Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to provide the latest updates on the therapeutic effectiveness of keratinized mucosa (KM) augmentation using autogenous soft tissue grafts for dental implants retaining prostheses.
Study selection: A systematic search of electronic databases was conducted on autogenous soft tissue grafts to create and/or augment KM for functioning dental implants. Two investigators independently extracted data from the selected 11 clinical studies, including 290 participants, from the initially retrieved 573 publications.
Results: A lack of KM surrounding dental implants was associated with greater mucosal inflammation. A free gingival graft (FGG) was used to increase the KM width, and a connective tissue graft (CTG) was used to manage peri-implant mucosal recession (MR). The weighted mean gain in KM was 2.6 mm from the selected FGG studies, with a significant reduction in mucosal inflammation and no changes in crestal bone levels for up to 4 years. The weighted mean reduction in MR was 2 mm in selected CTG studies.
Conclusions: A lack of KM negatively affects soft tissue health around dental implants. FGG was effective in increasing KM and reducing mucosal inflammation, whereas CTG was effective in decreasing MR.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Prosthodontic Research is published 4 times annually, in January, April, July, and October, under supervision by the Editorial Board of Japan Prosthodontic Society, which selects all materials submitted for publication.
Journal of Prosthodontic Research originated as an official journal of Japan Prosthodontic Society. It has recently developed a long-range plan to become the most prestigious Asian journal of dental research regarding all aspects of oral and occlusal rehabilitation, fixed/removable prosthodontics, oral implantology and applied oral biology and physiology. The Journal will cover all diagnostic and clinical management aspects necessary to reestablish subjective and objective harmonious oral aesthetics and function.
The most-targeted topics:
1) Clinical Epidemiology and Prosthodontics
2) Fixed/Removable Prosthodontics
3) Oral Implantology
4) Prosthodontics-Related Biosciences (Regenerative Medicine, Bone Biology, Mechanobiology, Microbiology/Immunology)
5) Oral Physiology and Biomechanics (Masticating and Swallowing Function, Parafunction, e.g., bruxism)
6) Orofacial Pain and Temporomandibular Disorders (TMDs)
7) Adhesive Dentistry / Dental Materials / Aesthetic Dentistry
8) Maxillofacial Prosthodontics and Dysphagia Rehabilitation
9) Digital Dentistry
Prosthodontic treatment may become necessary as a result of developmental or acquired disturbances in the orofacial region, of orofacial trauma, or of a variety of dental and oral diseases and orofacial pain conditions.
Reviews, Original articles, technical procedure and case reports can be submitted. Letters to the Editor commenting on papers or any aspect of Journal of Prosthodontic Research are welcomed.
