Abstract

Kaybedilen
doğal dişlerin yerine dental implantlar başarıyla uygulanmaktadır. Ancak, aşırı
kemik kaybı standart implant uygulamaları öncesinde ileri cerrahi işlemler
gerektirebilmektedir. Son dönemde, ileri cerrahinin dezavantajlarından kaçınmak
için kısa implantların kullanımları değerlendirilmektedir. Etkili ve pratik bir
uygulama sağlayan kısa implantların klinik başarıları araştırılmaktadır.
Çalışmalarda, implantların yüzey özelliği, kemik yapısı, marjinal kemik kaybı,
kron/implant oranı, implant üstü restorasyonların tasarımı ve periodontal
yapıların sağlığı başlıca değerlendirilen faktörlerdir. Bu derlemede, klinik
çalışmalar dikkate alınarak, kısa implant kavramı ve çalışmalarda
değerlendirilen faktörlerin kısa implantların başarısı ile ilişkisi
sunulacaktır.

Keywords

Kısa dental implantlar; marjinal kemik kaybı; kron/implant oranı.

Assesment of Short Dental Implants with Clinical Trials: A Review

Abstract

Dental
implants can be applied succesfully when natural teeth are lost. Hovewer,
excessive loss of bone can require advanced surgical treatments before dental
implants placement. Recently, use of short dental implants are evaluated to
avoid disadvantages of advanced surgical operations. Clinical success of short
implants is being explored, providing an effective and practical application.
In researches, surface properties of implants, bone characteristics,
marginal bone loss, crown/ implant ratio, design of implant restorations and
the health of periodontal structures are the main factors to be evaluated. In
this review, considering clinical studies, the concept of short implants will
be presented in relation to the success of the short implants in the factors
assessed in the studies.

Keywords

Short dental implants; marginal bone loss; crown/implant ratio.
