Detailed description

A case-control study was performed following the STROBE statement (17) at the Oral Surgery Department, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (University of Valencia, Spain) from 1996 to 2016, in which patients with early peri-implantitis diagnosed were included (Figure 1). All patients were informed about the study design and procedures. Prior to participating, they were requested to sign an informed consent document. The study design was approved by the Ethical Committee of the University of Valencia (H1478255958653). Two groups were established: Test group (patients diagnosed with early apical peri-implantitis diagnosed) and Control group (patients whose implants had not developed any inflammatory/infectious process and were osseointegrated).
