Avaliação da adaptação entre implantes e pilar protético do tipo hexágono externo considerando a rugosidade superficial

Abstract

In Brazil the number of oral deficient patients is still increasing, edentulismo is characterized as an avoidable condition in which a human being has complete loss of teeth, which, according to the world health organization, arises in the consequence of a poor health system Which affects the general health of the population, as well as their quality of life. In order to treat this deficiency, dental implants arise, one of the most practiced modalities in the medical sciences today, with a 95% long-term survival rate in published studies. The objective of this work was to evaluate the external bonding surfaces of the external Hexagon implants and its universal prosthetic pillar of four brands sold in the Brazilian market through its 3D optical interferometry, as well as its smoothness parameters (mean roughness) and to measure the adaptation level Between the prosthetic abutment and implants using scanning electron microscopy. Four brands of external hexagon type implants and four universal type prosthetic abutments were selected for cemented prostheses from four different manufacturers available in the Brazilian market. For each implant sample or prosthetic abutment, measurements were made to establish a roughness mean of the surfaces under Roughness parameters Sa, Ssk and Sku, in the sequence joined and performed 06 MEV measurements to evaluate the quality of the gap. After the evaluation, the data were submitted to ANOVA, t test (0.05) and linear regression of the data. Where the hypothesis equality between the brands with 95% confidence for the Sa and Gap parameters is discarded, but the "t" test two factors reveals equality between the 01 and 02 marks for the value of Sa and Gap in the implants and equality between Marks 01 and 03 of the values Sa of the prosthetic abutments.
