Peri-implantitis is an infectious disease that resides in the mucosa surrounding dental implants and also affects the supporting bone. Because the number of implants placed in everyday clinical practice is continuously increasing, it is reasonable to anticipate an increasing prevalence of peri-implantitis. However, from the literature there is very little reliable evidence suggesting which could be the most effective interventions for treating peri-implantitis.. The primary objective of this controlled clinical study is to evaluate the microbiological effect of decontamination of the implant surface during the surgical treatment of peri-implantitis using a chlorhexidine or placebo solution. The secondary objectives are to assess both the clinical and the microbiological effectiveness of treatment of peri-implantitis.. It is hypothesized that rinsing of the implant surface using a 0.12% chlorhexidine solution does not lead to better microbiological and clinical results compared to rinsing with a ...

Objectives: To review the literature on how implant surface characteristics influence peri-implant disease. Material and Methods: A search of PubMed and The Cochrane Library of the Cochrane Collaboration (CENTRAL) as well as a hand search of articles were conducted. Publications and articles accepted for publication up to March 2010 were included. Results: Thirteen studies were selected for the review. Human studies: To date, few studies have investigated if such differences occur. Limited data suggest that smooth surfaces may be less affected by peri-implantitis than rough surface implants. Animal studies: In ligature-induced peri-implantitis studies, no difference between surfaces has been reported. In a spontaneous progression model of peri-implantitis, there was a suggestion that the progression was more pronounced at implants with a porous anodized surface. Conclusion: The current review revealed that only a few studies provided data on how implant surfaces influence peri-implant disease. ...

OBJECTIVES The microbial composition of peri-implantitis-associated biofilms may resemble that of periodontitis, with some distinctive differences, as identified by various conventional or molecular detection methods. Yet, the complete microbiome of peri-implantitis awaits further characterization. The present clinical study was undertaken with the aim to investigate the association of Spirochaetes, and the more recently identified phylum Synergistetes, with peri-implantitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Submucosal biofilms were obtained from single sites of patients with peri-implantitis (n = 43) or individuals with peri-implant health (n = 41). The samples were analysed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and epifluorescence microscopy, using 16S rRNA-based oligonucleotide probes for Synergistetes cluster A, subclusters A1 and A2, and Treponema groups I-III and IV. RESULTS Treponema group IV was barely detectable, whereas Treponema groups I-III were detected at low prevalence in health, but ...

This paper presents a case of purulent peri-implantitis at an implant in the maxillary right lateral incisor position. The lesion was unresponsive to close debridement and, thus, open flap surgery was performed. Profound bone loss was evident around the implant and a retained retraction cord at the cervical portion of the implant was observed. Treatment included a sequence of decontamination steps and guided bone regeneration with the aim of eliminating the etiology and enhancing implant survival. In the presented case, it can be speculated that the retraction cord served as a plaque retentive factor which ultimately led to bacterial accumulation and periimplant disease. Thus, it is crucial to ensure that no plaque retentive factors (cement remnants, retraction cord, ill-fitting margins of crowns, etc.) are present when restoring an implant. Plaque retentive factors might result in a destructive effect on the peri-implant tissues and bone. Keywords: bone loss, dental implants, iatrogenic damage, ...

However, about 10% of implants will have peri-implantitis after five to 10 years in 19% of patients, according to another systematic review and meta-analysis (Journal of Periodontology, November 2013, Vol. 84:11, pp. 1586-1598) Dr. Reynolds discussed. Mucositis was found in 31% of implants and 63% of patients. At the same time, another study reported substantially lower numbers.. He also spoke about shifts in the prevalence of health factors that affect peri-implant disease. Demographics are changing and so are risk factors for peri-implantitis and other oral health diseases, Dr. Reynolds noted.. The public is changing, he said. We are taking out teeth in young adults related to substance abuse.. These evolving public health factors include the reduction in cigarette smoking, increase in diabetes, and the epidemic of substance abuse. Other emerging issues, such as increasing depression, stress, and anxiety, also are having an effect, Dr. Reynolds said. However, to understand the true ...

