PERI-IMPLANTITIS

This study tests two methods for cleaning infected dental implants (peri-implantitis) in 60 adults. One method uses an electric current (electrolytic approach), the other uses hydrogen peroxide. Both are followed by bone grafting to repair damage. The goal is to see which cleanin…

This study compares two surgical treatments for peri-implantitis, a serious gum infection around dental implants. Fifty-two adults will receive either a bone graft alone or a bone graft covered with a resorbable collagen membrane. The goal is to see which method better stops infe…

This study tests a new reinforced PTFE mesh (RPM) against a standard collagen membrane for treating peri-implantitis, a gum infection around dental implants. Thirty-two adults with at least one infected implant will receive surgery to clean the implant, fill the bone defect with …

This study examines people who had surgery for peri-implantitis—a serious gum infection around dental implants—20 to 25 years ago. Researchers compare two surgical methods: using a bone substitute alone versus combining it with a resorbable membrane. By checking bone levels, pock…

This study compares two methods—air-polishing with a special powder versus scraping with a titanium tool—to clean infected dental implants. Researchers will test both methods on 90 adults whose implants need removal due to severe infection. After cleaning, the implants will be an…

This study follows 164 adults with dental implants for 15 months to see if bleeding when the dentist probes the gums can predict bone loss around the implant. Participants attend check-ups every 3 months, where the dentist measures bleeding and takes X-rays to track bone levels. …

This study looks at how dental implants heal from gum inflammation (peri-implant mucositis). Researchers will compare implants that were previously treated with or without a smoothing procedure called implantoplasty. Thirty adults with healthy implants will stop cleaning those ar…

This study examines whether the inner shape (concave or convex) of full-arch implant-supported dental prostheses is linked to bone loss around implants. Researchers will scan the prostheses and measure bone levels in 50 adults who have had these implants for at least a year. The …
