Implant surface coating and bone quality-related survival outcomes through 36 months post-placement of root-form endosseous dental implants.
Survival rates from placement to 36 months were reported for the ongoing Dental Implant Clinical Research Group studies of root-form endosseous dental implants. Failure rates for all implants were similar in bone qualities 1 and 2 (6.2% and 6.7%, respectively) and slightly higher in bone qualities 3 and 4 (8.5% and 8.7%, respectively). Hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants had an overall failure rate of 3.9% over 36 months in all bone qualities combined, while non-coated implants had a 13.4% failure rate for the same parameters. For each bone quality, there was a significant difference in implant survival for the non-coated implants (P < 0.01). The highest failure rates for non-coated implants were in bone qualities 3 and 4 (19.1% and 25.5%, respectively). No major difference in survival was found for HA-coated implants placed in each bone quality. Possible reasons for the differences in survival are discussed.
