Abstract:
This RCT offers a nuanced understanding of nonsurgical peri-implantitis management (air polishing with erythritol versus ultrasonic instrumentation, in combination with systemic metronidazole), integrating both clinical and patient-centered outcomes. The results showed that the ultrasonic instrumentation reduced probing depth and bleeding on probing, throughout the 12-month period.
