Clinical Case Report

Peri-implantitis Modified by Submucosal Excess of Cement: Regenerative Peri-implantitis Therapy and Six-year Follow-up

Giovanni E. Salvi

A 30-year-old female patient was referred to the Department of Periodontology of the University of Bern, Switzerland, by a dentist in private practice. Tooth 45 had been congenitally missing and had been replaced with a titanium implant three years prior to the first visit at the Department of Periodontology. The tissue level implant had a diameter of 4.1 mm, a length of 12 mm, and a sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) surface (Straumann® Dental Implant System; Institut Straumann AG, Basel, Switzerland). The metal-ceramic crown on implant 45 had been cemented permanently. Implant 45 had been diagnosed with peri-implantitis by the referring dentist in the course of regular supportive care.

  • * General SAC assessment modifiers that are also part of the ERA. To avoid redundancy they are listed in this section even if no complete ERA has been made.

  • ** Not applicable to the ERA of immediate placement cases and replaced by "Socket Integrity" listed below under "Surgical SAC Classification". For all other placement types this value is a classification determinant and listed here even if no complete ERA has been made.