Objective The aim of the present study was to assess interventions and their consequences with regard to further bone loss at sites diagnosed with peri-implantitis. Materials and Methods In 2017, records of 70 patients diagnosed with moderate/severe peri-implantitis at >= 1 implant sites 4 years earlier were obtained. Changes of marginal bone levels during the study period assessed on radiographs and predictors of disease progression were identified by Cox regression and mixed linear modelling. Patient files were analysed for professional interventions related to the treatment of peri-implantitis. Results Mean bone loss (+/- SD) at implants diagnosed with moderate/severe peri-implantitis was 1.1 +/- 2.0 mm over the observation period of 3.3 years. While non-surgical measures including submucosal and/or supra-mucosal cleaning of implants were provided to almost all patients, surgical treatment of peri-implantitis was limited to a subgroup (17 subjects). Surgically treated implant sites ...

Peri-implant diseases may affect both the surrounding hard and soft tissues. Peri-implant mucositis is a bacteria-induced, reversible inflammatory process of the peri-implant soft tissue with reddening, swelling, and bleeding on periodontal probing. Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory process of the peri-implant soft and hard tissues associated with clinically significant progressive crestal bone loss after the adaptive phase following prosthetic loading (Canullo et al. 2015). Peri-implant diseases are typically described as the result of an imbalance between host response and bacterial load, supported by gram-negative anaerobic microflora. Peri-implant mucositis may not result in peri-implantitis; however, apparently, all peri-implantitis cases had pre-existing mucositis (Ericsson et al. 1992; Leonhardt et al. 1993; Lindhe et al. 1992; Pontoriero et al. 1994; Renvert and Quirynen 2015; Salvi et al. 2012).. In recent years, it became apparent that these serious peri-implant biological ...

The prevalence, extent and severity of peri-implant disease as reported by Derks et al. in their first paper was peri-impant mucositis 19-65% (weighted mean 43%) and peri-implantitis 1-47% (weighted mean 22%). This review highlights the limitations of the reported prevalence, extent and severity of peri-implant disease due to the lack of a standard case defi nition of peri-implant disease, the variable follow up time periods and the issues with using convenience samples as opposed to randomly selected samples. The EFP/AAP World Workshop 2017 has addressed these issues as reported in the second paper by Derks et al. where new standardized definititions for peri-implant health and disease have been included and the need for using these highlighted.. Clinical relevance: Increasing reports suggest the rise in the prevalence of peri-implant disease. However, clinicians should consider the limitations of the published evidence and whether the reported data is infl ated. The role of planning and ...

AIM To evaluate the outcomes of conventional periodontal maintenance therapy on patients surgically treated for peri-implantitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS 27 patients with 149 dental implants were monitored during 5 years every 6 months. At each recall visit, the prostheses were removed to have proper access for implant examination and supra- and sub-gingival instrumentation. Sub-gingival instrumentation was performed using an ultrasonic instrument with under 0.12% chlorhexidine irrigation. RESULTS At baseline (6 months following peri-implant surgery), 149 implants (78 not treated and 71 treated) were available for analysis. Of the 71 treated implants, 43 presented healthy peri-implant condition, while 28 had residual peri-implant pockets either of 4-5 mm or ≥ 6 mm associated with bleeding on probing/suppuration. The longitudinal evaluation revealed that the plaque and the bleeding index scores were low during the entire follow-up period, and healthy peri-implant conditions were maintained for ...

