Study Notes

Complications in Dental Implant Surgery

  • Accidents occur during surgery, while complications appear after surgery and can be classified as early-stage or late-stage complications
  • Early-stage complications occur in the immediate postoperative period, interfering with healing
  • Late-stage complications arise during the process of osseointegration
  • Iatrogenic acts are regarded as accidents, complications or failures caused by a deficient praxis of the professional

Local Complications in Dental Implant Surgery

  • Infection
  • Edema
  • Ecchymoses and hematomas
  • Emphysema
  • Bleeding
  • Flap dehiscence
  • Sensory disorders
  • Perforation of the mucoperiosteum
  • Maxillary sinusitis
  • Mandibular fractures
  • Failed osseointegration
  • Bony defects
  • Periapical implant lesions

Classification of Complications (Carranza)

Surgical Complications

  • Hemorrhage and hematoma
  • Neurosensory disturbances
  • Damage to adjacent teeth

Biologic Complications

  • Inflammation
  • Dehiscence and recession
  • Periimplantitis and bone loss
  • Implant loss or failure
  • Screw loosening and fracture
  • Implant fracture
  • Fracture of restorative

Technical or Mechanical Complications

  • Materials
  • Esthetic complications
  • Phonetic complications

Esthetic and Phonetic Complications

  • Bleeding
  • Phonetic complications

Causes of Bleeding

  • Lesions in sublingual, lingual, perimandibular, or submaxillary artery
  • Surgeries in the lower and anterior area of totally edentulous patients with a deficit in bone quality and quantity
  • Lack of asepsis during sinus augmentation

Management of Bleeding

  • Preoperative evaluation of sinus clearance-related factors
  • Postsurgery: nasal decongestant and topical corticosteroid to prevent ostium obstruction
  • Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis

Failed Osseointegration

  • Defined as a direct structural and functional connection between ordered living bone and the surface of a load-carrying implant
  • Factors affecting osseointegration:
    • Implant failure
    • Surface roughness
    • Surface purity and sterility
    • Fit discrepancies
    • Intra-oral exposure time
    • Mechanical overloading
    • Premature loading
    • Traumatic occlusion due to inadequate restorations
    • Patient local factors (oral hygiene, gingivitis, bone quantity/quality, adjacent infection/inflammation, presence of natural teeth, periodontal status of natural teeth)
    • Patient systemic factors (vascular integrity, smoking, alcoholism, predisposition to infection)

Phonetic Complications

  • Unusual palatal contours (restricted or narrow palatal space)
  • Spaces under and around the superstructure of the implant
  • Management: implant-assisted maxillary overdenture

Maxillary Sinusitis

  • Contamination of the maxillary sinus with oral or nasal pathogens
  • Ostial obstruction caused by postoperative swelling of the maxillary mucosa
  • Non-vital bony fragments floating freely in the maxillary sinus
  • Risk factors: age, obesity, steroid therapy, malnutrition, metabolic disease, chemotherapy/radiotherapy, hypersensitivity to implant components
  • Surgical technique/environment
  • Surgical trauma
  • Overheating (use of handpiece)
  • Perioperative bacterial contamination
