PG - 969-975 LID - 10.1002/cre2.587 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVES: The aim of this prospective case-control study was to compare the development of implant stability quotients of narrow diameter implants in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and healthy individuals within the first 3 months after implant insertion. METHODS: Sixteen patients with T2DM (HbA1C > 6.5%) as test group and 16 nondiabetic patients (HbA1C < 5.9%) as the control group were evaluated. All patients received narrow-diameter tissue level implants in an edentulous area posterior to the canine. The implant stability was measured by means of resonance frequency analysis after 3 days, 7 days, 4 weeks, and 3 months postplacement. Statistical analysis of intergroup differences and correlation to HbA1c values and treated jaw was performed in PRISM 8. RESULTS: The means for implant stability quotients showed a significant increase between Day 3 and 3-month assessment in both groups. No significant differences between study groups and no correlation of implant stability to HbA1c were found. CONCLUSION: The present study shows encouraging clinical outcomes for narrow-diameter implants inserted in the posterior zone in patients with uncontrolled T2DM. CI - (c) 2022 The Authors.
