Conditions

Peri-implantitis

Keywords

peri-implantitis, dental implants, randomized controlled trial, non-surgical periodontal treatment, will be defined by the presence of alveolar bone loss of at least 3mm, pocket depth of at least 5mm and bleeding on probing.

Brief summary

This study will compare surgical and non surgical treatments of peri-implantitis. Peri-implantitis is an inflammation around dental implants that can lead to the loss of the implant over time if no treatment is established. The signs of peri-implantitis included bleeding of the gingiva, swelling and redness. Most of times there is no pain. Patients presenting with these characteristics will be included at random to one of the treatment groups. Those allocated to the non-surgical group will received implant cleansing after local anesthesia using adequate instruments. In the surgical group, patients will be submitted to a surgical procedure around the implant for visualization and cleansing also after local anesthesia. All patients will be followed over a 12-month period. The hypothesis is that surgical treatment is better than non-surgical treatment regarding clinical, radiographic, microbiological, and immunological.characteristics.
