    Input: OBJECTIVE To monitor clinical , microbiological and host-derived alterations occurring around teeth and titanium implants during the development of experimental gingivitis/mucositis and their respective healing sequence in humans . MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifteen subjects with healthy or treated periodontal conditions and restored with dental implants underwent an experimental 3-week period of undisturbed plaque accumulation in the m and ible . Subsequently , a 3-week period with optimal plaque control was instituted . At Days 0 , 7 , 14 , 21 , 28 , 35 and 42 , the presence/absence of plaque deposits around teeth and implants was assessed , ( plaque index [ PlI ] ) and the gingival/mucosal conditions were evaluated ( gingival index[GI ] ) . Subgingival/submucosal plaque sample s and gingival/mucosal crevicular fluid ( CF ) sample s were collected from two pre-determined sites around each experimental unit . CF sample s were analyzed for matrix-metalloproteinase-8 ( MMP-8 ) and interleukin-1beta ( IL-1β ) . Microbial sample s were analyzed using DNA-DNA hybridization for 40 species . RESULTS During 3 weeks of plaque accumulation , the median PlI and GI increased significantly at implants and teeth . Implant sites yielded a greater increase in the median GI compared with tooth sites . Over the 6-week experimental period , the CF levels of MMP-8 were statistically significantly higher at implants compared with teeth ( P<0.05 ) . The CF IL-1β levels did not differ statistically significantly between teeth and implants ( P>0.05 ) . No differences in the total DNA counts between implant and tooth sites were found at any time points . No differences in the detection frequency were found for putative periodontal pathogens between implant and tooth sites . CONCLUSION Peri-implant soft tissues developed a stronger inflammatory response to experimental plaque accumulation when compared with that of their gingival counterparts . Experimental gingivitis and peri-implant mucositis were reversible at the biomarker level . Clinical ly , however , 3 weeks of resumed plaque control did not yield pre-experimental levels of gingival and peri-implant mucosal health indicating that longer healing periods are needed AIM To determine the incidence of peri-implantitis in individuals with mucositis in a 5-year follow-up study . MATERIAL AND METHODS A sample of 212 partially edentulous individuals , rehabilitated with dental implants , underwent periodontal and peri-implant clinical examinations in 2005 ( baseline ) . Five years later , 80 individuals who had been diagnosed with mucositis in the baseline examination were re-examined . These individuals were divided into two groups : one group with preventive maintenance during the study period ( GTP ; n = 39 ) , and another group without preventive maintenance ( GNTP ; n = 41 ) . The following parameters were clinical ly evaluated : plaque index , bleeding on periodontal and peri-implant probing , periodontal and peri-implant probing depth , suppuration and peri-implant bone loss . The influence of biological and behavioural risk variables associated with the occurrence of peri-implantitis was analysed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses . RESULTS The incidence of peri-implantitis in the global sample was 31.2 % ( GNTP = 43.9 % and GTP = 18.0 % ) . CONCLUSION The absence of preventive maintenance in individuals with pre-existing peri-implant mucositis was associated with a high incidence of peri-implantitis . Clinical parameters , such as bleeding on peri-implant probing , periodontal probing depth and the presence of periodontitis were associated with a higher risk of developing peri-implantitis PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of irrigation with 0.06 % chlorhexidine ( PerioGard ) ( CHX ) using a powered oral irrigator ( Water Pik ) with a special subgingival irrigating tip ( Pik Pocket Subgingival Tip ) compared to rinsing with 0.12 % chlorhexidine gluconate once daily . MATERIAL S AND METHODS Following a prophylaxis , patients were r and omly assigned to an irrigation or a rinse group . The following clinical parameters were measured at baseline and at the 3-month end of the study : Modified