Traditionally, patients with diabetes or smoking habits were not considered eligible for dental implantation. It was because of the weak outcomes related with delayed loading protocols and outdated two-piece implant system. But, with the innovations in dentistry, immediate functional loading implants like CorticoBasal® Implants, all these limitations have ceased to exist, resulting in everyone being eligible for modern dental implants.
Why Diabetes and Smoking Were Considered Risk Factors
Diabetes and smoking always increased the risks with conventional implants. The reason is their negative effect on wound healing, inflammation, and the metabolism of the bone. With traditional implants that were dependent on bone grafting and sinus lifts, the implants always failed for diabetic patients.

The study addresses the noticeable gap in the implantation process. Unlike prior research centred on two-piece implants, this study focused on outcomes following treatment with Corticobasal® Implants, particularly under immediate functional loading conditions.
Key Clinical Findings from the Study
The post-treatment analysis of 227 patients revealed consistent oral health–related quality of life outcomes across all examined subgroups, including those with controlled diabetes, regular smoking habits, and advanced periodontitis.
Key observations included:
- No statistically significant confounding effect between diabetes, smoking, and periodontitis
- Comparable post-treatment oral comfort and functional outcomes across all risk categories
- Stable results observed over a mean follow-up period of approximately one year
- Absence of compounded risk when multiple systemic or behavioural factors coexisted
Why CorticoBasal® Implantology Changes Eligibility Criteria
With immediate loading protocols, the implant stabilization in the cortical bone changes the biological dependency, which was prevalent in traditional implants. CorticoBasal® implants anchor in highly mineralized bone, thereby reducing the susceptibility to the limitation of conventional healing. Hence, newer implant treatment becomes less focused on ailments like diabetes and smoking, and more on surgical precision.
