Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the expression level and clinical significance of inflammatory factors and biochemical markers in gingival crevicular fluid during different crown-binding styles in dental implant patients. A total of 38 patients with posterior tooth loss and implant repair were recruited and divided into two groups according to the different ways of crown bonding, including 19 prostheses (19 patients) in the adhesive retainer group and 19 prostheses (19 patients) in the modified adhesive retainer group. Moreover, the peri-implant gingival sulcus fluids of each group of patients were collected at 7, 15, 30, 60, and 90 d of post-treatment, and the expression level of each cytokine as well as biochemical marker were analyzed by enzyme-linked adsorption method, respectively. Compared with the control group, the peri-implant plaque index and gingival bleeding index were decreased in the observation group. In addition, the secretion of peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group. The level of IL-6, TNF-α expressions in peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid were gradually decreased with follow-up time, and the rate of decline gets slow at 15 h after operation. The TGFα in peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid in the two groups began to increase at 7 d, reached a peak at about 15 d, then slowly decreased and stabilized after 60 d. While the OCN was gradually increased during the whole detection process, slowly released before 30 d, then increasingly released and maintained at a peak state after 60 d. All the above differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Different crown-binding patterns of implant teeth have a significant effect on the secretion amount of peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid and the expression level of inflammatory cytokines as well as biochemical markers.
