Abstract

Background: Many factors affect how stable an implant is, including number of the teeth and dental tissue condition. This study aimed to investigate the relation between the implant stability over number of remaining functional teeth and caries experience. Patients and Method: The sample consisted of 103 healthy individuals with dental implants and in function for at least six months.  Decay, missing and filled index according to the criteria of WHO in 2013 were used to evaluate the caries experience. Based on pain evaluation and clinical mobility the dental implant was considered as failed, the dental implant's subclinical movement was assessed utilizing Periotest M® device. Results:13.29% of the total number of implants failed according to the clinical parameters, females showed a higher percentage of failure. Percentage of the decayed surfaces was documented to be higher at the lower level of stability, and the percentage for the filled surface showed a decrease as increase in the mobility of dental implants. The results showed that the percentage of patients with >5 functional tooth unit decreased with increase of mobility, in addition the result revealed a positive relation between increase in the number of implants and the Periotest value. Conclusion: This study concluded that implant stabilityis significantly affected by the number of implants inserted in a patient and increase of decayed surfaces was reported in the worst level of stability. Also, patients with >5 functional tooth units had a better dental implants stability than other even though the result were not significanti.
