This study evaluated 3i dental implants, finding both self-tapping and ICE types demonstrated high survival rates and stable marginal bone levels after three years of prosthetic loading. Dental implant success was confirmed for both implant designs.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Implantology
  • Biomaterials Science
  • Clinical Oral Research

Background:

  • Dental implants are crucial for restoring function and aesthetics in edentulous patients.
  • Assessing the long-term stability and success of different implant designs is essential for clinical practice.
  • Machined-surface commercially pure titanium implants have been widely used in dental restoration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the therapeutic success and marginal bone level stability of 3i's self-tapping and ICE dental implants.
  • To compare the outcomes of self-tapping versus ICE implant designs over a three-year period of prosthetic loading.
  • To analyze implant survival rates and radiographic bone levels at one and three years post-loading.

Main Methods:

  • A multicenter prospective clinical evaluation involving 189 patients with complete or partial edentulism.

  • Placement of 614 machined-surface screw-type commercially pure titanium implants (277 self-tapping, 337 ICE).
  • Radiographic evaluation of marginal bone level at three years; survival rates tracked at one and three years post-loading.

    • Main Results:

    • Overall survival rates were 94.3% at 1 year and 92.9% at 3 years.
    • ICE implants showed slightly higher survival rates (95.4% at 1 year, 93.8% at 3 years) compared to self-tapping implants (92.9% at 1 year, 91.6% at 3 years).
    • Marginal bone level stability was high, with 95.1% of implants showing bone at the first thread and no implant exceeding fourth thread bone loss at 3 years.

    Conclusions:

    • Both 3i self-tapping and ICE dental implants demonstrate favorable therapeutic success and marginal bone level stability after three years of prosthetic loading.
    • The ICE implant design may offer slightly improved survival rates and easier placement in certain bone densities.
    • Long-term clinical data supports the reliability of these commercially pure titanium implants in routine dental practice.
