Ten patients, seven females, and three males, aged 42.4 ± 11.99 years (range, 28 to 64 years), with either a first mandibular or second mandibular molar edentulous area, who required a single nonsubmerged implant participated in this study, as shown in Table 2.

That study showed that PICF volume decreased significantly from week 1 to week 3. Alteration of the gingival fluid volume and contents occur according to the condition of the tissues surrounding the teeth. The presence of inflammation increases the gingival fluid volume. Also, changes in peri-implant crevicular fluid contents and volume result from the condition of the peri-implant tissue.

The main sources of ALP in GCF are neutrophils, bacteria within dental plaque, fibroblasts, and osteoblasts. Plagnat et al. suggested that longitudinal monitoring of ALP in PICF might confirm its possible use as a marker of implant failure. Considering the change in the median values of the ALP level over time, in the test group, the ALP level decreased at 1–4 weeks and then increased at 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks. These results are similar to those of a previously reported animal study of gene expression of ALP during the osseointegration period. However, no significant differences in the ALP level were noted over time. This may be due to the variation of ALP sources in PICF and/or the small sample size at each measurement in this study.

Osteocalcin or bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein is a noncollagenous protein in the bone matrix. It is a small (6000 Da) polypeptide. Monjo et al. studied 372 implants in 93 rabbits, and suggested that osteocalcin is the best biological marker for implant osseointegration after 4-week healing periods. In our study, there were statistically significant increases in the OC level at 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks when compared with 1 week. These results are similar to those of previous clinical studies. Slotte et al. studied gene expression of bone healing in PICF using a quantitative real-time PCR technique. Their pilot study demonstrated that gene expression for OC was high 7 weeks after implant placement. Prati et al. studied the release of bone markers during the osseointegration period using the Luminex assay. They revealed that OC level was high 8 weeks after implant placement in their nonloaded group.
