Abstract

|
|
Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory lesion of the periodontium surrounding an endosseous implant, with progressive loss of thesupporting peri-implant bone. The main purposes of treatment for peri-implantitis due to biological factors include addressing theinflammation and restoring a healthy but reduced periodontium around the implant, similar to the treatment of periodontitis innatural teeth. The proposed treatment protocol includes surgical treatment, mainly resective surgery, after non-surgical treatmentsuch as oral hygiene instructions, mechanical cleansing of the fixture, and general or topical antiseptic or antibiotic applicationaccording to the extent of inflammation. In this article, we present a 6-year follow-up case showing unusual marginal boneregeneration after resective surgery and decontamination of an implant surface for the treatment of peri-implantitis and discuss thepossible reasons.
