| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and histological changes of peri-implant tissuse associated with plaque accumulation. Two single-crystal sapphire implants were inserted into the mandibular edentulous area and the super-structure was set 1 month postinsertion in each of 9 monkeys. Plaque was allowed to accumulate at one side by placing ligature around the implant and natural teeth without plaque control and at the other side plaque controlwas continued for 9 months. Both of the implant and natural teeth with plaque accumulation showed increase in clinical parameters. Histologically, various degrees of inflammatory reaction were seen in the gingiva, but bone-implant interface was intact. On the other hand, the implant and teeth with plaque control showed low values in clinical parameters. Inflammation was scarcely seen in the tissue around implant and natural teeth.
These findings demonstrate that plaque control in essential for maintaining health of peri-implant tissuse and suggest that peri-implant gingiva possesses simolar barrier properties against microbial invasion to those of the inherent gingiva.
