Abstract:
This perspective article on peri-implantitis and its prevention was produced as a supplement to a 3-D, computer-animated film aiming at presenting key characteristics of peri-implant health, the build-up of a biofilm and the ensuing host-response resulting in peri-implant mucositis and, subsequently, peri-implantitis. Treatment concepts for peri-implantitis were briefly reviewed, and prevention of the condition was brought to attention as a priority in implant dentistry. The overview also highlighted the 2017 World Workshop on Classification of Periodontal and Peri-implant diseases and Conditions, in which new disease definitions and case definitions were presented for peri-implant health, peri-implant mucositis, and peri-implantitis.
