Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of removal torque (reverse torque) of titanium implants in peri-implant bone.
The P1-M1 teeth were extracted bilaterally of 6 mini pigs (BR-1). Each animal received 6 titanium implants, three for each side of mandible. On the right side of mandible, 3 implants reminded 9 months (9M) under masticatory activity and on the left side, other 3 implants were placed and immediately removed (IR). All 36 implants were removed by removal torque, and the recorded values were statistically analyzed. Animals were euthanized right after the removal torque and recording. Each third (cervical, medium, and apical) of peri-implant bone was extracted and analyzed histological and immunohistochemically. Student’s
Removal torque was higher in 9M experimental situation than in IR. Histological characteristics of mature bone were presented in the 9M experimental condition, and immature bone characteristics were presented in the IR experimental condition. Removal torque caused small fractures and rounding in the bone grooving. Immunohistochemical analysis reinforced the histological results; Student’s
Removal torque caused microscopical fractures and smoothing in the peri-implant bone grooves, but it does not compromise the bone healing.

This discovery was successfully applied in dental and craniofacial reconstructive surgery in 1965 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>]. Dental implants became a common procedure in the modern dental treatment with long-term success rates exceeding 90% reaching up to 100% [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>] due to the development of some implant systems [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>]. However, the increased use of dental implants also improved the fails. The main causes of failure are incorrect position, fracture, peri-implantitis, chronic diseases, and smoking [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>].</p><p>Several studies indicated that screw loosening appeared to be one of the most common complications in dental implants once osseointegration has occurred, especially in single-tooth implant restorations [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>]. The incorrect position of implants can cause maxillary sinus membrane damage, pressure on the dental nerves, or difficulties in prosthetic procedure as well as inconvenient esthetical problems. Esthetical requirements of patients have increased, especially for anterior teeth [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>]. Even after successful osseointegration, the implant remotion may be necessary [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>].</p><p>To correct the wrong position or fractured implant is necessary to remove it. For this purpose, it may be used various surgical techniques such as the use of trephine, implant drills, ultrasound, and others. But the use of these techniques cause great loss of peri-implant bone, what limits or prevents a new immediate rehabilitation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>]. Alternatives to removal implants without losing or expanding alveolar bone led Anitua and Orive [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>] to use the counter torque. Studies comparing counter torque with trephine drills to remove implants indicated better performance for the first [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>].</p><p>The causes of implant failure are well known and described; however, what happened with the peri-implant bone that can influence on the success of a reimplantation needs to be better described, with the increase of implant removals to replacement for functional or aesthetic corrections and the need to reduce alveolar bone loss [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>].</p><p>Many authors investigated bone reactions around dental implants [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>]. What happens in the peri-implant bone implants removed is not reported in scientific articles. This study evaluated the peri-implant bone after his immediate removal and after 9 months of osseointegration. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the peri-implant bone after dental implant removal.</p></sec><sec id="Sec2" sec-type="materials|methods"><title>Materials and methods</title><sec id="Sec3"><title>Animals and preparation</title><p>This study was approved by the University Animal Ethics Committee-CEUA/UNICAMP-(Campinas, SP) (no.2730-1/12). Six adult male mini pigs (BR-1 mini pigs, São Paulo, Brazil) with ~36 months old and weighed ~55 kg were used in the experiment. The mini pigs were kept in the Experimental Center of the Veterinary Faculty (FESB-Bragança Paulista, SP) and were allowed to adapt to the environment 1 week prior to surgeries. At the beginning of the study, all animals underwent a physical examination by a veterinarian and were found to be healthy. During the study period, the mini pigs were weighed if abnormalities in food intake were observed [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>]. The identification of the animals was enabled by marking earrings numbered. The mini pigs were kept separately in cemented stalls. Fresh water was available ad libitum. For 12 h, before surgery, the animals were fasting with water ad libitum. The animals were inspected after the first few postoperative days for signs of wound dehiscence or infection and weekly thereafter to assess general health.</p><p>The removal torque and the histological and immunohistochemical analysis of peri-implant bone were conducted in the mandible of the mini pigs.</p><p>The animals were premedicated to induce anesthesia with midazolam (0.2 mg/kg) (Medley, Sumaré, SP, Brasil) and chlorpromazina IM (0.1 mg/kg) (Cristália, Itapira, SP, Brasil). An endotracheal tube was used for intubation, and a mixture of isofluran (Baxter Healthcare Corporation, IL, USA) with oxygen in a ratio 1:1 (5–10 mL/kg/min) was used to maintain anesthesia during the experiment. Local anesthesia was performed with lidocaine 2% with epinephrine 12.5 μg/mL (Xylocain/Adrenalin®, Astra, Wedel, Germany). After surgery, veterinarian Pentabiotic Reinforced antibiotic 40.000 UI/kg (Eurofarma, Itapevi, SP) and anti-inflammatory dexamethasone 3 mg/pig (MSD, São Paulo, SP, Brasil) were administered IM application .