Summary

The primary goal of the present prospective cohort study is to evaluate the effect of varying incidences of BOP at implant sites across 15 months of maintenance visits on the probability of peri-implant disease progression. Over 15 months, participants will attend 6 visits where clinical measurements and maintenance care will be performed every 3 months.

Conditions

  • Peri-Implantitis
  • Bleeding of Subgingival Space

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Clinical measurements

With the aid of a periodontal probe, the incidence of BOP, as well as PD, recession and KM will be assessed.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Radiographic measurement

A standardized periapical radiograph of the implant will be completed at the beginning and the end of study to determine the marginal bone loss.

PROCEDURE

Dental prophylaxis or maintenance

Dental prophylaxis or maintenance will be performed every 3 months.
