Análisis tridimensional de la posición de implantes oseointegrados unitarios mediante el uso de tomografías en centros radiológicos en Guayaquil 2023.

Abstract

Dental implant treatments are directly related to the osseointegration process, this process provides excellent results and a predictable long-term prognosis if the requirements are met. A correct placement of the implant is essential if you want to achieve functionality and aesthetics of the piece, also the anatomy and its elements must be respected. Objectives; Analyze three-dimensional images of the position of unitary osseointegrated implants through the use of tomography’s in radiological centers in Guayaquil 2023. Materials and methods; Tomography’s from the last 3 months of 2022 up to the present year were requested, which gives us a universe of 948 patient tomography’s. The inclusion and exclusion criteria gave us a total of 55 tomography’s which give us a quantity of 64 unitary dental implants. osseointegrated. The implants were measured in order to analyze their angulation, all the measurements were recorded in Excel and a table was created to better analyze whether the implants that were analyzed met the required parameters. Results; In total, 64 implants from 55 patients were evaluated, where 26 were men and 29 women, 42 were found in the maxilla and 22 in the mandible. At the time of evaluation, it was found that 77% of the implants were in malposition and 23% without malposition. Conclusion; In conclusion, in this study it was possible to find a high prevalence of three-dimensional positioning errors.
