Bacterial colonization of the internal part of two‐stage implants. An in vivo study.

Quirynen, M., Van Steenberghe, D.·1993·Clinical Oral Implants Research

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the presence of microorganisms in the inner thread of the fixture (endosteal implant part) of the Brånemark™ system. In 9 volunteers the apical part of 2 abutment screws that had been in place for 3 months was examined by means of differential phase‐contrast microscopy. All screws harboured a significant quantity of micro‐organisms, mainly coccoid cells (86.2%) and nonmotile rods (12.3%). Motile organisms (1.3%) or spirochetes (0.1%) were only sporadically registered. A microbial leakage at the abutment/fixture interface probably is the most probable origin for this contamination.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
