Peri-implantitis

Peri-implantitis is an infection around a dental implant that can damage the surrounding bone. Researchers are comparing four non-surgical cleaning methods, including mechanical debridement with titanium curettes, in 70 implants, 56 with peri-implantitis and 14 healthy controls. …

This study compares two barrier materials used in surgery to repair bone loss around dental implants: a membrane made from donated birth tissue (amnion-chorion) and a standard collagen membrane. Fifty-six adults with peri-implantitis (infection and bone loss around an implant) wi…

This study tests whether a new electrolytic cleaning method can improve treatment for peri-implantitis, a gum infection around dental implants. About 80 adults will receive either standard surgical cleaning or standard cleaning plus an electric spark treatment. Researchers will m…

This study tests a new, less invasive cleaning method called MINST for treating peri-implantitis, an infection around dental implants that can cause bone loss and implant failure. Researchers will compare MINST to the standard cleaning method in 80 adults with the condition. The …

This study tests whether a gel made from polynucleotide and hyaluronic acid can improve treatment for peri-implantitis, a gum infection around dental implants. Thirty-two adults with infected implants will receive standard deep cleaning plus either the gel or a placebo. The main …

This study looks at whether tiny metal particles from dental implants are linked to peri-implantitis, a severe gum infection around implants. Researchers will compare tissue samples from 50 people, some with healthy implants and some with peri-implantitis. They will measure metal…

This study follows 45 adults with peri-implantitis—an infection around dental implants—to see how treatment affects their oral health-related quality of life and pain. Researchers measure patient-reported outcomes at diagnosis, after non-surgical and surgical treatments, and at a…

This study will check if dental implants that are hard to probe (because of their crown design) are more likely to have bone loss around them. Researchers will examine 281 people with implants that have been in place for at least three years. No new treatments are given—this is p…

This study will measure vitamin D and a natural antimicrobial peptide called LL-37 in the fluid around dental implants. Researchers want to see if these levels can help detect early signs of peri-implantitis or mucositis. The study includes 72 adults aged 18-65 who have had impla…
