Effect of hypothyrodism's medication (T4) on implant osstointegration: A case series and literature search.

Introduction: Hypothyroidism reduces the recruitment, maturation, and activity of bone cells, decreasing bone resorption and formation. Several investigations have reported that T4 replacement therapy is associated with a significant decrease in bone mineral density in various skeletal parts, while others have failed to corroborate these results. The present study describes both a literature review and our own experience with dental implants in patients with hypothyroidism undergoing T4 replacement therapy.
