abstract
Article history:
Objectives: The purpose of the present review was to test the null hypothesis of no difference
in the implant failure rates, postoperative infection, and marginal bone loss for patients
being rehabilitated using dental implants with immediate nonfunctional loading (INFL)
19 June 2014
difference.
Methods: An electronic search without time or language restrictions was undertaken in
March 2014. Eligibility criteria included clinical human studies, either randomized or not.
Keywords:
The estimates of relative effect were expressed in risk ratio (RR) and mean difference (MD) in
Dental implants
millimeters.
Immediate loading
Results: 1059 studies were identified and 11 studies were included, of which 7 were of high
Nonfunctional loading
risk of bias, whereas four studies were of low risk of bias. The results showed that the
Functional loading
procedure used (nonfunctional vs. functional) did not significantly affect the implant failure
rates (P = 0.70), with a RR of 0.87 (95% CI 0.441.75). The wide CI demonstrates uncertainty
about the effect size. The analysis of postoperative infection was not possible due to lack of
Meta-analysis
data. No apparent significant effects of non-occlusal loading on the marginal bone loss (MD
0.01 mm, 95% CI -0.040.06; P = 0.74) were observed.
Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that the differences in occlusal loading
between INFL and IFL might not affect the survival of these dental implants and that there
is no apparent significant effect on the marginal bone loss.
Clinical Significance: There has been a controversy concerning whether dental implants
should be subjected to immediate functional or nonfunctional loading. As the philosophies
of treatment may alter over time, a periodic review of the different concepts is necessary to
refine techniques and eliminate unnecessary procedures. This would form a basis for
optimum treatment.

Quality assessment
The quality assessment was performed by using the recommended approach for assessing risk of bias in studies included
in Cochrane reviews.9 The classification of the risk of bias
potential for each study was based on the four following
criteria: sequence generation (random selection in the
population), allocation concealment (steps must be taken to
secure strict implementation of the schedule of random
assignments by preventing foreknowledge of the forthcoming
allocations), incomplete outcome data (clear explanation of
withdrawals and exclusions), and blinding (measures to blind
study participants and personnel from knowledge of which
intervention a participant received). The incomplete outcome
data will also be considered addressed when there are no
withdrawals and/or exclusions. A study that met all the
criteria mentioned above was classified as having a low risk of
bias, whereas a study that did not meet one of these criteria
was classified as having a moderate risk of bias. When two or
more criteria were not met, the study was considered to have a
high risk of bias.

There were 253 patients in the study, however, in 156 patients the implants were inserted using the traditional technique.
There were 155 patients in the study, however, only in 82 of them the implants were inserted in immediate function.
A P value was 0.196 when a comparison of the implant survival rate between the immediately loaded group and delayed loaded group was performed, but not between the INFL and IFL groups.

There were 76 patients in the study, however, only in 45 of them the implants were inserted in immediate function.

were conducted in animals, and 3 articles compared nonocclusal vs. occlusal loading, but only in one group the
loading was immediate. Additional hand-searching of the
reference lists of selected studies yielded 2 additional
papers. Thus, a total of 11 publications were included in
the review.
3.3.
Each trial was assessed for risk of bias, and the scores are
summarized in Table 2. Seven studies4,11,12,1619 were judged to
be at high risk of bias and four studies6,1315 of low risk of bias.

The funnel plot did not show asymmetry when the studies
reporting the outcome implant failure were analyzed (Fig. 4),
indicating absence of publication bias.
