Dental implant infection showdown: which cleaning method wins?
NCT ID NCT05615051
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
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 cleaning method better controls the infection and helps bone heal.
