ObjectiveThe present split-mouth prospective study involves an immunohistochemical evaluation of peri-implant soft tissue healing after the osseointegration period, comparing submerged and transmucosal approaches using two-piece implant systems. The null hypothesis was that both surgical procedures elicit a similar immune response of the peri-implant soft tissues.DesignThirty-one healthy patients were included in this study, in which two implants were placed in the right and left maxillary pre-molar regions. A total of 62 dental implants were analyzed, establishing a control side with 31 submerged implants, and a study side with 31 exposed implants bearing healing abutments. After a three-month healing period, a soft tissue biopsy was collected and prepared for immunohistochemical analysis of the proportions of different lymphocyte subpopulations.ResultsThe comparative analysis between the submerged and transmucosal approaches failed to identify statistically significant differences in CD19+ B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, CD25+ T cells or γd T cells. However, significant differences in NK lymphocytes (p = 0.012) were recorded with the submerged surgical procedure.ConclusionsPeri-implant soft tissue immune response with submerged or transmucosal healing protocols demonstrated comparable outcomes after the osseointegration period. There is sufficient evidence that the null hypothesis of no difference cannot be rejected. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of its kind. Further research is therefore needed to further clarify the role of these lymphocyte subpopulations in peri-implant soft tissues.
