PERI-IMPLANTITIS

This study tested whether adding a special collagen membrane to a standard bone graft surgery works better for treating serious infections around dental implants. 44 patients with infected implants were randomly assigned to receive either the bone graft alone or the bone graft wi…

This study tested two different gels to help control infection and inflammation around dental implants, a condition called peri-implantitis. Forty patients with this condition received a professional cleaning and were randomly assigned to have either Chlosite gel or Hybenix gel a…

This study tested if adding a special laser or an air-polishing device to standard cleaning works better for treating infection around dental implants. Researchers compared these two advanced cleaning methods in 47 patients with this common implant problem. The goal was to see wh…

This study tested a new method to help bone heal around dental implants placed right after a tooth is pulled. Researchers compared using a processed piece of the patient's own extracted tooth as a bone graft material against a standard method. The goal was to see if this approach…

This study checked how well a specific type of dental bridge works over time. Researchers followed 35 adults for at least one year after they received a special ceramic bridge attached to two implants, with an extra tooth extension. They measured whether the implants stayed healt…

This study compared two common tools for cleaning between teeth around dental implants: superfloss and small interdental brushes. It involved 52 adults with inflammation around their implants to see which tool better reduced plaque and gum bleeding. Participants were randomly ass…

This study tested if using a special laser is better than standard ultrasonic cleaning for treating infections around dental implants. Forty patients with this type of infection were randomly assigned to get one of the two treatments. Researchers checked for improvements in gum h…

This study tested whether using a custom 3D-printed surgical guide improves dental implant placement compared to the traditional freehand method. Researchers compared two groups of 30 total patients, measuring how stable the implants were and how much pain patients felt after sur…

This study tested whether a smartphone AI chatbot could help patients with dental implants keep their mouths cleaner and healthier. 110 patients were split into two groups: one used the chatbot for personalized tips and reminders, while the other received standard care like print…

This study aimed to better understand a condition called peri-implantitis, which is inflammation and bone loss around dental implants. Researchers measured specific protein levels in the fluid around the implants of 54 participants who had this condition. The goal was to see if t…

This study looked at whether the angle at which a dental implant crown emerges from the gum affects the health of the surrounding tissue. Researchers examined 192 implants in healthy adults, measuring gum health and the crown's angle. The goal was to gather knowledge to help dent…

This study aimed to understand if obesity makes people more prone to inflammation and problems around their dental implants. Researchers compared 80 people with and without obesity, measuring gum health and analyzing fluid from around the implants for signs of inflammation. The g…

This study looked at whether stress affects the health of tissues around dental implants. Researchers collected fluid samples from 62 people with healthy implants, mild inflammation, or more serious inflammation. They measured stress hormones and inflammation markers while also a…

This study followed 163 patients for 8-14 years after receiving dental implants to understand long-term satisfaction and complications. Researchers examined patients' mouths and asked about their experiences to identify what factors lead to successful implants versus problems lik…

This study aimed to understand if the common Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is involved in causing peri-implantitis, a serious infection that can destroy the bone around dental implants and lead to their loss. Researchers studied 30 adults who already had this implant infection to meas…

This study aimed to find out if the chemical makeup of saliva could help identify different stages of inflammation around dental implants and natural teeth. Researchers analyzed saliva samples from 120 people with varying levels of gum and implant health. The goal was to see if s…

This study aims to understand how patients perceive and experience diseases around their dental implants, and how these conditions affect their quality of life. Researchers surveyed 148 patients with dental implant problems about their symptoms and daily impacts. The study collec…
