Guimarães RP, de Oliveira PAD, Oliveira AMSD. Effects of induced diabetes and the administration of aminoguanidine in the biomechanical retention of implants: a study in rats. J Periodont Res 2011; 46: 691–696. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S Background and Objective: The present study aimed to assess the effects of induced diabetes and the administration of aminoguanidine in the biomechanical retention of implants in rats. Material and Methods: Thirty‐six rats were randomly divided into six groups: group 1, healthy rats (no aminoguanidine); group 2 and group 3, healthy rats receiving 10 and 20 mg/kg of aminoguanidine daily, respectively; group 4, diabetic rats (no aminoguanidine); and group 5 and group 6, diabetic rats receiving 10 and 20 mg/kg of aminoguanidine daily, respectively. In each rat an implant was inserted in the femur. After 28 d of healing, the rats were killed. The implants were removed by applying a counter‐torque, and the maximum force required for the rupture of the bone–implant interface was recorded using an analog torque meter. The data were evaluated using analysis of variance and the Student’s t ‐test. Results: In the healthy groups, no statistically significant difference could be observed in the average counter‐torque values for implant removal, whereas in the diabetic groups, a daily dose of 20 mg/kg of aminoguanidine raised the counter‐torque values to the values found in healthy rats. Conclusion: The administration of 20 mg/kg of aminoguanidine daily in diabetic rats raised the biomechanical retention of the implants to the level observed in the healthy rat group.
