PERIIMPLANTITIS
Clarity on the Concepts
PERIIMPLANTITIS IS NOT PERIODONTITIS
*Consensus report of 7th European Workshop on Periodontology, 2011
It was always
assumed that’s that
the common
etiology for peri-
implant disease is
the presence of a
bacterial biofilm
and excessive
occlusal load*

Peri-implant mucositis appears to be reversible
Peri-implant mucositis may be present for extensive periods of time without
progression to peri-Implantitis
Optimal biofilm control may take longer than 3 weeks
PERIIMPLANT MUCOSITIS IS NOT A DISEASE
Inflammatory connective tissue (ICT) infiltrate of the peri-
implant mucosa in the microgap*
This ICT zone indicates a response of the immune system to
microorganisms and in generally considered as protective**
If the microgap is located more coronally, ie, further from the
alveolar crest, then we should expect less bone loss because of
the greater distance between the bacteria and the alveolar
Crest***

The ICT is never in contact with the bone but was
separated from it by an approximately 1-mm-wide layer of
healthy connective tissue*
This should be considered as a sort of barrier or protective
seal capable of preserving bone complementing the
biologic width
IF IT IS PROTECTIVE, WHY IS IT A DISEASE?

Early marginal bone loss (MBL) is a non-infective remodeling
occurring within the first year after implant placement
The estimate for the mean MBL was 0.5 mm within the first year
Implants that lose more than 0.5 mm of marginal bone 6-months
after loading are at great risk of not being radiographically
successful anymore.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 a person falsely claiming to have a special knowledge or skil a person who claims to have a supernatural ability to perceive events in the future or beyond normal sensory contact.
  • #6 Risk factors for periimplant diseases are very similar to periodontitis risk factors Common etiology for peri-implant disease is the presence of a bacterial biofilm and excessive occlusal load*
  • #9 Most dental implants have a 2-stage design in which (1) the implant is placed and the surrounding tissues are allowed to heal, and then (2) the abutment is placed and the restoration is completed. To prevent the unsightly metal ring that occurs with supragingival placement of the IAJ, most implants involve subgingival placement. The implant and the abutment cannot be accurately matched because of the precision limit during production . This subgingival placement makes the IAJ inaccessible for routine hygiene care and raises legitimate concerns about bacterial colonization within the IAJ micro-gap. In vitro studies show that biofilm in sliding contact surfaces could act like a lubricant, resulting in a friction behavior and reducing the mechanical integrity of the joint vs COLD WELDING Around implant-abutment connections, a lower pH value of 3–4 can induce corrosion at the contacting surfaces. Galvanic corrosion is the most common type of corrosion in dental implants. The study of the simultaneous degradation by wear and corrosion that occurs at the sliding contacts is known as tribocorrosion 
  • #10 The internal cavity of implant is similar to a reservoir (Nayak et al., 2014; Orsini et al., 2000; Proff et al., 2006). When the abutment is removed and replaced, bacteria can enter the implant internal cavity, where they reside and proliferate. The bacteria with their toxic by-products and small nutritious molecules can freely penetrate into the implant internal cavity or reverse through the IAI microgap. The destruction of the IAI micromotion is mainly displayed in two aspects. First, micromotion interferes the attachment of soft tissue around the implant neck and disrupts the stability of soft tissue that has completed integration (Passos, Gressler May, Faria, Ozcan, & Bottino, 2013). Second, micromotion causes a micropumping effect (Ericsson, et al., 1995), which intensifies the leakage of bacteria and their toxic by-products and accelerates the blood, saliva, and proteoglycans (including the extracellular matrix and mucus layer) into the internal cavity of implant (Baixe, Tenenbaum, & Etienne, 2016). Mechanical damages of microgap and micromotion include fretting wear, adhesive wear, and screw loosening (Jorn, Kohorst, Besdo, Borchers, & Stiesch, 2016; Sakamoto et al., 2016). Fretting wear refers to microfracture and chipping between the IAI, whereas adhesive wear is defined as the plastic deformation in the IAI (
  • #12 The host response to biofilms does not differ substantially at teeth or implants. The most obvious sign clinically is the development of an inflammatory lesion as a result of the bacterial challenge. Gingivitis at teeth or peri-implant mucositis at implants are precursors for more detrimental lesions, and hence have to be diagnosed properly and prevented by applying anti-infective therapy. Non-surgical interventions are usually sufficient for the treatment of both gingivitis and mucositis.
