Soreness

Risk Factors
Risk Factors of PIM are categorised into General and Local Risk Factors
General Risk Factors

Smoking
Radiation Therapy
Poorly controlled Diabetes Mellitus (HbA1c >10.1)Local Risk Factors

Oral Hygiene
Poor compliance / access to regular supportive implant therapy
Design of Implant-supported prostheses affecting accessibility for plaque removal
Sub-mucosal restorations
Dimension of Keratinized Peri-implant mucosa
Excess CementPossible Risk Factors:
Some other possible risk factors may include the location the implant is placed, type of implant placed and the age of the subject, as it was found that these factors had significant influences on bleeding on probing (BOP).Although it is uncertain whether increased abutment roughness will cause an increase in plaque accumulation and hence increase the risk of peri-implant mucositis, a 12-month comparative analysis in humans found that “a further reduction of the surface roughness, below a certain "threshold R(a)" (0.2 microns), has no major impact on the supra‐ and subgingival microbial composition.”Implants and abutments made of zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) were claimed to be more bio-compatible compared to those made of titanium but clinical studies show that there were slightly higher BOP scores or no significant difference in BOP scores around ZrO2 compared to titanium abutments. Diagnosis
In order to diagnose peri-implant mucositis, it is essential to investigate probing parameters and complete a radiographic assessment. Correct diagnosis of peri-implant diseases is essential to allow appropriate management of the condition present.
