Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate interleukin-1(IL-1) gene group polymorphisms in patients with peri-implantitis and to compare them with patients with peri-implant health (control group), taking into account smoking status, gender, age and history of periodontitis.The aim of this investigation is also to look at the levels of the inflammatory response markers IL-1 beta, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) in the peri-implant crevicular fluid of patients with healthy oral implants in comparison with individuals with peri-implantitis, under consideration of the patients´ individual IL-1 genotype. The main hypothesis is that individuals carrying the polymorphism in the IL-1 gene cluster are susceptible to develop peri-implantitis through altered IL-1 and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) production. A second hypothesis is that both in healthy individuals and especially pronounced in patients having peri-implantitis, an IL-1-positive genotype will result in higher levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1 beta, PGE2 and TNF alpha) than an IL-1- negative genotype. Patients included in the study will be recruited from the Dental Clinic Egas Moniz implant maintenance program and will only be used for this study. All possible candidates will receive a questionnaire and if the patient's medical history is in accordance with study inclusion criteria, and if they agree to participate, informed consent will be signed. All clinical data will be collected by the same examiner. Genes IL-1A and IL-1B control the production of the proinflammatory proteins, IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta, respectively. IL-1RN gene controls the synthesis of the IL-1Ra, which impedes the function of IL-1alpha and IL-1beta by competing for receptor binding. Polymorphisms of the following genes will be analyzed: IL-1A-889, IL-1B + 3954, IL-1B-511 and IL-1 RN from patients with peri-implantitis and peri-implant health. For the investigation of genetic polymorphisms, it will be collected a sample of cells from the jugal mucosa with the aid of a swab. For the biochemical analysis of the inflammatory mediators IL-1 beta, TNF alpha and PGE2 a peri-implant crevicular fluid collection will be performed by inserting paper strips into peri-implant sulcus or pocket, in situations of peri-implantitis from the most affected location, while in situations of peri-implant health from the mesio-buccal location.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Frequency of Participants with polymorphism in the IL-1 gene cluster

    In the IL-1A-889 gene, two possible alleles are expected to be found, allele 1 (83 base pairs (bp) + 16 bp), allele 2 - allele with nucleotide sequence changed (99 bp). In the IL-1B + 3954 gene, two possible alleles are expected to be found, allele 1 (12 bp + 85 bp + 97 bp), allele 2 (12 bp + 182 bp). In the IL-1B-511 gene, two possible alleles are expected to be found, allele 1 (190bp + 114bp), allele 2 (304 bp). In relation to the polymorphism of the IL-1RN gene, 5 possible alleles are expected to be found according to the repeated base pair sequences: allele 1 (410 bp), allele 2 (240 bp), allele 3 (500 bp), allele 4 (325 bp), allele 5 (595 bp).

Study Arms (2)

Peri-implant health

Includes patients with peri implant mucosa without inflammatory signs and absence of peri-implant bone loss.

Genetic: Analysis of genetic polymorphismsOther: Biochemical analysis

Peri-implantitis

Includes patients with bleeding and / or suppuration on probing, probing depth equal or greater than 6mm and bone loss equal to or greater than 3mm.

The genetic analysis will be done with the DNA extraction technique followed by PCR-RFLP techniques (polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism).

Peri-implant healthPeri-implantitis

For the biochemical analysis of the inflammatory mediators IL-1beta, TNF-alpha and PGE2 a peri-implant crevicular fluid collection will be performed by inserting paper strips into peri-implant sulcus or pocket, in situations of peri-implantitis from the most affected location, while in situations of peri-implant health from the mesio-buccal location.
