Summary

This study examines the association between psychosocial stress and peri-implant diseases. Peri-implant diseases are inflammatory conditions affecting the tissues around dental implants and may contribute to implant failure. Stress-related hormones, including cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), may influence inflammatory responses in peri-implant tissues.

In this study, peri-implant sulcular fluid samples are collected from patients with peri-implant health, peri-implant mucositis, and peri-implantitis. Levels of cortisol, DHEA, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) are analyzed. Anxiety and depression levels are assessed using standardized questionnaires, and clinical peri-implant parameters are recorded.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between stress-related biomarkers, psychological status, and peri-implant health and disease.

Conditions

  • Peri-implantitis
  • Peri-implant Mucositis
  • Peri-Implant Health

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Psychological Assessment

Psychological status was evaluated using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Peri-implant Sulcular Fluid Biomarker Analysis

Peri-implant sulcular fluid samples were collected and analyzed for cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Peri-implant Clinical Examination

Clinical peri-implant parameters including plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing depth, clinical attachment level, and keratinized tissue width were recorded using a periodontal probe.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Radiographic Assessment

Marginal bone levels around dental implants were assessed using standardized periapical radiographs.
