Gum health around implants: what matters?
NCT ID NCT07564687
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 272 dental implants in 165 adults to understand what affects gum health around implants. Researchers measured things like plaque, bleeding, and gum thickness. They compared implants with healthy gums to those with early-stage gum inflammation (peri-implant mucositis) to find differences.
