Abstract

Objective: To determine the awareness levels of dentists about possible risk factors in order to prevent early implant losses.
Methods: The questionnaire form was directed to the participants online. Statistical analyzes were made with frequency analysis and Chi-square test.
Results: Majority of the participants usually (68.4%) prescribe amoxicillin (postoperatively 1 g 2x1) to patients in implant surgeries. While the rate of those who thought that prophylactic antibiotic therapy was mostly and always effective in preventing early implant loss was 17.6%, this rate was 42.7% for postoperative antibiotherapy applications. The highest rate of thinking that prophylactic antibiotherapy is effective in preventing early implant loss was found in the periodontology specialist (20.5%) group. Periodontology specialists (23.3%) were the group who thought that the effectiveness of postoperative antibiotherapy was the least in this regard. History of periodontitis (76.3%) and postoperative complication development (73.1%), diabetes (92.4%), smoking (89.8%) and osteoporosis (78.7%) were evaluated as the factors that have the most impact on early implant loss.
Conclusion: It is thought that the general knowledge level of the dentists participating in the survey about early implant loss is sufficient. We believe that it would be beneficial to organize postgraduate vocational training programs in order to eliminate the differences between the knowledge levels of dentists.