An in vitro model for peri-implantitis treatment was used to identify areas that are clinically difficult to clean by analyzing the pattern of residual stain after debridement with commonly employed instruments. Original data from two previous publications, which simulated surgical (SA) and non-surgical (NSA) implant debridement on two different implant systems respectively, were reanalyzed regarding the localization pattern of residual stains after instrumentation. Two blinded examiners evaluated standardized photographs of 360 initially ink-stained dental implants, which were cleaned at variable defect angulations (30, 60, or 90°), using different instrument types (Gracey curette, ultrasonic scaler or air powder abrasive device) and treatment approaches (SA or NSA). Predefined implant surface areas were graded for residual stain using scores ranging from one (stain-covered) to six (clean). Score differences between respective implant areas were tested for significance by pairwise comparisons using

PMID: 10697947 As part of an ongoing prospective study, the treatment of peri-implantitis defects using autogenous bone grafts was evaluated. This present report is based on data from 25 ITI screw implants in 17 patients with progressive peri-implant tissue destruction during the maintenance phase. Treatment of these lesions included raising flaps, removal of the surrounding granulation tissue, and air-polishing of the implant surface. Subsequently, corticocancellous bone grafts or particulate bone were placed into the peri-implant osseous defects, and the flaps were sutured around the cervical segment of the implants, allowing for transmucosal healing. Two of the 25 cases resulted in a negative outcome of the procedure. One of the transplants had to be removed 40 days after augmentation because of flap dehiscence and graft mobility. In another patient, the healing period was uneventful until the re-entry surgery, but when the site was reopened, the total graft volume was resorbed. The primary ...

The formation of deep mucosal pockets with inflammation of the peri-implant mucosa around dental implants is called peri-implantitis. Smokers treated with dental implants have a greater risk of developing peri-implantitis. This condition can lead to increased resorption of peri-implant bone. If left untreated, peri-implantitis can lead to implant failure. In a recent international study, smokers showed a higher score in bleeding index with greater peri-implant pocket depth and radiographically discernible bone resorption around the implant, particularly in the maxilla ...

One of the most important factors for long-term success of dental implants is the maintenance of healthy peri-implant tissues. In todays market, patients are more keen to have implant-borne prostheses than a conventional fixed or removable prosthesis. Therefore it is very important that all underlying dental disease is treated or stabilised before implant therapy can commence. This is of great importance when dealing with patients who are susceptible to periodontal disease - this group of patients has an increased susceptibility to peri-implantitis (1).. Peri-implantitis has been associated with oral pathogens, which are comparable to those associated with periodontal disease (2). Placing dental implants in partially dentate patients leads to the formation of a biofilm which has a different ecology to that of edentulous patients. Placing implants in untreated periodontally susceptible patients has been shown to increase the risk of peri-implantitis, therefore indicating spread of periodontal ...

A male patient, 53 years of age, a nonsmoker, and with no systemic contraindication to oral surgery (American Society of Anesthesiologists [ASA]-1 following the classification of the American Society of Anesthesiologists), indicating neither drug intake nor drug allergies, received 3 single screw-retained metal-ceramic crowns supported by 3e Bicon (501 Arborway, Jamaica Plain, Mass) dental implants in positions 2, 3, and 4 in September 2012. The patient could not be enrolled in a recall maintenance program due to temporary work relocation in another city for 2 years. The subject presented to the authors attention in September 2014, citing bleeding during brushing and flossing associated with sporadic episodes of halitosis in the upper right quadrant. During the first clinical examination, bleeding on probing (BOP) and probing probe depth (PPD) ≥5 mm were registered circumferentially around the implants in positions 2 and 4. Bidimensional radiologic evaluation with a panoramic radiograph ...

Take care if using cemented restorations due to the risk of the extrusion of excess cement into the peri-implant sulcus when seating the restoration. The amount of excess cement is generally greater with deeper the crown margins (Linkevicius 2013). Excess cement may act as a foreign body and provoke an inflammatory response that results in peri-implantitis. Cement remnants may provide a rough surface for microorganisms to colonise leading to peri-implant mucositis and possibly peri-implantitis. Screw retained restorations may be preferable where possible ...

