No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A laser treatment for periimplantitis using two different wavelengths (Er:YAG and Nd:YAG) will be compared to standard treatment in a randomized clinical trial.

Conditions

  • Peri-Implantitis

Interventions

DEVICE

Lightwalker Laser (Fotona)

For the laser group we will use a Lightwalker Laser (Fotona) with a Er:YAG 2940 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelengths units. The laser protocol will follow the instructions of the manufacturer (TwinLight protocol) and consists of degranulation of necrotic soft tissue and bone, implant surface disinfection and creating spot bleeding in bone with Er:YAG and deep disinfection and biomodulation with Nd:YAG.

OTHER

standard

Granulation tissue elimination, mechanical instrumentation of the implant surface and curettage of intraosseous or supracrestally bone defects will be accomplished using plastic curets, under irrigation with sterile saline solution. Cotton pellets soaked in sterile saline solution will be use to clean debris and remains of removed tissue.
