ABSTRACT Purpose The long-term success of an implant depends on the stability of bone support for the implant. Most crestal bone loss occurs in the first year of implant placement. Platform-switching is an approach which can be clinically applied to preserve the crestal bone. The concept of ‘platform switching’ refers to the use of a smaller-diameter abutment on a larger-diameter implant collar. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate crestal bone level around platform-switched implants. Materials and methods Twenty implants with 5 mm diameter were placed in mandibular molar region. All implants had been placed at the crestal level at the time of surgery. Radiographs with grid were obtained 3, 6 and 12 months after loading and were evaluated by screen caliper software measuring the location of the crestal bone level relative to the implant platform. Results The implants showed a mean bone loss of 0.76 ± 0.1265 mm on mesial side and 0.72 ± 0.1481 mm on distal side after 1 year. Conclusion The findings of the current trial indicated that the use platform-switched implants lead to better preservation of crestal bone.

Platform switching implies to the mismatch in diameter of the abutment and that of the implant collar or in particular, use of the abutments with lesser diameter on a greater diameter implant collar. Platform switching was proposed as a process to improve long-term bone maintenance around implants. The clinical applications of platform switching are multiple, and all indicate better long-term predictability in implant therapy by allowing preservation of the peri-implant hard and soft tissue with time. In this review the influence of platform switching on various other factors affecting crestal bone loss around implants has been discussed.
