Overview
Brief Summary
Peri-implant diseases are common post-restorative complications in implant rehabilitations and they occur with an incidence of 12-43%. Based on the available data in literature, the surgical therapy for peri-implantitis is effective in disease resolution. Surgical access to peri-implant lesions facilitates the removal of all granulation tissue from the defect area as well as debridement and decontamination of the exposed implant surface defect area. Different techniques have been used for implant surface decontamination during peri-implant surgery, including mechanical, chemical and laser treatments.
Detailed Description
Peri-implantitis are defined as inflammatory diseases caused by bacterial biofilm around implant surface characterized by bleeding on probing, probing depth and eventually bone loss; if not successfully treated they may lead to implant loss. Based on the available parameters that have been reported in literature non surgical therapy doesn't seem to be effective on peri-implantitis. Therefore it is recommended to consider advanced therapies such as surgical interventions when non surgical peri-implant therapy fails to achieve significant improvements in clinical parameters. Numerous approaches have been used for implant surface decontamination during per-implant surgery, including mechanical, chemical and laser treatments. Conventional mechanical means don't seem to be effective on peri-implant diseases. In addition, the rough implant surface is a retentive factor for bacterial colonization and therefore makes implant surface difficult to debride. Another problem in maintaining implant health concerns the presence or absence of keratinised tissue around implant: if present, it seams to help the patient to maintain an optimal level of oral hygiene around implant and therefore the implant survival itself. The aim of the present randomized controlled clinical trial is to assess the influence of keratinised tissue around implant in improving clinical parameters. In particular, implant surface will be decontaminated mechanically with titanium curettes and chemically using chlorhexidine; after this a CTG around tissue implant will be randomized

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Bleeding on probing changes
Time Frame: baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment
changes of bleeding on probing, evaluated as present if bleeding will be evident within 30 s after probing, or absent, if no bleeding will be noticed within 30 s after probing
Secondary Outcomes
- probing pocket depth changes(baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment)
- bone level changes(baseline and 12 months after treatment)
- clinical attachment level changes(baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment)
- mucosal recession changes(baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment)
