Filter by:Peri-implantitis is defined as inflammation in the mucosa surrounding an oral implant with loss of supporting bone. The goals of peri-implantitis treatment are to resolve inflammation and to arrest the progression of disease. It is important to systematically gather information on the effect of surgical peri-implant treatment and to assess different protocols regarding chair-side maintenance of peri-implant tissue after surgery The aims of this clinical investigation are to evaluate the clinical, microbiological and radiographic outcomes of surgical treatment of peri-implantitis and to evaluate the efficacy of 2 supportive treatment protocols based on the use of titanium cyrettes or by the use of a flexible, biodegradable chitosan brush. Furthermore, to evaluate the impact of this therapy on selected biochemical markers associated with chronic inflammation and bone tissue destruction.
The purpose of the study was to evaluate, from a microbiological point of view, microbiota around teeth and implants in the same patient affected by periodontal disease and peri-implant disease, all compared with a healthy tooth. From the identification of particular bacterial species in the examined sites, it is intended to be traced back to the identification of a clear etiopathogenic process, which may shed light on the similarities and differences between the two diseases. In recognition of these mechanisms, the investigators think to develop new therapeutic strategies for the future.
Dental implants have revolutionized the field of dentistry, providing improvements in function and esthetics. They are not, however, without risks. Bone loss around implants (i.e. periimplantitis) is an emerging public health concern. Untreated, peri-implantitis leads to implant loss and jawbone defects. Nonetheless, existing therapies have failed to show long-term efficacy. The pathogenesis of peri-implantitis is believed to be of bacterial etiology similar to periodontal disease. Therefore, existing treatments duplicate strategies for the treatment of natural teeth. However, the titanium (Ti) surface of implants is quite dissimilar to teeth. Recent work from our lab has demonstrated that peri-implantitis is associated with increased release of Ti particles around implants. These findings suggest that treatments targeting periimplantitis must be designed around Ti material properties. A gap in knowledge exists regarding the potential triggers of increased Ti dissolution from the implant surface and the mechanisms by which Ti dissolution products amplify peri-implant inflammation. The aim of this study is to determine if the use of tooth-driven treatment approaches increase Ti in the submucosal plaque.
The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical and patient-centered outcomes of non-surgical mechanical debridement with adjunctive repeated diode laser application (test) in comparison with conventional surgical treatment and adjunctive systemic antibiotics (control), for treatment of peri-implantitis lesions, following an observation period of one year.
34 patients diagnosed with mild to moderate peri-implantitis, defined as 2-4 mm peri-implant bone loss, will be randomized to either test treatment with Labrida BioClean® or control treatment with titanium curettes. In total 40 subjects (20 % drop-out rate), treated by 5 clinicians at 5 centers will be included in the study.
Considering the frequent occurence of peri-implantitis and mucositis, a multiple of treatment alternatives have been proposed including non-surgical and surgical procedures. However, it seems that the most effective treatment remains prevention of these diseases. The aim of this study is to emphasize on mucositis and peri-implantitis prevention using an air abrasion device the Air-Flow Master Piezon® with erythritol and chlorhexidine powder in order to eliminate and / or disorganize the biofilm responsible for peri-implant mucosa inflammation.
More than ninety percent of adults in Taiwan are suspected to carry periodontal disease, which causes bad breath, swollen and bleeding gums, plaque and even tooth loss. Half of the patients, however, are ignorance these clinical syndromes because of no obvious pain. In this study, the investigators selected six periodontal disease-associated bacteria strains, including Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Tannerella forsythia (Tf), Treponema denticola (Td) and Prevotella intermedia (Pi) as diagnostic markers. Using real-time PCR and MALDI Biotyper, the investigators will establish the database of oral microorganisms in Taiwanese people, providing periodontal disease clinical markers of high-risk groups and the basis for personal medicine of therapy in the future.
This study evaluates the efficacy of 1% local metformin gel in deep periimplant pockets of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Half of the participants will receive 1% metformin gel with manual debridement while the other half will receive a placebo with manual debridement.
In this randomized, controlled study, 18 patients with peri-implantitis were included. A total of forty dental implants were debrided with either ultrasonic instruments (test, n=20) or plastic scaler (control, n=20). Gingival recession depth (RD), keratinized tissue width (KTW), probing depth (PD), Gingival Index (GI) were evaluated at baseline and after 6 months. CBCT radiographs were used to evaluate peri-implant bone loss. Supportive and nonsurgical periodontal therapies were firstly consulted to reduce the inflammation, occurring due to the surgical treatments of the defects. The formation of bacterial biofilm on implant surfaces was removed by ultrasonic scaler and air polishing using abrasive powders or conventional plastic scaler with klorhegsidin combination.
Single arm study to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment approach using a new moldable beta-tricalcium phosphate(TCP) bone graft material and polylactide membrane in peri-implantitis.
