangi kaynaktan öğrendikleri veya kimden duymak istedikleri, implantın ömrü ve dezavantajları, tedavi seçeneği olarak implant tedavisini tercih edip etmeyecekleri gibi sorular yöneltildi. Bulgular: Katılımcıların %86,2’sinde dental implant farkındalığı olduğu tespit edildi. İmplant tedavisi tercih etmenin yaş, cinsiyet, gelir düzeyi ve eğitim düzeyi ile ilişkili olmadığı görüldü (p>0.05). Sonuç: Çalışmanın sonuçları dental implant tedavisi ile ilgili farkındalık seviyesinin arttığını, ancak hala sınırlı olduğunu, ayrıntılı bilgilerin ise eksik olduğunu göstermektedir. Farkındalığın artırılması için diş hekimlerine daha fazla iş düşmektedir.

“…Teeth without periapical lesions prior to Root Canal Treatment (RCT) have higher success rates than those with lesions [1]. Usually, RCT with final restoration is less costly than an Implant Supported Crown (ISC) prosthesis [2]. Considering the number of procedures that accompany either mentioned treatments can be a determining factor in what a patient can afford and therefore becomes part of the decision as to which treatment is provided [1 -3].…”

“…Based on an American Dental Association survey in the United States, initial (not lifetime) costs were compared for a simple extraction, extraction then an Implant Supported Crown (ISC), and extraction followed by a three-unit Fixed Partial Dentures (FPD) with a high noble FPD restoration. They concluded that a slight difference in the cost but a time factor is different [2,8].…”

Objectives: The intent of this study was to evaluate and compare the preferences and treatment choices between dentists and dental interns with regard to the following different treatment modalities: Root Canal Treatment (RCT) with restoration versus extraction with Implant-Supported Crown (ISC) or surgical treatment in relation to the given case scenarios. Methods: The questionnaire was presented as an online survey with a case scenario. The total number of the respondents were 165. The four clinical case scenarios included an anterior and posterior tooth having apical periodontitis, with and without previous RCT. The treatment options were as follows: RCT with restoration, extraction then implant, and surgical treatment. Results: A total of 165 dentists and dental interns were included in this study. A hundred and three 62.4% respondents were dentists, 60; 36.3% were males and 105; 63.7% were females. Most of the respondents graduated from the College of Dentistry, Jazan University (93.9%). The highest percentages and numbers for Anterior Teeth (AT) were selected in related to the RCT and restorations in the four scenarios among gender, dentists, and interns, with no considerable differences. A high percentage of RCT and restoration option was recorded for Posterior Teeth (PT) with no previous restoration and around 50% for the same treatment modality to posterior teeth with previous restorations. For Future Planning Postgraduate Studies (FPPS), it was obvious that most of the selected specialties agreed with the RCT and restorations choice. Conclusion: All dentists and interns in both genders preferred RCT with restorations over extraction, and then ISC in the AT with and without previous RCTs. In the PT with no previous RCT, the participants agreed that RCT with restorations is superior to other choices. Among the FPPS, the respondents demonstrated an absolute agreement to RCT and restorations as a treatment of choice for different scenarios. Clinical Significance: Dentists should preserve the natural teeth by RCT with restoration as the first treatment choice followed by other choices. The nonsurgical approach should always be adopted as a routine measure in PA lesions of endodontic origin. Conservative orthograde endodontic therapy demonstrates favorable outcomes with a regular periodic review and assessment of the healing process of PA lesions.
