Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus affects many organ systems, including bone tissue.In diabetic patients, the activity of osteoblasts is suppressed and the activity of osteoclasts in the bone matrix increases, bone formation decreases, which can disrupt the process of osseointegration and ultimately lead to disintegration and failed implants. Based on the foregoing, with diabetes, it is very important to study bone metabolism to predict and dynamically control dental implants.

Objectives: To assess the indicators of bone metabolism markers Osteocalcin and β-Cross-Laps in blood serum in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with intraosseous dental implants.

Methods: The study included 86 patients, diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus in period 2018 - 2023 with partially or complete edentulous. Implant surgery was performed after periodontal therapy using 367 UV functionalized dental implants in patients 1 group. Patients 2 group was performed implant surgery using 54 dental implants that were not UV functionalization. Final dental prosthetics was performed 4-5 months. UV functionalization of the implant surface was carried out using a UV Activator YWJ-QSY001 (Foshan, Wenjian Medikal Enstriman) for 20 s. The content biochemical markers of bone Osteocalcin and β-Cross-Laps serum was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ELISA (ELISA, IFA Roche Diagnostics, Basel, Switzerland) before and after dental implantation according to the manufacturers' protocols. Outcomes assessed included; implant survival, men MBL, PPD, BOP, RFA, prosthetic success.

Results: There were no clinical examinations of serious biological or prosthetic complications. There is a correlation between different concentrations of Osteocalcin or β-Cross- Laps and the success rate of implants. Implants were shown to be unsuccessful low concentrations of Osteocalcin and high concentrations β-Cross- Laps in serum compared with average mean biochemical markers of bone in 2 group patients. In patients of the 2nd group, the indicators of biochemical bone markers were within the normal range; no correlation was found between osseointegration failers and the complication of peri-implatitis. Short implants success rate was 96,7 %, standart implants success rate was after 97,5 after 5 years.

Conclusion: Implant therapy can be successfully used in diabetic patients with UV photofunctionalized implants, blood glucose levels should be constantly maintained at a normal level. Monitoring of bone metabolism markers in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus may have prognostic value for implants and will encourage the practitioner to apply corrective drug therapy in case of violation of markers.
