Materials and methods : Implants (Astra Tech (A), Biomet 3i (B) and Nobel Biocare (C)) were evaluated for leakage (n=8/group). Testing to assess the gas pressure change over time (hPa/min) and infiltrated fluid volume, was performed in a Gas Enhanced Permeation Test (GEPT) to qualify embedding. Implant apexes were then drilled, abutments were mounted and resin build-ups were fabricated. GEPT was reassessed. Samples were afterward mounted in a computer-controlled masticator while tested to bacterial leakage, they were daily observed for turbidity. Samples were then reassessed using GEPT. Dunnett's and Fisher's exact tests were utilized to compare implant and to analyze bacterial leakage. Results : Significant differences in GEPT values were shown after loading (p=0.034). Leakage resistance was best for B when compared to C (p=0.023). Samples with higher GEPT values demonstrated earlier bacterial leakage, occurring after 1 or 2 days (A=4, B=0, C=6) and showing favorability for implant system B (p=0.009). Conclusion : Implants leaking under static conditions had increased potential for bacterial leakage under dynamic conditions. As strongly correlating to sophisticated analytical methods, GEPT is a promising technique for assessing the overall implant system leakage resistance. 3 31 2015 112 119 TODENTJ-9-112 1 10.2174/crossmark_policy opendentistryjournal.com benthamopen.com true Peer Reviewed Single blind Checked with iThenticate 2015-1-15 2015-2-10 2015-2-12 2015-3-31 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 10.2174/1874210601509010112 1553505646 https://opendentistryjournal.com/VOLUME/9/PAGE/112/ https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V9/TODENTJ-9-112/TODENTJ-9-112.xml J Periodontol.
