- 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.
A treatment protocol that may offer an advantage over traditional mechanical treatment includes the use of laser therapy and air-powder devices. Data have shown that treatments with Er.Yag laser have a bactericidal effect and are safe and effective on implant surfaces. Slightly better clinical results in terms of debridement, probing depth, bleeding on probing and clinical attachment level have been reported by Er:Yag laser treatment compared with traditional non surgical mechanical debridement with titanium curettes and pellet with saline in the surgical treatment of peri-implantitis.
The air abrasive method for debridement has also been used on implant surfaces demonstrating no relevant adverse effect. Until now, powders based on sodium bicarbonate and glycine have been used with pressured air/water. Nowadays a less abrasive method involves the use of erythritol powder.
The aim of the present randomized controlled clinical trial is to assess the efficacy in improving clinical parameters of two further methods of implant decontamination (er:Yag laser or air-abrasive device) after chemical treatment and chemical cleaning during surgical treatment of peri-implantitis in addition to chlorhexidine in vertical defects with keratinised tissue around implant surfaces. Furthermore the bone defect will be filled with bio-material.

- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Chlorhexidine chlorhexidine Access flap will be raised to gain access to the implant surface. Inflammatory tissue, excess cement or plaque deposits will be removed using titanium curettes and the implant surface will be cleaned by copious irrigation with sterile saline and surgical gauze soaked in Chlorhexidine. Air Powder chlorhexidine An Air-Powder treatment will be provided on the implant surface Er:YAG laser chlorhexidine Er: Yag laser treatment will be provided on the implant surface.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Bleeding on probing changes 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 Outcome Measures
Name Time Method probing pocket depth changes baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment changes in probing depth probing, measured from gingival margin to te tip of the probe
clinical attachment level changes baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment changes in clinical attachment level, measured from CEJ to the tip of the probe
mucosal recession changes baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment changes in mucosal recession, measured from CEJ to gingival margin
bone level changes baseline and 12 months after treatment changes in bone level at mesial and distal aspect, measured on periapical X-ray
