Statement of problemContinuous bone resorption is the primary reason for complete denture relines. Because resorption rates vary, the frequency at which individuals require relines also varies. Currently, there are no predictors to identify individuals at risk of frequent relines or to guide clinicians in decisions related to relines.PurposeThe purpose of this cross-sectional pilot study was to determine the utility of measuring bone metabolic markers (C-terminal telopeptide, osteocalcin, 25-OH hydroxy vitamin D) to predict the frequency of complete denture relines.Material and methodsOne hundred adult participants with complete dentures (either maxillary, mandibular, or both) participated in 1 dental clinic visit involving a dental examination and brief interview to obtain relevant medical and dental history, information on medication/supplement use, and 1 laboratory blood draw for the measurement of bone metabolic markers. Data were analyzed by using the Pearson correlation, independent Student t test, or analysis of variance (α=.05).ResultsSignificant correlations were found between the frequency of relines and C-telopeptide and osteocalcin levels but not with vitamin D or age. No significant associations with reline frequency and other factors (sex, race, presence or absence of diabetes, use of calcium and vitamin D supplements) were observed.ConclusionsElevated levels of bone turnover markers in individuals with edentulism were associated with increased frequency of denture relines.
