Peri-implantitis is one of the most common complication in implant dentistry. Dental implants require careful case and patient selection, surgical assessment and prosthetically driven implant placement.
Long-term success of implant-supported prosthesis also requires an implant maintenance regimen to monitor and detect peri-implant diseases and conditions.
This lecture will provide a blueprint to help clinicians prevent the onset of peri-implantitis and highlight clinical and surgical techniques in the management of implants suffering from advanced peri-implant disease.
