Abstract

Background: The impact of osteoporosis on implant treatment remains debatable among the science community, with the goal to evaluate long-term implant success rate in patients with osteoporosis. Methods: Patients who underwent dental implant treatment at least 4 years ago were divided into two groups [Test (osteoporosis/osteopenia) Group and Control Group] according to bone mineral density (BMD) measurements. Results: A total of 52 patients with a mean age of 59.51 ± 5.66 years (Test Group; 26 patients, mean age: 60.61; Control Group; 26 patients, mean age: 58.42) were included in the study. Implant survival rates were 96.2% and 100% with a mean follow-up 60.84 ± 22.13 and 60.07 ± 20.93 months in Test and Control Groups, respectively (P > 0.05). While peri-implant PI (plaque index) and PD (probing depth) were not different between the groups, BoP (bleeding on probing) was significantly higher in Test Group (P = 0,026). Although Cristal bone label (CBL) in Test Group was higher than Control Group (0.82 ± 0,63 mm and 0.44 ± 0,33 mm respectively), the difference was not found statistically significant (P = 0.069). Conclusions: The findings recommend that dental implant therapy is a reliable treatment method for those patients to improve the quality of life by increasing function and aesthetics.