Gingival Index ( MGI ) , Plaque Index ( PI ) , Bleeding Index ( BI ) , and Calculus Index ( CI ) . Also , a Stain Index ( SI ) was measured at 3 months . RESULTS Patients irrigating with diluted CHX showed a statistically significant reduction ( P < 0.05 ) from their baseline in the MGI , PI , BI , and CI scores at 3 months . In the rinse group both MGI and BI showed statistically significant reduction from their baseline ( P < 0.05 ) at 3 months . The rinse group showed a nonsignificant ( P > 0.05 ) increase from baseline in CI and a nonsignificant decrease in PI . Intergroup comparisons showed that CHX irrigation produced statistically significantly greater reductions than CHX rinsing in the PI , MGI , and SI . The irrigation group also showed a greater reduction in BI and CI than the rinsing group but these differences were not statistically significant ( P = 0.12 ) . The results of this study suggest that use of diluted 0.06 % CHX when used in a powered irrigator may be a valuable adjunct to oral health in patients with implants OBJECTIVES To evaluate clinical ly and radiographically immediate implants 5 years after insertion and to compare them with delayed-placed implants in the same subjects . MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-two consecutive patients that needed at least two implants for replacing hopeless teeth , one immediately upon extraction and the other in a delayed fashion ( at least 4 months post- extraction ) were selected in this prospect i ve cohort study . Post- extraction immediate implants ( II ) and delayed implants ( DI ) groups were defined . One and 5 years after implant loading , clinical and radiographical outcome variables were recorded and analysed both at site and at implant level . Intra-group and inter-group comparisons were performed . RESULTS The intergroup comparison did not show significant differences for plaque index , bleeding on probing and suppuration . These parameters worsen in both groups along the study . This trend was stronger for the plaque index in the group II , which increased from 15.6 % at 1 year to 25.9 % at 5 years ( P < 0.04 ) . One year after loading , the sites with probing depth ≥5 mm were higher for the group II compared to DI ( 2.5 % vs. 0 % ; P = 0.049 ) . At the end of the study , no significant statistical differences were found . Radiographically , bone crestal changes did not yield significant differences . During the follow-up period , 25 % of the implants ( 26.4 % in group II and 23.5 % in DI ) showed biological complications : mucositis ( 20 % ) and /or periimplantitis ( 5.8 % ) . No differences between groups were found . CONCLUSIONS Within the same patients , the implants placed with the immediate protocol demonstrated a higher tendency to crestal bone loss and to peri-implantitis , although these differences were not statistically significant AIM Supportive therapy to maintain dental implants is increasingly important . This study examined the effect of a 0.3 % triclosan/2 % copolymer dentifrice on oral biofilms and gingival inflammation ( GI ) on dental implants and peri-implant tissues . MATERIAL S AND METHODS One hundred and twenty adults with a dental implant and contra-lateral tooth were enrolled in this 6 month , double-blind , two-treatment , parallel group study . Sixty subjects were r and omly assigned to a triclosan/copolymer dentifrice test group and 60 subjects to a fluoride dentifrice control group and instructed to brush twice daily for 6 months . At baseline , 3 , and 6 months , a calibrated dentist assessed dental plaque , GI and collected supragingival dental plaque for microbiological analysis . RESULTS Subjects in the triclosan/copolymer group demonstrated significantly lower levels of dental plaque , gingivitis , and bleeding on probing at 3 and 6 months at both the implant and contra-lateral tooth compared with the fluoride group ( p<0.05 ) . There were significantly fewer Gram-negative anaerobes in the triclosan/copolymer group ( p<0.05 ) including > 90 % reductions in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans , Campylobacter rectus , Eubacterium saburreum , Fusobacterium nucleatum , Porphyromonas gingivalis , Prevotella melaninogenica , Solobacterium moorei , and