Summary

The impact of smoking on dental implant failure has been a constant topic of discussion for the past decade and the current literature confronts the inconclusive evidence of tobacco for a marginal bone loss risk factor. The aim of the present investigation is to determine the association between tobacco and marginal bone loss or implant failure in a sample of patients who had received implant-supported restorative therapy in the Dentistry Hospital of the University of Barcelona (Campus of Bellvitge).

Considering that peri-implant marginal bone is essential for dental implant success, in this study we would like to establish the relationship between marginal bone loss around implants and smoking, in our own population study, in order to improve the prognosis of implant success in smoking patients.

On the other hand, knowing the negative effect tobacco has on marginal bone loss in dental implants, we will be able to better predict peri-implant bone loss and reveal the probability of implant failure in short and long-term in smokers. By informing the patient correctly, we can raise awareness and create an additional reason for them to stop smoking, or at least reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke per day.
