Abstract
|
|
|
|
Peri-implantitis is the inflammatory process, such as edema, bleeding, pus, of the mucosa surrounding dental implants. As the symptoms become severe, the surrounding bone is absorbed causing the implant surface to be exposed. Clinicians treat periimplantitis in various ways since a gold standard for the treatment of peri-implantitis has not been established. Various treatment methods include mechanical, chemical surface treatment and surgical excision, and recently decontamination of the implant surface using various types of lasers has been proposed. Thus, this study reviews the types of lasers and its effects that can be used for the treatment of peri-implantitis.
