PURPOSE: To determine the prevalence and describe the clinical features and treatment of @entity1 with @entity281 after implant placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed. @entity86 were defined as the presence of purulent drainage and/or increasing @entity158 and swelling in the operated area before prosthetic loading. @entity1 -based infection prevalences and 95% confidence intervals for implant were determined. @entity1 who healed, were followed up to determine implant survival and success rates. RESULTS: Three hundred thirty-seven @entity1 (1273 implants) were included. Twenty-two @entity86 were recorded (6.5% of the @entity1 and 1.7% of the implants). These complications were usually diagnosed within the first month, and in 17 cases (77.3%) surgical treatment was performed because of antibiotic therapy failure. Twelve implants (54.6%) in 12 @entity1 (54.6%) failed before prosthetic loading. The survival and success rates of the infected loaded implants were 80% and 50%, respectively, with a mean follow-up of 42.9 months (SD of 10.2 months). CONCLUSION: Four to 10% of @entity1 receiving dental implants develop @entity86 . This complication is important because applied treatments are usually ineffective and two-thirds of the infected implants fail, most before prosthetic loading.