Peri-implantitis is a bacterially induced inflammatory condition that results in resorption of the bone supporting an implant. The methods for treating it are mainly empirical, and none have been shown to be universally successful. The first part of this research aimed to identify and compare the composition of the microbiota around dental implants with and without peri-implantitis. Subgingival plaque samples were collected from twenty-one subjects and samples were cultured using non-selective media and bacterial identification was carried out using 16S rRNA PCR. The second phase of the study investigated surface characteristics of implants that could influence the formation of a biofilm. Using a clinically relevant organism (Streptococcus oralis), an in vitro biofilm was developed and biofilm formation on four titanium implant surfaces exhibiting varying degrees of roughness with and without fluoride ions incorporated was evaluated using confocal laser scanning electron microscopy, bacterial ...

This report investigates the outcome of CLS procedures performed at an urban dental school in a population of individuals with HIV. Specifically, this retrospective clinical analysis evaluates the healing response after crown lengthening surgery (CLS). Of the 21 patients with HIV examined after CLS, none had postoperative complications, such as delayed healing, infection, or prolonged bleeding. Variations in viral load, CD4 cell count, smoking, platelets, and neutrophils did not impact surgical healing. In addition, variations in medication regimens (highly active anti-retroviral therapy; on pro-tease inhibitors; no medications had an impact. The results of this retrospective analysis show the absence of postoperative complications after CLS in this population with HIV. Additional investigation into this area will help health care practitioners increase the range of surgical services provided to this group of patients.. ...

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), developed in France by Choukroun et al (2001), is a second generation platelet concentrate widely used to accelerate soft and hard tissue healing. Its advantages over the better known platelet-rich plasma (PRP) include ease of preparation/application, minimal expense, and lack of biochemical modification (no bovine thrombin or anticoagulant is required). PRF is a strictly autologous fibrin matrix containing a large quantity of platelet and leukocyte cytokines. This article serves as an introduction to the PRF concept and its potential clinical applications.. ...

Proper oral hygiene and preventive measures for disease can be aided by placing implants in an ideal position biologically, along with a favorable superstructure. These combined elements offer the patient and dental office the optimal situation for proper implant maintenance (Fig 1). This is especially important in view of the increasing number of older patients with reduced manual abilities. As there are commonalities in the etiology of peri-implant and periodontal disease1, the formation of a bacterial biofilm must be avoided2,3. When areas around an implant are difficult to clean, the risk of peri-implant disease is increased4. The incorrect position of an implant can lead to overhanging superstructures and should therefore be avoided (Figs 2 and 3). Also, regular probing of peri-implant soft tissues must be possible to diagnose a possible mucositis or peri-implantitis (Fig 4)5. This can be more complicated around malpositioned implants due to massively overcontoured superstructures. When ...

As dental implants become a routine part of dental practice, so too will the prevalence of peri-implant diseases. Inherent to the treatment of peri-implant disease is the removal of microbial biofilms from the implant surface. Currently, there is no standardized protocol for application of any treatment modality directed at implant surface decontamination. In this in vitro study, we report on the effectiveness of a super-pulsed CO2 laser, delivering an average fluence of 6.3 to 113 J/cm2, to remove biofilm from three different types of implant surface topographies. Biofilms ranged in thickness from 5 to 15 μm. An average fluence of 19 J/cm2 was sufficient to achieve 100% ablation of the biofilm on hydrophilic sandblasted and acidetched surface specimens (SA). However, to achieve 100% ablation of biofilm on HA and highly crystalline, phosphate enriched titanium oxide (PTO) surfaced implants required an average fluence of 38 J/cm2.. ...

Objective. To investigate whether cone beam computed tomography filters would improve periimplant dehiscence detection.. Study design. A hundred titanium implants were placed in bovine ribs in which defects simulating periimplant dehiscence had previously been created. After images acquisition, three oral radiologists assessed them with and without the following filters: Angio Sharpen high 5 x 5, Shadow, Sharpen 3 x 3, Sharpen Mild, and Smooth. The McNemar test verified the disagreement between all images versus the reference standard and original images versus images with filters; P , .05 was considered statistically significant.. Results. Dehiscence detection using the original images and the Shadow filter disagreed from the reference standard (P , .05), as well as when using the filters instead of the original images (P , .05).. Conclusion. All the filters tested, with the exception of the Shadow, improved periimplant dehiscence detection. The Sharpen 3 x 3 filter was considered best for this ...

