Background: This systematic review aims to assess the current evidence on the efficacy of surgical and non-surgical debridement techniques in the treatment of peri-implantitis lesions without the use of any antimicrobials.

Method: Five electronic databases (MEDLINE, Pubmed, Scopus, CINAHL and Cochrane) were used, alongside hand searches, to find relevant articles. Full-text articles that were randomised controlled trials, published in the English language from 2011 onwards without pre-operative, peri-operative and post-operative antibiotic usage were included. The study was conducted according to the latest Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA)-P protocols, the latest Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and each investigated intervention was evaluated using the grading of recommendation, assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) system.

Results: The search yielded 2718 results. After initial screening, 38 full-text articles were assessed for eligibility. From these, 11 studies satisfied all inclusion criteria. These 11 articles described six non-surgical and five surgical debridement therapies. Most articles were classified as having either a high risk of bias or presenting with some concerns. Small sample sizes, in combination with this risk of bias, meant that all interventions were adjudged to be of either low or very low quality of evidence.

Conclusion: While all investigated modalities displayed some sort of efficacy, this review suggests that a surgical approach may be best suited to treating peri-implantitis lesions in the absence of antibiotic therapy. Despite this weak indication, further research is required in this field.

DNA and RNA Methylation in Periodontal and Peri-implant Diseases.

J Dent Res

Department of Oral Biochemistry, Institute of Odontology, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Sweden.

Periodontal and peri-implant diseases are primarily biofilm-induced pathologies in susceptible hosts affecting the periodontium and dental implants. Differences in disease susceptibility, severity, and patterns of progression have been attributed to immune regulatory mechanisms such as epigenetics. DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic mechanism governing gene expression that plays pivotal roles in genomic imprinting, chromosomal stability, apoptosis, and aging.

Case Presentation: Although most peri-implant lesions feature a combined defect configuration that involves both supra- and infraosseous components, regenerating the supraosseous part is considered the optimal approach, albeit a challenging one, and often requires vertical bone augmentation. This report provides a detailed description of submerged membrane techniques for vertical bone augmentation around supraosseous peri-implant defects. Cases involving different types of membrane (both resorbable and non-resorbable) with or without the use of bone graft are presented.

Peri-implant bone regeneration in pigs.

Int J Implant Dent

November 2024

Department of Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.

Purpose: To review the current literature to answer the focused question: in the experimental pig model (population), which types of peri-implant bone defects (exposure) have been used evaluate different modes of therapy and what is their capacity for spontaneous healing and regeneration (outcome)?

Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, electronic databases were searched for studies reporting peri-implant bone defects in the maxillae or mandibles of pigs. Those studies which reported a control group of untreated defects with assessment of spontaneous regeneration [new bone area (BA)] and/or re-osseointegration [new bone-to-implant contact (BIC)] via quantitative radiography or histomorphometry were included in a random effects meta-analysis for the outcomes BA and BIC.

Results: Overall, 21 studies, mostly performed in the mandibles of minipigs, were included.

Article Synopsis
  • The text reviews retrograde peri-implantitis (RPI), a specific type of dental inflammation that starts at the base of an implant and can cause implant failure, highlighting its growing significance in the field of implantology.
  • Factors such as untreated dental issues from nearby teeth are key contributors to the development of RPI.
  • The paper emphasizes the need for improved evaluation and management of these dental issues by clinicians, promoting new research and treatment methods to enhance prevention and diagnosis of RPI.

Article Synopsis
  • - Craniofacial and alveolar bone defects from various causes (like tumors, trauma, or tooth loss) present significant challenges in tissue engineering and dental surgery, especially in cases of periodontal disease.
  • - Specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) like lipoxins, resolvins, protectins, and maresins are being researched for their potential to enhance bone regeneration and restore tissue healing in craniofacial applications.
  • - A total of 19 pre-clinical studies examined the effects of SPMs on bone regeneration, showing that SPMs notably increased new bone formation by about 14.85% and reduced defect size, with RvE1 and RvD2 demonstrating
