Factors in implant integration failure after bone grafting: an osteometric and endocrinologic matched analysis.
In a retrospective analysis of 49 patients who received bone graft augmentation to the maxillary sinuses in conjunction with implant insertion, 11 patients had a significantly reduced success rate. The aim of the present study was to determine whether bone quality, as assessed by osteometry and selected haematologic and urinary tests, influences the integration of implants, and whether such data can be prognostically useful. Relative bone mass density (BMD%) differed significantly among these patients as compared to age- and sex-matched control patients receiving the same reconstructive treatment (P=0.01). Other parameters tested did not demonstrate any significant differences. In addition to local complications, general disorders, such as osteoporosis, must be considered in cases of excessive implant loss.
