Study Reveals Impact of Prosthesis Contour on Peri-Implantitis Risk in Patients Under Periodontal Therapy

Posted: January 10, 2025
The study explores the link between prosthesis contour and peri-implantitis risk in patients under supportive periodontal therapy. Poor contour can lead to plaque buildup and increase peri-implantitis incidence. Analysis of 348 implants in 185 patients revealed a 14.9% peri-implantitis rate over 1509 days. Native bone implants had higher risk than alveolar ridge preservation. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.
