Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the expression of host-derived markers in peri-implant/gingival crevicular fluid (PCF/GCF) and clinical conditions at ceramic implants and contralateral natural teeth. As a secondary objective, we compared zirconia implants with titanium implants.
One zirconia implant (ZERAMEX® Implant System) and one contralateral natural tooth were examined in 36 systemically healthy subjects (21 males, 15 females, mean age 58). The levels of Il-1β, Il-1RA, Il-6, Il-8, Il-17, b-FGF, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IFNɣ, MIP-1β, TNF-α, and VEGF were assessed in PCF/GCF using the Bio-Plex 200 Suspension Array System. The plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD), and bleeding on probing (BOP) were assessed at six sites around each implant or tooth. Titanium implants were also assessed when present (
The zirconia implants were examined after a loading period of at least 1.2 years (average 2.2 years). The mean PI was significantly lower at zirconia implants compared to teeth (
The correlation in the expression of five biomarkers at zirconia implants and teeth, and of four biomarkers at zirconia and titanium implants, is compatible with the existence of a patient-specific inflammatory response pattern. Higher mean GI, PD, and BOP around implants suggests that the peri-implant mucosa may be mechanically more fragile than the gingiva.
Similar expression of selected biomarkers at zirconia implants and teeth and at zirconia and titanium implants reflects existence of patient-specific inflammatory response patterns.

Some authors have suggested adverse immune reactions to titanium oxide as a possible contributing factor to biological complications [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>]. To what extent peri-implant infections could be lowered by choosing another implant material is unknown. Zirconia ceramics have been proposed as an alternative. Favorable physical and chemical properties [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>], color adaptability, claims of high biocompatibility [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>], and low affinity to plaque [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>] have made zirconium dioxide (ZrO<sub>2</sub>) a material of particular interest. So far, the available evidence for specific benefits of dental zirconia implants is however incomplete. The number of clinical studies is limited and their results are rather inhomogeneous [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>].</p><p>Analysis of gingival crevice fluid (GCF) has been suggested as a way of evaluating host response in the periodontal tissues [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>]. It offers a simple, non-invasive way of studying cellular and metabolic events taking place in the periodontal environment [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>]. In analogy, analysis of peri-implant crevice fluid (PCF) was proposed [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>]. Among mediators identified in the GCF and PCF, cytokines have attracted particular interest. Secreted by a broad range of cells, these soluble proteins have a crucial role in innate and adaptive immunity and are thus important factors in the host response to infection (for review, see 12). Using the experimental gingivitis model, GCF levels of the cytokine IL-1 were demonstrated to increase rapidly with plaque accumulation and in advance of the subsequent gingival inflammation, indicating that some cytokines may be early markers of gingival inflammatory changes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. Recent studies suggest that elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in PCF may be markers for early peri-implant infections at titanium implants and may have value in indicating patients at risk for such pathology [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>]. Pro-inflammatory cytokines have been assessed at titanium implants with zirconia or titanium abutments [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>] but thus far have not been studied in PCF at zirconia implants.</p><p>Since November 2009, we have treated a series of partially edentulous patients with a total of 76 two-piece zirconia implants supporting all-ceramic crowns. Treatment outcomes including 2-year cumulative survival rates were presented recently [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>]. In a limited number of these patients, titanium implants were also present. This gave us the opportunity to assess the clinical and biological conditions at zirconia implants and teeth and, in a subset of participants, to compare them with titanium implants.

