The patient has at least one endosseous implant in the oral cavity with remaining clinical and radiographical signs of peri\-implantitis. Peri\-implantitis is defined as probing pockets depths (PPD) of \* 5mm in combination with bleeding and/or suppuration on probing and radiographic bone loss \* 2 mm after placing the definitive restoration.
•\- The implants have been in function for at least two years;
•\- The patient is capable of understanding and giving informed consent.

•\- Medical and general contra\-indications for the procedures;
•\- A history of local radiotherapy to the head and neck region;
•\- Pregnancy and lactation;
•\- Uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c \< 7% or \< 53 mmol/mol);
•\- Use of antibiotics during the last 3 months;
•\- Known allergy to chlorhexidine;
•\- Long\-term use of anti\-inflammatory drugs;
•\- Incapability of performing basal oral hygiene measures as a result of physical or mental disorders;
•\- Active periodontal disease at remaining dentition (Probing pocket depth\*6mm, bleeding\*20%) and/or insufficient oral hygiene (plaque\*20%)
•\- Implants with bone loss exceeding 2/3 of the length of the implant or implants with bone loss beyond the transverse openings in hollow implants;
