Do implant gum disease treatments last? 3-year study seeks answers
NCT ID NCT07208643
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study follows 34 people who had treatment for severe gum disease around dental implants (peri-implantitis). Researchers want to see if the disease comes back or gets worse over 3 years. Participants will have a dental exam and X-ray at one follow-up visit. The goal is to learn how well the treatments hold up long-term.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * 1\. Patiens previously enrolled in the randomized clinical trial PER-ECL-2019-05, which included 36 patients with advanced peri-implantitis. 2\. Completion of the original study protocol, including either reconstructive surgical therapy following a non-surgical phase or non-surgical therapy alone. 3.Signed informed consent for participation in the follow-up assessment. Exclusion Criteria: * 1.Did not complete the original clinical trial protocol (PER-ECL-2019-05) or withdrew before final evaluation. 2.Had the implant removed due to complications unrelated to peri-implantitis progression. 3.Have developed systemic diseases or conditions (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, immunosuppression, malignancy) that may affect periodontal or peri-implant tissue healing or confound clinical outcomes. 4.Are currently undergoing antibiotic or antiresorptive therapy (e.g., bisphosphonates) that could interfere with bone metabolism. 5.Are pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of the follow-up visit. 6.Are unwilling or unable to attend the clinical follow-up appointment or provide informed consent.
