TO EVALUATE RISK MARKERS OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AND IT'S ASSOCIATION WITH PERI IMPLANT DISEASE- A CLINICAL STUDY.

Abstract

Background: The goal of this research was to determine whether measures used to assess a
person's overall cardiovascular health, known as cardiovascular risk markers, are associated
with peri-implant disorders in patients with dental implants.
Methods: This clinical study was conducted on 40 subjects having peri-implantitis and periimplant mucositis. Clinical examination was carried out to record the peri-implant probing
pocket depths. Serum biochemical risk factors such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL)
cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, total cholesterol,
vitamin D, and uric acid, which are considered as Cardiovascular risk indicators were
assessed.
Results: The peri-implantitis group had the lowest KMW (keratinized mucosa width). The
peri-implantitis groups had considerably higher triglyceride and uric acid levels than the other
groups. In the group with peri-implantitis, the lowest amounts of vitamin D were found. A
positive correlation was discovered between triglyceride and uric acid levels and peri-implant
disorders.
Conclusion: The risk for peri-implant and cardiovascular disease is elevated in people with
high triglyceride and uric acid levels. Patients' serum biomarkers should be examined before
undergoing dental implant surgery
