Marginal bone loss around non-submerged implants is associated with salivary microbiome during bone healing

Abstract

Certain populations of bacteria found in saliva during dental implant procedures are associated with implant failure and bone loss. In non-submerged dental implant surgery, missing teeth are replaced with prosthetic teeth attached to screws implanted into bone. While these procedures are largely safe with predictable outcomes, some patients show bone loss around the implant site. Quan Yuan of Sichuan University, China, and colleagues analysed the bacterial content of saliva from 100 patients and found that the proportions of specific bacterial species in the samples bore significant correlation to the amount of bone loss the patients suffered. The team’s findings indicate that certain species of bacteria may be associated with poor dental surgery outcomes and provide a starting point for researchers investigating dental implant rejection.
