Summary

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate in a cohort of patients with peri-implant mucositis: (a) the efficacy of professional mechanical debridement therapy assisted using Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy on the reduction of periodontal indexes (b) the reduction of total oxidative salivary stress. Material and Methods Forty subjects with a diagnosis of peri-implant mucositis were enrolled in this study and randomly assigned to the study group (mechanical debridement therapy assisted using Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy) or control group (mechanical debridement therapy alone). The study duration was 6 months. Data on plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BoP), probing pocket depth (PPD) and pain relief on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were recorded at T0, T1 (14 days), T2 (1 month) and T3 (6 months). Group differences were assessed using Student's t-test and Pearson's Chi-squared test of homogeneity

Conditions

• Mucositis Oral
• Dental Implant Failed

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Photobiomodulation with Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy	The Bioptron® Device provides polarized visible polychromatic noncoherent light with 90 W; light wavelength = 480-3400 nm; degree of polarization = 95%; specific power = 40 mW/cm2; energy density = 2.4 J/cm2. The duration of each treatment session was 10 min. Bioptron light was positioned 10 cm from the oral mucosa and a mouth opener was positioned for the entire duration of the session. Two weekly sessions during the first 4 weeks of treatment were applied.
