Background and Aims: With increasing age and inability to maintain good oral hygiene, the chances of tooth loss increase and the need for dental implants will increase in the future. It also increases the risk of developing peripheral implants, especially at older ages in the failure of implant treatments. Recently, the high prevalence of cardiovascular disease and peri-implantitis in the elderly has been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cardiovascular disease on the peri-implantitis in people with failed dental implants.
Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, the files of patients referred to Shahid Montazeri Dental Clinic from 2009 to 2018 whose their failed implants were extracted, were collected. There were a total of 793 people with failed dental implants. The variables of this study were demographic information including age and sex, health status in terms of cardiovascular disease and peri-implantitis, which were identified and then statistically analyzed by examining the files of patients with these two variables. Data were statistically analyzed by SPSS25 statistical software and Chi-square was used to determine the effective variables.
Results: A total of 793 patients had failed dental implants, including 368 women (46.4%) and 425 men (53.6%) with an average age of 50.79 years. 42 patients (5.3%) had heart disease and 44 (5.5%) had peri-implantitis. According to the Chi-squared test, the significance level was less than 0.05 (P=0.011).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the cardiovascular disease and peri-implantitis were significantly related.
