Summary
The present study represents an extension of the previously concluded randomized clinical trial "Laser-Assisted Regenerative Surgical Therapy for Peri-implantitis" (HUM00124386). The aim of the study is to compare the adjunctive effect of laser over mechanical debridement alone in the maintenance of peri-implant tissues after surgical treatment of peri-implantitis (gum disease around implants).
Detailed description
The same 24 subjects, previously treated with surgical regenerative treatment of peri-implantitis following the LARST protocol, will be invited to return for three follow-up visits. During the follow-up visits, clinical measurements, x-rays, and pictures of the inside of their mouth will be taken to evaluate the success of their peri-implantitis treatment. If needed, additional laser treatment of the dental implant may also be provided according to the same randomization of subjects in the original study. No placebo laser application will be provided.