We found significant differences of several clinical parameters and two biomarkers, and we noted significant correlations between two clinical and five biological parameters. PI scores at zirconia implants were generally low and correlated to those at contralateral teeth, indicating that the participants had a good overall level of oral hygiene. Nevertheless, PI scores at zirconia implant-supported crowns were significantly lower than at natural teeth and titanium implants, corroborating reports of low affinity of zirconia to plaque [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>]. Perhaps surprisingly, mPD, mBOP, and mGI all were, however, significantly higher at zirconia implants than at teeth. It has previously been indicated that the vertical position of the implant affects the dimensions of the peri-implant tissues and that the distance from the implant shoulder to the mucosal margin may be up to 5 mm in the anterior maxilla after the insertion of an implant crown [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>]. In another study, titanium implants showed a lower mean plaque score and a higher median pocket depth than teeth [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>]. BOP at implants in the order of 80 % has been noticed in numerous studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>]. This higher rate than around healthy teeth suggests that the peri-implant mucosa may be mechanically more fragile than gingiva. It is however unknown whether bleeding upon peri-implant probing indicates an increased risk for peri-implantitis. The disproportion between the high frequency of BOP and clinically manifest peri-implantitis indicates that there may be a high false-positive rate (for review, see 1). The higher mGI values around implants can be explained by the same phenomenon—a GI score of 2 is given if bleeding occurs after running a blunt instrument along the soft tissue wall of the entrance of the gingival crevice [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>]. The GI was originally defined to assess natural teeth, not implants; hence, the modified sulcus bleeding index [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>] would have been more suitable for assessing implants. However, since implants were compared to natural teeth in this study, utilization of GI for implants was considered more appropriate.</p><p>The study’s split-mouth design permitted an intra-individual comparison of cytokine levels in GCF and PCF around the teeth and implants, respectively. The correlation in the expression of five biomarkers at zirconia implants and teeth, and of four biomarkers at zirconia and titanium implants, is compatible with the existence of a patient-specific inflammatory response pattern. The levels of two biomarkers (IL-1β and TNF-α) were significantly higher at zirconia implants than at teeth. Our results agree with findings of a recent study comparing levels of biomarkers in PCF at titanium implants and GCF, showing higher levels of TNF-α at implants and significant positive correlations between levels in PCF and GCF of several cytokines [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>]. An overall higher concentration of cytokines was found around titanium implants than at natural teeth in a second study [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>]. A third study [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>], assessing host-derived biomarkers in PCF at titanium implants and GCF at adjacent teeth, showed no differences but indicated that PCF and GCF levels of most analytes were correlated. In the review process of this paper, a subgroup analysis with regards to implant type was recommended. This analysis suggested ZERAMEX 1st generation implants had higher levels of three cytokines than ZERAMEX T implants. These results could be better explained by the difference in the prosthetic design rather than the difference in surface treatment between implants. However, findings of such secondary subgroup analyses need to be interpreted with caution [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>]. A specifically designed study with larger size would be required to determine to what extent differences in implant design and surface treatment or implant dimensions and implant position influence the expression of inflammatory markers at zirconia implants.</p><p>In the present study, except for PI, no significant differences in clinical or biological parameters at titanium or zirconium implants were found. Inflammatory profiles have been evaluated at peri-implant soft tissues adjacent to either titanium or zirconia healing abutments after 6 months of healing [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>]. These authors noted a significant increase in pro-inflammatory infiltrates and higher expressions of VEGF and nitric oxide synthase isoforms 1 and 3 at titanium abutments. In another experiment [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>], pro-inflammatory cytokine and bone metabolism mediator expression were not different around titanium and zirconia implant abutments, with one exception (leptin).</p><p>The biomarker levels obtained in this study were a result of a pooled 1-minute sample from the vestibular and lingual/palatal aspects of each tooth or implant. Differences in sampling protocols hinder direct comparisons of average values among studies. In addition, the cytokine threshold levels in healthy conditions are not defined. However, MMP-8 and IL-1beta levels were analyzed around teeth and implants during the course of experimental peri-implant mucositis and gingivitis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>]. Nonetheless, it has been acknowledged that an increase in cytokine concentration is correlated with clinical signs of peri-implantitis and periodontitis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>]. The outcome of therapy with titanium implants was retrospectively associated to results of assessments of several genetic and immunological markers in 109 subjects [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>]. Increasing numbers of risk genotypes of the studied polymorphisms were associated with an increasing risk of implant loss, suggesting an additive effect. IL-1 and TNF-α genotyping and cytokine release assay scores represented risk factors for implant loss.</p></sec><sec id="Sec12" sec-type="conclusion"><title>Conclusions</title><p>Although clinical parameters assessed at peri-implant tissues of zirconia implants and periodontal tissues of contralateral natural teeth showed significant differences, by and large, a similar expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines was observed. Correlations in the expression of several biomarkers at zirconia implants and teeth, and at zirconia and titanium implants, may reflect patient-specific inflammatory response patterns that are not modified locally by the implant material. The diagnostic value of such markers to determine differential benefits of zirconia or titanium implants remains to be determined in longitudinal studies.</p></sec></body><back><ack><p>The patients investigated here took part in a longitudinal study supported by a grant from Dentalpoint AG, Zürich, Switzerland.
