Abstract

Several studies have shown that some commonly prescribed drugs, including bisphosphonates (BP), proton pump inhibitors (PPI), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), can affect peri-implant bone healing, remodeling, and osseointegration. In order to ensure successful osseointegration of dental implants, it is important to investigate the effects of systemic diseases and regularly used medications on osseointegration. Therefore, the aim of this review is to investigate the association between the intake of medications that may affect bone metabolism and implant outcomes.
