Area of Science:

Dental implantology
Microsurgery
Regenerative medicine

Background:

Peri-implantitis reconstruction is challenging due to access limitations, poor bone structure, and soft tissue quality.
Traditional methods often yield unpredictable outcomes in treating peri-implant defects.

Observation:

A microsurgical approach utilizing an operating microscope (OM) with magnification (5-30x) and specialized instruments was employed.
The technique involved meticulous flap dissection, thorough decontamination using ultrasonic and air polishing devices, and biomaterial application (allografts/xenografts).

Findings:

The microsurgical technique facilitated precise decontamination and defect management.
All three patients experienced uneventful healing, significant radiographic bone fill, and resolution of peri-implantitis.
Follow-up periods ranged from 2 to 4 years, demonstrating sustained positive results.

Implications:

Microsurgery offers a more predictable solution for peri-implant defect reconstruction.
This approach may improve treatment outcomes by addressing limitations of conventional reconstructive methods.
Further research validating these findings in larger cohorts is warranted.
