Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the success rates of dental implants in patients with diabetes, considering factors such as implant survival.

Material and methods:A total of 50 patients (23 men and 27 women), aged 30 to 70 years, participated in the study, during which 75 dental implants were placed. Comprehensive medical histories were obtained, and laboratory investigations, including HbA1c assessments, were conducted. The findings revealed a correlation between HbA1c levels and the incidence of complications relative to the number of implants. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software.

Results:Among the biologic complications observed, peri-implantitis had the highest occurrence, affecting 40% of patients and 44.44% of implants. Peri-implant mucositis was noted in 26.67% of patients and 20% of implants. Mucosal recession was reported in 16.67% of patients and 13.33% of implants. Similarly, crestal bone loss affected 16.67% of patients and 22.22% of implants.

Conclusion:Implant failure rates varied across HbA1c levels, indicating that factors beyond glycemic control may influence outcomes. The high prevalence of biologic complications highlights the need for regular monitoring and preventive care to enhance implant success.
