Background:
To evaluate C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in peri-implantitis patients.
Material And Methods:

Another group of 50 volunteers who came in for a normal health checkup served as healthy controls. All the patients were recalled in the morning. Fasting venous blood samples were collected. CRP concentrations in the laboratory were determined using an auto-analyzer.
Results:
In this study, there were 40 females and 60 males. Mean CRP levels among subjects of the peri-implantitis group and the control group were 0.615 and 0.201 mg/dL, respectively.
Conclusion:
It was observed that mean CRP levels were higher among subjects having peri-implantitis as compared to the controls.