</p></sec><sec id="Sec4"><title>Surgical procedures and implant removal</title><p>The same operator performed all the surgeries and radiographic. The P1, P2, P3, and M1 teeth were extracted bilaterally of each animal. The tooth extractions were difficult in every case because the roots were divergent and usually curved distally. It was necessary to odontosection before extracting them [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>]. After 4 months of healing, three external hexagon implants (EH) (Dentifix. Santa Rita do Passa Quatro, SP, Brasil) with the same diameter and length (ø4.1 × 10 mm) were placed with the STA surface on one side of the mandible (Figs. <xref rid="Fig1" ref-type="fig">1</xref> and <xref rid="Fig2" ref-type="fig">2</xref>). The side was chosen by lot. Six months later, this implant group received a prosthetic (Fig. <xref rid="Fig3" ref-type="fig">3</xref>) to improve the bone tension [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>]. Three months later, the 3 implants with prosthetic were removed, totalizing 9 months (9M) and opposite side of the mandible three new implants were placed and immediately removed (IR). Each miniature pig received 6 implants, 3 on each side of the mandible. Thus, a total number of 36 implants were placed. Pigs were anesthetized as described above; all dental implants were carefully removed by a counterclockwise force (removal torque) with a torque driver (Retriever Maximus - Belo Horizonte, MG, Brasil); and the level of torque required to remove the implant from the bone was recorded by mark-10 universal torque series sensor STW, and removal torque were read by a force/torque indicator model BGI (JLW Instruments, Chicago, IL, USA). Afterwards, anesthetized pigs were euthanized with pentobarbital; their mandibles were cut and the respective peri-implant bone was removed in small blocks (10×10×6 mm).<fig id="Fig1"><label>Fig. 1</label><caption><p>Type of implant and clinical picture of implants position in the mandible of mini pigs</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="40729_2016_59_Fig1_HTML" id="MO1"></graphic></fig><fig id="Fig2"><label>Fig. 2</label><caption><p>Radiographs illustrating implants in the mandible of mini pigs. <bold>a</bold> Radiography of the mini pigs head with implants in both mandible sides. <bold>b</bold> Periapical radiograph of implants position</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="40729_2016_59_Fig2_HTML" id="MO2"></graphic></fig><fig id="Fig3"><label>Fig. 3</label><caption><p>Prothesis fixed installed on the three implants</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="40729_2016_59_Fig3_HTML" id="MO3"></graphic></fig></p></sec><sec id="Sec5"><title>Histology and immunohistochemical analysis</title><p>The mandibles were sectioned into left and right segments, and each peri-implant bone was sectioned again to individualize them.

Removal torque caused little fracture and smooth on the peri-implant bone grooves just after the installation procedure (IR); however, none considerable damage or alteration compromised the bone healing. As at 9M specimens, the bone grooving presented clear contours, without rounding or fractures, demonstrating that removal torque is not a factor of dental implant failure. Even though some bone fragments were presented in the last third (apical) just in the IR procedure, it also did not compromise the bone healing.</p><p>According to Christenson R.H. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>], the bone structure, metabolism, and regulation are reflected by markers of resorption, formation, and/or turnover. Among the markers of bone resorption is the type 1 collagen degradation and maker of bone formation: Osteocalcin. Bone formation markers derive from the osteoblastic activity, formed during the different stages of osteoblasts proliferation, differentiation, and osteoid synthesis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">51</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR53">53</xref>], namely the bone osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase, and other makers. Osteocalcin is expressed during mineralization by osteoblastic cells. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR54">54</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR56">56</xref>]. Those evidences supported us to analyze the expression of bone extreme activities: resorption (collagen I) and formation (osteocalcin). Our immunohistochemistry results expressed the bone repair because it showed higher expression of osteocalcin at the 9M specimens. Since the titanium implants were fixed for 9 months, peri-implant bone was submitted to masticatory tension [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>] and that causes bone activity, stimulating osteocalcin expression, because it occurs during mineralization. Notwithstanding, collagen I expression did not show statistical difference between both experimental conditions, in spite of all numerical values were higher to IR experiment. It can also be explained by the healing time evaluated. Immediate implant removal caused histological evidence but has no time enough to express changes in the expression of collagen type I. The healing time was not extended because immediate removal represents a clinical situation in titanium implant procedures, when failure is detected just after its installation. The higher numerical values of collagen I expression to IR experiment condition indicate more protein activity than 9M. It also represents no removal torque influence in the healing process leading to the understanding that this does not hinder the immediate installation of a new implant in the same socket.</p></sec><sec id="Sec13" sec-type="conclusion"><title>Conclusion</title><p>Implant removal torque should be higher to remove implants with long-time installation than implants removed immediately after installation.
