Effect of Implants on the Periapical Health of Natural Adjacent Teeth: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
CE Hours: 1.0
Description: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the pooled estimate and relative risk of periapical lesions in natural teeth adjacent to implants.
At the conclusion of this article, the reader will be able to:
- Evaluate the impact of dental implants on the periapical health of adjacent natural teeth.
- Describe the relative risk of developing periapical radiolucent lesions (PARLs) in natural teeth adjacent to implants compared to those adjacent to non-implants.
- Discuss potential mechanisms that may contribute to the development of PARLs in adjacent natural teeth.
