Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Periimplantar bleeding evaluated through manual periodontal probing around the dental implants, being recorded in a dichotomous manner (presence / abscense) at 4 sites per implant (buccal, lingual, mesial, distal). Data will be evaluated in relation to the number / precent of affected sites and implants (level 1) aggregated within individuals (level 2) through hierarchical analysis.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Plaque index evaluated with disclosing agents, being recorded in a dichotomous manner (presence / abscense) at 4 sites per implant (buccal, lingual, mesial, distal). Data will be evaluated in relation to the number / precent of affected sites and implants (level 1) aggregated within individuals (level 2) through hierarchical analysis.;Bacterial count evaluated through real time PCR (q-PCR) for the total bacterial load and specific counts of C. rectus, P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, P.intermedia, T. denticola, A. actinomycetemcomitans e A. naeslundi.