Implant therapy is an excellent solution for replacement of missing teeth. Like any medical procedure, it carries a risk of certain complications - most common are peri-implant infections. Risk factors for these diseases include poor oral hygiene, smoking, diabetes and previous periodontal diseases in the patients anamnesis. Peri-implant mucositis is defined as a reversible inflammatory lesion of the peri-implant mucosa without loss of the supporting bone tissue, while peri-implantitis is manifested as inflammation coupled with bone loss. The goal of the treatment of this disease is to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms which inhabit the implants surface and surrounding tissue causing inflammation. Two main methods of treatment are non-surgical and surgical therapy. The choice of treatment method depends on the level of bone loss around the implant. Mechanical debridement and the use of antiseptics are part of conventional, non-surgical therapy. Adjunctive treatment methods which help in ...

This article presents the case of an 83-year-old woman with a peri-implant femoral fracture after hip arthrodesis in adolescence. Due to the rarity of such operations, there is no standardized approach for these cases. In order to secure the treatment goal of rapid pain-adapted full weight bearing despite reduced bone quality, it was decided to perform anew osteosynthesis with aretrograde femoral nail after removal of some fixation screws of the existing arthrodesis plate. Due to this type of treatment, the preservation of activity and independence of an older trauma patient could be sustainably secured despite operative challenges. Taking an extended osteoporosis treatment into consideration, a bony fracture consolidation and complete convalescence of activity and autonomy were ultimately achieved. ...

There are only two ways an implant can lose attachment to the bone and fail once it has successfully fused: poor oral hygiene or excessive biting forces. Poor oral hygiene and/or a lack of regular cleanings can lead to a destructive bacterial infection called peri-implantitis. Flossing and brushing your teeth on a daily basis, along with regular professional cleanings, can prevent this. Excessive biting forces can come from either a habit of clenching or grinding your teeth, or an insufficient number of implants to handle the forces generated by your bite. You should receive the correct number of implants so this does not happen. And if you have a habit of grinding or clenching your teeth, a nightguard will be recommended to protect your implants. After all, implants are a long-term investment in your smile, your health and your well-being, so its best to protect your investment.. ...

The case demonstrated is of a severe peri-implantitis lesion with a 2 walled defect in a palatally positioned implant. Therefore, the position of the implant favours guided bone regeneration as well as gingival creep. There is a distinction between gingival creep and relapse of pocketing (ie oedema). The pictures demonstrate consistent pocketing with decreasing recession which basically means gain in attachment ...

It is a good idea for patients to remove the dentures each night before bed. This will allow patients to clean the area where the denture was in the patients mouth. Patients should not sleep with the dentures at night. The dentures should be soaked in a denture solution during the night. This is available as tablets that can be dissolved in water.. Even if a patient has no natural teeth left, it is still important to visit the dentist regularly. This can help the dentist to check that the patients oral and mouth tissues are still healthy. The dentist can check for any early signs of infection around the site of the implants. Without the right care, an infection known as peri-implantitis can develop around the implants. This disease is a type of gum disease. The good news is that it can be prevented with the right oral hygiene. ...

An example of photodynamic therapy, which is to say the deactivation of cells, microorganisms or molecules using high-intensity light (HLLT, High-Level Laser Therapy), rather than heat, employing a DIODE laser to achieve deep penetration of tissues. Using this laser in combination with the patented solution enables: A) maximal penetration; the wavelengths used can penetrate up to 2 cm into gingival and osseous tissues. B) the avoidance of thermal effect, due to low average power. C) effective antimicrobial action and biostimulation of tissues thanks to the properties of the patented solution. D) the production of singlet oxygen thanks to the use of high frequencies. It is a well-documented technique that has been used in the dental sector for more than 15 years. For the treatment of peri-implantitis, Periodontitis, bone regeneration and enhanced biostimulation of tissue. ...
