Summary

This study compares two non-surgical methods to treat peri-implantitis, a condition where gum infection and bone loss occur around dental implants. Sixty adults with infected implants will receive cleaning with either a chitosan brush (made from natural shrimp shells) or a standard titanium curette. Researchers will track gum health, bone levels, and immune markers over 12 months to see which approach works better.
