Abstract

The purpose of the study is to investigate the relationship of peri-implantitis (PI) with FCGR2A and FCGR3A gene polymorphisms. One hundred and forty-four patients with PI and 136 patients without PI infection were selected. Gingival crevicular fluid samples were collected from the two groups. The FCGR2A and FCGR3A polymorphism in the two groups were measured. All volunteers were evaluated for periodontal status. The effect of polymorphisms on PI susceptibility was investigated by chi-square analysis and logistic regression. The frequency of FCGR2A rs1801274 GG genotype of PI group was higher than that of the control group, while the GA and AA genotype carriers were less in PI group. After adjusting for other clinical indicators, rs1801274 GA genotype, AA genotype, and the A allele were still negatively correlated with the onset of PI. FCGR3A rs396991 polymorphism was not associated with PI. FCGR2A rs1801274 polymorphism was significantly associated with PI in the Chinese Han population, and GG genotype might be a genetic risk factor for PI.
