Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • papilla height

    Presence/absence of papilla height was assessed visually

    Between June 2018 and June 2020.

  • Modified Plaque Index (mPI)

    plaque accumulation around the marginal peri-implant tissue was assessed

    Between June 2018 and June 2020.

  • Modified Sulcus Bleeding Index

    the bleeding tendency of the marginal peri-implant tissue was evaluated

    Between June 2018 and June 2020.

  • Probing Depth (PD, in millimeters)

    PD was assessed at the mid-buccal, mid-oral, mesial and distal aspects of each implant with a standard periodontal probe, and final value was determined by the average of four aspects

    Between June 2018 and June 2020.

  • Gingival margin level

    Gingival margin level was assessed by calculating the vertical distance between the most apical point of gingival margin at the buccal aspect of the crown and line connecting the peak of the adjacent mesial and distal natural teeth

    Between June 2018 and June 2020.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • first bone-implant contact (fBIC) and implant shoulder (IS)

    Between June 2018 and June 2020.

Study Arms (2)

thick-gingiva group

After insertion of the probe into the facial aspect of the sulcus, the peri-implant biotype can be categorized as thick-gingiva (outline if the probe cannot be seen through the gingival)

thin-gingiva group

After insertion of the probe into the facial aspect of the sulcus, the peri-implant biotype can be categorized as thin-gingiva (outline of the probe can be seen through the gingival)

Diagnostic Test: The biotype of gingival

Interventions

The biotype of gingival was also determined by periodontal probe.

thin-gingiva group

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

The study samples were comprised of patients who had been treated with one bone-level implant (Osstem, Korea) insertion in the first molar region. Fifty-five subjects were selected from the patients who came to the Department of Oral Implantology, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University in China between June 2018 and June 2020.

You may qualify if:

  • Good general health, no chronic systemic diseases.
  • All subjects included in this study needed to have one missing premolar or molar teeth with adjacent natural teeth.
  • All subjects included in the study had been treated with one bone-level implant insertion in the premolar or molar region.

You may not qualify if:

  • Active periodontal infections.
  • Heavy smoking habit (\>10 cigarettes per day).
