Abstract

Purpose
The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the survival and failure rates of RESTORE^® implants over a follow-up period of 10–15 years at a university dental hospital and to investigate the factors affecting the survival rate of these dental implants.
Methods
A total of 247 RESTORE ^® dental implants with a resorbable blast media (RBM) surface inserted in 86 patients between March 2006 and April 2011 at the Department of Periodontology of Seoul National University Dental Hospital were included. Patients with follow-up periods of less than 10 years were excluded, and data analysis was conducted based on dental records and radiographs.
Results
Over a 10- to 15-year period, the cumulative survival rate of the implants was 92.5%. Seventeen implants (6.88%) were explanted due to implant fracture (n=10, 4.05%), periimplantitis (n=6, 2.43%), and screw fracture (n=1, 0.4%). The results of univariate regression analysis using a Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that implants placed in male patients (hazard ratio [HR], 4.542; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.305–15.807; P=0.017) and implants that supported removable prostheses (HR, 15.498; 95% CI, 3.105–77.357; P=0.001) showed statistically significant associations with implant failure.
Conclusions
Within the limitations of this retrospective study, the RESTORE^® dental implant with an RBM surface has a favorable survival rate with stable clinical outcomes.Purpose: The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the survival and failure rates of RESTORE^® implants over a follow-up period of 10–15 years at a university dental hospital and to investigate the factors affecting the survival rate of these dental implants.
