Summary

Erythritol is a natural sugar alcohol (a four-carbon polyol) produced by the reduction of erythrose. It is considered safe as food additive and has many of the functional properties that are important for subgingival debridement. Current evidence includes no prospective studies comparing the outcomes of a low abrasive erythritol air-polishing as an adjunctive therapy to conventional titanium and ultrasonic debridement of patients in a maintenance program with peri-implantitis. Thus, the main purpose of this randomized, single-masked controlled trial (RCT) is to assess whether low abrasive erythritol air-polishing has an adjunct effect to conventional non-surgical treatment of peri-implantitis.
