Plaque accumulation on the implant titanium surface plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of periimplant disease. Removing plaque and calculus deposits, and reducing the periimplant probing depth, therefore, are important. The reduction of the periimplant probing depth in periimplant disease by using a cord and a surgical dressing pack has not been previously reported. This procedure is useful for periimplant mucositis and mild periimplantitis before a surgical intervention and can maintain a narrow keratinized mucosa with less pain than surgical intervention.

Multi-Functional Bio-HJzyme Engineered Polyetheretherketone Implant with Cascade-Amplification Therapeutic Capabilities Toward Intractable Implant-Associated Infections.
Small
December 2024
State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases, School of Chemical Engineering, National Center for Stomatology & National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.
Intractable implant-associated infections (IAIs) are the primary cause of prosthetic implant failure, particularly in the context of diabetes mellitus. There is an urgent need to design and construct versatile engineered implants integrated with cascade amplification therapeutic modality to significantly improve the treatment of diabetic IAIs. To address this issue, a multi-functional MXene/AgPO@glucose oxidase bio-heterojunction enzyme (M/A@GOx bio-HJzyme) coating is developed, which is decorated with an inert sulfonated polyetheretherketone implant (SP-M/A@G) via hydrothermal treatment and layered deposition.

Department of Periodontics and Community Dentistry, College of Dentistry, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Electronic address:
Objective: The objective was to systematically review original studies that assessed the influence of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) for managing peri-implant diseases among habitual nicotinic product (NP) users.
Methods: The research question was "Is aPDT effective for managing peri-implant diseases among NP users?" Indexed databases (PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, and ISI Web of Knowledge) and Google Scholar were searched up to and including December 2024 without time and language barriers. Using Boolean operators, the following keywords were searched in different combinations: antimicrobial photodynamic therapy; crestal bone loss; peri-implant diseases; probing depth; nicotine; and smoking.
The Effects of Different Hygiene Instrumentations on Titanium Implant Fixture Surfaces.

School of Dental Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Kota Bharu, MYS.
Background and objective Applying different hygiene tools for implant maintenance alters surface configurations, impacting bacterial adhesion on titanium implant surfaces and potentially leading to peri-implant diseases. This study aimed to assess the alterations in surface topography of titanium implant fixtures after utilizing hygiene instruments such as airflow; erbium, chromium-doped: yttrium, scandium, gallium, and garnet (Er, Cr: YSGG) laser; and titanium brush, under scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation. Materials and methods We employed an experimental laboratory study design for this research, involving 20 MegaGen ST titanium implant fixtures (MegaGen Implant Co.

Statement Of Problem: Excess cement in implant-supported restorations can lead to peri-implant diseases, and its removal remains a clinical challenge. The optimum method of minimizing excess cement is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare 3 cementation techniques and 3 cement types and measure excess cement.
Potential Impact of Microbial Variations After Peri-Implantitis Treatment on Peri-Implant Clinical, Radiographic, and Crevicular Parameters: A Systematic Review.
Dent J (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, University of Salerno, Via S. Allende, 84081 Salerno, Italy.
This systematic review evaluated concomitant trends in microbial (total biofilm load and pre-dominant pathogens' counts) and clinical, radiographic, and crevicular variations following (any) peri-implantitis treatment in partially vs. totally edentulous, systemically healthy, non-smoking adults and compared them to peri-implant mucositis treated sites. The study protocol, compliant with the PRISMA statement, was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024514521).
