Article Abstract
Introduction: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the ability of air-powder abrasion to decontaminate dental implants.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-six implants were inoculated with a Streptococcus sanguinis biofilm media in a novel periimplantitis defect model. Six implants served as controls, and 20 implants were disinfected with either the Cavitron JET Plus or the AIR-FLOW PERIO air-powder abrasion units. Residual bacteria were cultured, and colony forming units (CFUs) were totaled at 24 hours.
Results: As expected, negative control implant cultures showed no evidence of viable bacteria. Bacterial growth was observed on all positive control cultures, whereas only 15% of the experimental cultures displayed evidence of viable bacteria. The average CFU per streak for the positive control was 104 compared with a maximum of 10 and 4 CFUs for the Cavitron JET Plus and AIR-FLOW PERIO, respectively. There was a 99.9% reduction in bacteria for both air-powder abrasion instruments.
Conclusion: Air-powder abrasion is an effective technique for the decontamination of dental implants, and the Cavitron JET Plus and AIR-FLOW PERIO are equally successful at eliminating viable bacteria from implant surfaces.

Cerebral air embolism (CAE) occurs in various clinical situations such as surgery, angiography, and hemodialysis; most are iatrogenic. Here we report the case of a 57-year-old man who developed CAE immediately after air-powder abrasive treatment, which is commonly used in dentistry. The patient underwent air-powder abrasive treatment for peri-implantitis, and immediately after the treatment, cardiac arrest occurred and cardio- pulmonary resuscitation was performed.

Peri-implantitis is a common complication characterized by inflammation in tissues surrounding dental implants due to plaque accumulation, which can lead to implant failure. While air flow abrasive treatment has been found to be effective for debriding implant surfaces, little is known about the factors that affect its cleaning capacity. This study systematically examined the cleaning capacity of air powder abrasive (APA) treatment with β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) powder, using various powder jetting strengths and different particle sizes.

Objectives: Analysis of the in vitro efficacy of non-surgical and surgical dental implant surface decontamination with or without suprastructure.
Materials And Methods: Three hundred and sixty implants were dipped in indelible red and distributed to 30°, 60°, or 90° angulated bone defect models. One hundred and twenty implants were used for each bone defect, 40 of which were assigned to a decontamination method (CUR: curette; SOSC: soundscaler; APA: air powder abrasion).

Peri-implant disease is usually caused by the accumulation of dental biofilm around the implant, and this biofilm can irradiate the gingiva tissue, which leads to inflammation and, more severely, to a deterioration of the bone structure. There is a concern regarding the removal of biofilm from the implant surface by using different hygiene instruments. Some hygiene instruments may have some effect on the dental implant surface, resulting in roughening or damage to the implant surfaces.

Decontamination of implant surfaces is important to the treatment of peri-implantitis. Er:YAG laser and air-powder abrasion system are regarded as the most effective means of decontamination of implant surfaces. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the activity of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) cultured on decontaminated sandblasted titanium discs using Er:YAG laser irradiation and air-powder abrasion.
