WS2024 - Non-surgical Treatment of Peri-implantitis – Where Are the Limits?

Antonio Linares González

ITI World Symposium 2024 lecture by Antonio Linares González - part of the "Management of Peri-Implantitis" session.

Peri-implant diseases are increasing in number. It is estimated that between 10-20% of implants can present peri-implantitis. However, there is little evidence available to treat this disease in a predictable way. It is essential to understand how this pathology occurs, its pathogenesis in order to apply more effective treatments. Peri-implantitis lesions are more aggressive lesions than periodontitis, and therefore to some extent ask for different management. A non-surgical treatment protocol based on pathogenesis will be shown with results up to 15 years of follow-up, plus the latest research done by the speaker's research group. Moreover, this protocol may be applied in extreme cases, where “a priori” implant may present a “hopeless” prognosis. Also, peri-implantitis may affect systemic health, and this non-surgical protocol may improve systemic inflammation. 

At the end of this lecture you should be able to...

  • identify the suitable cases for non-surgical treatment of peri-implantitis
  • explain the steps involved in non-surgical treatment of peri-implantitis
  • assess how predictable the treatment will be based on the various factors
