ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
Cortisol levels remain uninvestigated in peri-implant sulcular fluid (PISF) of patients with and without peri-implantitis. The present investigation investigated levels of cortisol in PISF among controls (individuals without peri-implantitis) and patients with peri-implantitis.METHODS:
The patient population comprised of participants with and without peri-implantitis (groups 1 and 2, respectively). Demographic information and data related to implant characteristics was recorded. Peri-implant radiographic (crestal bone loss [CBL]) and clinical (modified plaque and bleeding on probing indices [PI and BOP], and probing depth [PD]) and parameters were assessed. In all patients, levels of cortisol were measured in the PISF, which was collected using standard methods. Data normality and group comparisons were assessed, and multiple logistic regression was performed. Probability values less than 0.01 were nominated as being significant.RESULTS:
Eighty-eight individuals (44 and 44 in groups 1 and 2, correspondingly) were included. In group 1, 24 and 20 participants were males and females, and there were 22 and 22 males and females in group 2. Mean ages were analogous in both groups. Peri-implant BOP (p < .001); CBL (p < .001); PI (p < .001); and PD (p < .001) were higher among patients in group 1 compared with group 2. The volume of PISF (p < .001) collected and its concentrations of cortisol (p < .001) were significantly higher among patients in group 1 compared with group 2. Regression analysis showed that CBL and PD directly correlated with increased PISF levels of cortisol among participants with peri-implantitis.CONCLUSION:
Within the limits of the present study, it remains debatable whether or not PISF cortisol levels vary among patients with and without peri-implantitis. Further studies are needed to evaluate the role of PISF levels of cortisol in the diagnosis of peri-implantitis.Palavras-chave
