Use of wide-field optical fluorescence for visualization of oral biofilm in a patient with peri-implant mucositis: a new approach

ABSTRACT Peri-implant diseases, caused by bacteria from biofilm related to dental implants, are one of the main causes of late loss of implants. In this sense, peri-implant diseases are divided into peri-implant mucositis, when it affects only the soft tissues, and peri-implantitis, when there is a bone ...

Implant-based factor as possible risk for peri-implantitis

Braz. oral res. (Online); 33 (supl.1), 2019
Abstract Peri-implantitis is currently a topic of major interest in implantology. Considered one of the main reasons of late implant failure, there is an emerged concern whether implant characteristics could trigger inflammatory lesion and loss of supporting bone. The purpose of this narrative review is ...

The impact of maintenance on peri-implant health

Braz. oral res. (Online); 33 (supl.1), 2019
Abstract Most of the literature evaluating dental implants focuses on implant survival, which is a limited proxy for the successful rehabilitation of patients with missing teeth. Success should include not only survival but also lack of mechanical, biological, and esthetics problems. A comprehensive revi...

Does traumatic occlusal forces lead to peri-implant bone loss? A systematic review

Braz. oral res. (Online); 33 (supl.1), 2019
Abstract Observational studies have indicated that crestal bone level changes at implants are typically associated with clinical signs of inflammation, but still mechanical overload has been described as possible factor leading to hard-tissue deficiencies at implant sites without mucosal inflammation. Th...

Prevalence of peri-implant diseases - a critical review on the current evidence

Braz. oral res. (Online); 33 (supl.1), 2019
Abstract The objective of this paper was to evaluate the current evidence reporting on the prevalence of peri-implantitis and to determine the influencing factors. An electronic search for articles published until February 2019 reporting on the prevalence of peri-implantitis was performed in MEDLINE. Inc...

An umbrella review on the effects of diabetes on implant failure and peri-implant diseases

Braz. oral res. (Online); 33 (supl.1), 2019
Abstract The aim of this review is to summarize the evidence on associations between diabetes mellitus (DM) and complications around dental implants. Electronic database searches of MEDLINE, EMBASE, JBI Database of Systematic Reviews and Implementation Reports, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and...
