Evaluation of the Loss of Surface Roughness Following the Use of Four Different Instruments for Mechanical Debridement of Dental Implants: An In-vitro Pilot Study [PDF]
Journal of Bio- and Tribo-CorrosionAbstractTo compare the dental implant surface properties such as mean surface roughness, roughness depth, and the surface loss produced by different prophylactic instrument types. Twenty-four surfaces of twelve dental implants were treated using titanium curettes, titanium-coated curettes, an air abrasion unit, and titanium brushes. The dental implants

In-vitro assessment of dental biofilm and calculus formation and debridement by hand and ultrasonic instrumentation [PDF]
Abstract The removal of subgingival biofilm and calculus is vital in the successful treatment of periodontitis, which can primarily be achieved using hand and/or ultrasonic scalers. The present study aimed to compare hand instrumentation with ultrasonic instrumentation in a biofilm-calculus model.A multi-species mixture consisting of 11

Novel methods for debridement of dental implant surfaces contaminated by biofilm [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Biofilm induced implant diseases have been reported to occur between 19-65% of all implants placed worldwide. Despite the high prevalence of these diseases, currently there is not a universally accepted and reliable treatment modality. Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory reaction which can cause bleeding, suppuration and the pathological ...

Colloids and Surfaces B: BiointerfacesPoor peri-implant health leads to biofilm accumulation, peri-implantitis, and bone loss. Chemical debridement may help maintain peri-implant health, but its effects on peri-implant cells remain unclear.Five cleaning agents-hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), Poloxamer, H2O2 +Poloxamer, Perisolv, and Paroex-were applied on titanium (Ti) surfaces.

Efficacy of Diode Lasers in Treatment of Peri-Implantitis: A Prospective Study
Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied SciencesBackground: Peri-implantitis is a significant challenge in implant dentistry, characterized by inflammation and progressive bone loss around dental implants. Traditional nonsurgical treatments have shown limited efficacy.

, 2015 Since the advent of osseointegration some 50-years ago, oral implants have been placed in an alveolar bone bed of presumed sterility (intraradicular infection theory). Bacteria were excluded from the pathogenesis of dental implant failure. Clinical audit of fixture failure provided an association with previous tooth-borne infection and soft bone ...
