文摘目的:对下颌第一磨牙拔除后行种植修复的病例进行回顾性研究,探索重度牙周破坏(advanced periodontal defect,APD)对拔牙后种植手术方式的影响。方法:纳入下颌第一磨牙拔除后自然愈合3~12个月行种植手术的患者176例,共179个种植位点,进行回顾性分析,记录患者年龄、性别、缺牙时间以及拔牙时是否有APD。采用多因素Logistic回归,分析拔牙前APD是否是种植时行引导性骨再生(guided bone regeneration,GBR)的风险因素。结果:对年龄、性别、缺牙时间等因素校正后,结果显示,有APD的下颌第一磨牙,种植时行GBR的风险是无APD位点的4.738倍(95%可信区间:1.650~13.609,P<0.05)。结论:APD的下颌第一磨牙拔除后,种植手术时行GBR的可能性更大。
