BACKGROUND: The platform switching concept was recently introduced to
implant dentistry involving the reduction of restoration abutment diameter
with respect to the diameter of dental implant. Long-term follow-up around
these implants showed higher levels of bone preservation and proper stress
distribution and improved esthetics.
AIM: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the changes in bone
height by means of radiographic examination around platform switched implant
supporting mandibular overdentures in controlled diabetic patients.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Fourteen male complete edentulous patients were
selected and enrolled in a follow-up study plan. Split mouth technique was
applied; one side implant chosen randomly with Platelet-rich-plasma (PRP)
and the other without PRP, bone height changes was assessed by Cone Beam
Computed Tomography (CBCT) radiographic examination after 3 months, 6
months, 9 months and 1 year later.
RESULTS: There was increase in bone height loss in both sides but
with no statistical significance difference between the two sides after 3
months, 6 months, 9 months and 1 year respectively.
CONCLUSION: The result of this article satisfied the patients both
esthetically and functionally with recorded increase in bone height loss.
