Abstract

Statement of problem: Flapless implant surgery using a soft tissue punch device requires a circumferential excision of the mucosa at the implant site. To date, Although there have been several reports on clinical outcomes of flapless implant surgeries, there are no published reports that address the appropriate size of the soft tissue punch for peri-implant tissue healing. Purpose: In an attempt to help produce guidelines for the use of soft tissue punches, this animal study was undertaken to examine the effect of soft tissue punch size on the healing of peri-implant tissue in a canine mandible model. Material and methods: Bilateral, edentulated, flat alveolar ridges were created in the mandibles of six mongrel dogs. After a three month healing period, three fixtures (diameter, 4.0 mm) were placed on each side of the mandible using 3 mm, 4 mm, or 5 mm soft tissue punches. During subsequent healing periods, the peri-implant mucosa was evaluated using clinical, radiological, and histometric parameters, which included Gingival Index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth, marginal bone loss, and vertical dimension measurements of the peri-implant tissues. Results: The results showed significant differences (P <0.05) between the 3 mm, 4 mm and 5 mm tissue punch groups for the length of the junctional epithelium, probing depth, and marginal bone loss during healing periods after implant placement. When the mucosa was punched with a 3 mm tissue punch, the length of the junctional epithelium was shorter, the probing depth was shallower, and less crestal bone loss occurred than when using a tissue punch with a diameter $\geq$ 4 mm. Conclusion: Within the limit of this study, the size of the soft tissue punch plays an important role in achieving optimal healing. Our findings support the use of tissue punch that 1 mm smaller than implant itself to obtain better peri-implant tissue healing around flapless implants.

연구목적: 연조직 펀치를 이용한 무피판 임플란트 수술법은 임플란트를 식립할 부위에 환상형의 절개를 필요로 한다. 이에 연조직 펀치의 사용을 위한 지침을 만드는 데 도움을 주고자 성견의 하악에서 임플란트 주위 조직의 치유에 대한 연조직 펀치의 영향을 조사하는 실험이 수행되었다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 6 마리의 성견에서 하악의 양측에 무치악의 평편한 치조제를 만들었다. 3 개월 동안의 치유 기간 후, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm 연조직 펀치를 사용하여 절개하고 양측에 각각 3개의 임플란트 (직경 4.0 mm)를 식립하였다. 그리고 즉시 치유지대주 (직경 4.5 mm)를 연결하였다. 그 후 치유 기간 동안 임플란트 주위 점막을 임상적, 방사선학적 그리고 조직학적 방법으로 평가하였다. 평가 요소는 치은 지수, 탐침시 출혈, 치주 탐침 깊이, 변연골 상실 그리고 임플란트 주위 조직의 수직적인 변화이다. 결과: 임플란트 식립 후 치유 기간 동안에 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm 연조직 펀치 군 사이에 접합 상피의 길이, 치주 탐침 깊이, 변연골 상실이 유의할 만한 차이가 관찰되었다 (P <.05). 3 mm 연조직 펀치를 사용한 경우가 4 mm 이상의 연조직 펀치를 사용한 것에 비해 상대적으로 접합 상피의 깊이는 짧았고, 치주 탐침 깊이는 얕았으며, 변연골 흡수량이 적었다. 결론: 무피판 임플란트 수술에서 연조직 펀치의 직경은 최적의 연조직 밀폐의 형성과 연조직의 치유에 있어 중요한 역할을 한다. 선택된 치유지대주보다 약 1 mm 작은 직경의 연조직 펀치를 사용하는 경우 임플란트 주변 점막과 긴밀한 접촉을 이룰 수 있고 창상 치유가 가장 양호 하다.
