Peri-implantitis is a pathological condition characterized by the inflammation of peri-implant connective tissues and progressive alveolar bone loss. There is a global concern about the increasing prevalence of this disease, which may affect up to 43% of implants in function. This cohort study will evaluated the long term follow up of a randomized, controlled, double-blind placebo study that evaluated the regenerative treatment of peri-implant diseases with surgical debridement and Er,Cr:YSGG AG laser associated with systemic antibiotics. A total of 80 subjects with peri-implantitis (PD\>5mm, BoP and/or sup, bone loss \>3mm) will be treated reavluated after 10years follow-up. Clinical, radiographic, and microbiological parameters will be recorded at baseline and 120 months follow-up. The primary outcome variable of this trial was be the difference between groups for the change in clinical attachment level from baseline to 6 months. We did consider composite outcomes, although not as the primary outcome. We also aim to evaluate the number and percentage of patients (and implants) reaching the following clinical endpoint for treatment: Probing depth \< 5mm, absence of bleeding on probing and no further bone loss (Heitz-Mayfield and Mombelli, 2014). The secondary variables will be the differences between groups in PI, GI, BOP, SUP and PD and microbial profile.

Peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis, are inflammatory conditions that affect the tissues surrounding dental implants. If untreated, these diseases can lead to bone loss and implant failure. This study investigates whether low oxygen levels (hypoxia) in the peri-implant environment influence ferroptosis, a type of cell death associated with oxidative stress. The research focuses on three key biomarkers: hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), glutathione peroxidase-4 (GPX-4), and malondialdehyde (MDA). A total of 45 participants with 62 dental implants were included in the study. They were divided into three groups: peri-implant health, peri-implant mucositis, and peri-implantitis. Peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) samples were collected, and the levels of HIF-1α, GPX-4, and MDA were measured using laboratory tests. The study aims to determine whether hypoxia affects ferroptosis-related pathways by altering GPX-4 and MDA levels. Understanding these mechanisms could provide new insights into peri-implant disease progression and help develop improved treatment strategies.
NCT06761521
68 patients underwent the aMMP-8 chair-side test as well as clinical traditional measurement methods. Those who had one or more implants in their mouth were selected as patients. The condition of the attachment tissues of these implants is monitored at a control visit after five years.

To date, systemic/local antibiotics, antimicrobials, laser application, and probiotics have been used as adjuncts to improve the outcome of non-surgical periodontal treatment for both periodontitis and peri-implantitis patients. H42® hydrogel, obtained by combining a high molecular weight hydrogel with type I collagen, is a collagen paste for regenerating periodontal/peri-implant pockets caused by periodontitis/peri-implantitis. This study aimed to clinically, biochemically, and radiologically evaluate the effect and reliability of hydrogel application into the pocket in addition to non-surgical periodontal treatment in the treatment of periodontal and peri-implant pockets. Fifteen patients with stage 2 periodontitis, each with 30 teeth and 30 implants with 5-8 mm pocket depth in the contralateral quadrants, and a total of 30 patients, will be equally divided into two groups. The test group will receive non-surgical periodontal treatment followed by H42 hydrogel application (Hydrogel Oral- 3 syr 0.4 cc/syr), while the control group will receive only non-surgical periodontal treatment. All patients will undergo the same procedure of non-surgical periodontal treatment
NCT06619158
This clinical trial is being conducted to study peri-implant mucositis (inflammation in the gums around dental implant that does not extend into the implant-supporting bone). There are currently no available treatment options able to provide long-term resolution of implant gum inflammation even with our current gold standard treatment of non-surgical cleanings and oral hygiene instructions. The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of crown glaze removal and subsequent polishing in addition to mechanical debridement compared to only mechanical debridement on the implant affected by implant gum inflammation. In this study, participants will be randomized (put into a group by chance) into one of 2 study groups, groups A and B. Group A: The implant crown will be cleaned with titanium scaling instruments and powered instruments. The screw-retained crown will be removed and the remaining build-up on the crown will be photographed. The crown will then be sent to a lab technician who will remove the glaze and polish the crown only in the areas that sit under the gums. Group B: The implant crown will be cleaned with titanium scaling instruments and powered instruments. The screw-retained crown will be removed and the remaining build-up on the crown will be photographed. The crown will then be sent to a lab technician to perform a superficial cleaning only. In both groups, the crown will be placed back on the implant and customized oral hygiene instructions will be provided. The study will require four appointment. Appointment #1 is the screening appointment and will take 30-60 minutes. Appointment #2 is when treatment is delivered and will occur within 4 weeks of appointment #1. Appointment #3 is for the short-term follow-up and will occur within 60-70 days of appointment #2. Appointment #4 is for the long-term follow-up and will occur within 12-13 months of appointment #2. All these appointment will be in an outpatient setting at the institutional graduate periodontics clinic. A total of 2 x-rays will be taken of the implant. One will be taken during appointment #1 to assess the bone around the implant. One will be taken during appointment #2 to ensure that the crown is fully seated when the crown is re-inserted. The following information will be collected in appointment #1: gum measurements around the implants, how tight the implant contacts adjacent teeth, when the crown was delivered, previous cleanings around the implant, age, sex, gender, previous systemic antibiotic use in the last 2 weeks, smoking habits, presence of diabetes and HbA1C values. At appointments #2, 3, and 4, the following information will be collected: plaque around implant, gum measurements around implants, previous systemic antibiotic use in the last 2 weeks, smoking habits, presence of diabetes and HbA1C values, gum fluid samples around the implant crown. In appointment #4, additionally, information on how the implant has been cleaned throughout the year will be collected.
