Role of proinflammatory mutations in peri-implantitis: systematic review and meta-analysis
Abstract
Abstract Purpose To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis on the presence of inflammatory polymorphisms in patients with peri-implantitis (PI). PI is the main complication associated to dental implant therapy. Although its main risk factors are history of periodontitis, poor plaque control and lack of regular maintenance, genetic susceptibility could also be a determinant factor for its appearance. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) are small mutations of the DNA that alter the osseointegration of implants. Inflammatory proteins participate in both destruction of the extracellular matrix and reabsorption of the alveolar bone. Methods A bibliographical research was made in PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science (keywords: “single nucleotide polymorphism”, “polymorphism”, “periimplantitis”, “SNP” and “implant failure”). Results There is a statistically significant association of peri-implant bone loss with the homozygotic model of IL-1β (− 511) (OR: 2.255; IC: 1.040–4.889). Conclusions Associations between inflammatory polymorphisms and PI must be taken with caution due to the heterogeneous methodological design, sample size and diagnostic criteria of the studies. Thus, more well-designed studies are needed that analyze the relationship between these and more SNP and PI.
