Abstract
Implant-retained prostheses have been considered as a common treatment modality associated with high success and survival rates, in addition to increased patient satisfaction. Smoking is one of the major patient-related factors and therefore, needs a considerable attention. Previous systematic reviews did not resolve this debate, or even reach a consensus to decide for placing dental implants in smokers. However, due to their inherent limitations of the previous systematic reviews and availability of new studies, conducting the current systematic review was mandatory 2.2 Objectives The objective of this systematic review is to determine the prognosis of implant treatment in smokers if compared to non-smokers. PECOTS {uF0B7} P (population/participants): Patients requiring dental implants. {uF0B7} E (exposure) : Smoking patients {uF0B7} C (comparator): Non-smoking patients {uF0B7} O (outcomes) : Implant failure {uF0B7} T (time) : At least one year {uF0B7} S (study design): Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis 2.3 Data Sources Review authors searched 3 electronic databases; Pubmed, Cochrane and Lilacs: 17/11/2018, hand searched 8 journals till December 2018, Grey Literature: 12/11/2018 and snowballing: 12/12/2018. Hand searching was done for International Journal of Prosthodontics, Journal of Clinical Oral Implant Research, Journal of Implant Dentistry, International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial implants, Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, European Journal of Oral Implantology, Journal of dental research, Journal of Quintessence international