Tannerella forsythia . CONCLUSIONS Twice daily use of a triclosan/copolymer dentifrice may enhance dental implant maintenance by reducing dental plaque and GI PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to investigate plaque levels following sonic-powered and manual toothbrushing in subjects with dental implants . MATERIAL S AND METHODS This study included 36 male and 47 female partially edentulous patients ( age range 45 - 78 years , mean age 59.8 years ) that were r and omly assigned to one of two treatment groups : the sonic toothbrush group ( n = 42 ; Philips Sonicare FlexCare ® toothbrush ) or the manual toothbrush group ( n = 41 ; Oral-B P40 ® ) . Clinical , microbiological and immunological examinations were performed blinded at baseline and after 3 , 6 , 9 and 12 months . Microbiological analyses were performed by real-time polymerase chain reaction . Immunological analyses ( prostagl and in E2 ) were performed by chromatography-electrospray spectrometry . RESULTS The plaque index difference between baseline and 12 months at implants showed no significant difference between sonic or manual toothbrushing in a two-sided Mann-Whitney test ( W = 773.5 , P = 0.426 , 95 % CI -0.64 to 0.20 ) . At the end of the study , there were no significant changes in plaque index , bleeding on probing , gingival index , pocket probing depth , gingival recession , clinical attachment level or the microbiological and immunological outcomes at implants or teeth in either group . CONCLUSIONS This study uncovered no significant difference between sonic and manual toothbrushing for plaque reduction at implants and teeth . Both toothbrushes maintain healthy peri-implant soft tissue PURPOSE This double-blind r and omized controlled trial assessed the effect of subgingival ozone ( O3 , gaseous ozone , HealOzone MK II , KaVo ) and /or hydrogen peroxide ( H2O2 ) on the development of peri-implant mucositis . MATERIAL S AND METHODS Twenty subjects ( mean age , 60 ± 7.7 years ) with 80 implants ( 4 implants each ) were recruited . First , a 2-week pretrial phase took place to achieve healthy gingiva . Subsequently , partial gum shields were constructed for the experimental area ( around the 4 implants ) ; subjects were asked to refrain from brushing in that area by wearing the gum shield . The following treatments were r and omly applied ( for 60 seconds ) to implant sites on days 0 , 7 , and 14 : ( 1 ) air ( O2 ) and saline ( 0.9 % NaCl ) ( control group ) , ( 2 ) O2 and H2O2 ( 3 % ) , ( 3 ) O3 and saline , and ( 4 ) O3 and H2O2  . Plaque , gingival , and bleeding indices were recorded on days 0 , 7 , 14 , and 21 . RESULTS Significant differences were seen among the treatments ( P < .01 ) in plaque ( F = 16.68 ) , modified gingival ( F = 7.86 ) , and bleeding ( F = 18.42 ) indices . O3 + saline and O3 + H2O2  produced optimum gingival health scores and were equally effective and the most effective in controlling bleeding ( mean score = 0.05 ) , while O2 + saline was the least effective ( mean score = 0.56 ) . CONCLUSION Ozone showed great potential for management of peri-implant mucositis OBJECTIVE The aim of this prospect i ve study was to assess the outcomes of an implant maintenance protocol for implants supporting a full-arch rehabilitation . MATERIAL S AND METHODS Sixty-one patients ( 28 women and 33 men ) treated with immediately loaded full-arch rehabilitation , both m and ibular and maxillary , supported by a combination of two tilted and two axial implants , were included in the study . Patients were scheduled for follow-up visits every 6 months for + 2 years , then yearly up to 4 years . Each patient received professional oral hygiene treatment and detailed oral hygiene instructions . During each visit , modified plaque index , bleeding index and probing depth were assessed . The presence of peri-implant tissue inflammation was also evaluated . RESULTS Mean observation time , considering both m and ible and maxilla , was 18.3 months ranging from 6 months to 5 years . Both plaque and bleeding indexes frequency decreased over time . Probing depth was stable ( 2.46 ± 0.5 mm at 4 years ) . Only three implants were lost due to peri-implantitis ( 1.4 % at 12 months ) , whereas the incidence of peri-implant
