A mean gap of less than 4 microm following laboratory procedures and continuous loading was demonstrated in prefabricated crowns of the Ha-Ti implant system in earlier studies. The clinical relevance of such high precision in maintaining inflammation free marginal mucosa is yet to be determined. In this present investigation, the complete assembly of Ha-Ti implants including prefabricated screw-retained crowns was tested for bacterial leakage under controlled conditions in vitro. The gaps were shown not to be a barrier for Staphylococcus aureus which were used as test bacteria. Bacterial leakage through these gaps from the environment to the interior of the assembly and vice versa was observed within 24-120 h. The main path of bacterial penetration was possibly found to be through the transversal screw hole and not through the marginal gap of the prefabricated crowns. |
