Summary: Dental implants are commonly used to replace lost teeth, and titanium implants have a high success rate. However, there is an increasing risk of peri-implantitis, an inflammatory disease that affects the tissues around the implant. This review highlights the impact of different metabolic conditions on peri-implantitis and emphasizes the importance of considering both local and systemic factors in dental implant procedures and treatment.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of clinical and radiographic evaluations made at a single time point during follow-up. The bone levels observed at 9 years were highly accurate in identifying pronounced bone loss. In the absence of baseline documentation, a secondary case definition based on clinical findings provided the best overall diagnostic accuracy in identifying peri-implantitis cases.

Summary: This systematic review estimates the overall prevalence of peri-implantitis and explores the impact of different study designs, function times, and use of probing depth on the prevalence rate. The results show that the prevalence of peri-implantitis is highly variable and the use of probing depth as a diagnostic criterion affects the prevalence data. It is important to identify diagnostic markers for more accurate disease classification.

Summary: In recent decades, there have been significant advances in ortho-aesthetic-functional rehabilitation with the introduction of implantology. However, there is still a percentage of failures in implantology surgeries, mainly due to infections caused by bacterial proliferation, fungi presence, and biofilm formation, leading to peri-implantitis. Various studies have been conducted to explore the interaction between the host-oral microbiome and the development of peri-implantitis. Peri-implantitis is associated with a diversity of bacterial species, with Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythia being identified in higher proportions of peri-implantitis samples. In addition, the injury of peri-implant tissue triggers an inflammatory response mediated by the activation of innate immune cells, such as macrophages, dendritic cells, mast cells, and neutrophils. Activation of the host immune system may disrupt the balance of oral microbiota, leading to dysbiosis and the production of various substances that contribute to implant loss.

Summary: Peri-implantitis is a common disease characterized by inflammation in the tissues around dental implants, leading to bone loss. Nonideal conditions in implant therapy, such as poor planning and insufficient periodontal therapy, may contribute to its progression. There is a good level of evidence for certain factors, while more research is needed to identify others and their long-term impact on peri-implantitis.

Summary: The study found that the presence of a prosthesis in implants without interproximal bone loss led to an underestimation of probing depth, which was more significant in implants diagnosed with mucositis. However, the difference in probing depth with and without a crown was not significantly affected by diagnosis or implant location, except for buccal sites.

Summary: Bleeding on probing (BOP) is an indispensable diagnostic tool for evaluating periodontal disease, but its role in peri-implant disease is more complex. The confusion in interpretation is due to differences in how BOP originates and is used in implants. A comprehensive bleeding index and other parameters should be used together for diagnosing peri-implant diseases accurately.

Summary: The study found that the adjunctive use of AMX and MTZ antibiotics did not significantly improve the clinical and microbiological outcomes of non-surgical treatment for peri-implantitis. Meticulously performed full-mouth non-surgical treatment and maintaining high levels of oral hygiene are crucial for the initial phase of subsequent peri-implantitis treatment.
