The effect of surgical regenerative treatment for peri-implantitis: a systematic review

ConclusionAll studies included showed an improvement in clinical conditions after surgical regenerative treatment for peri-implantitis. However, no study has shown any statistical significance in its approach. There is a lack of scientific evidence in literature regarding which type of bone substitute has superiority in the treatment of peri-implantitis, as well as the role of barrier membranes, methods for detoxification of implant surfaces and antimicrobial prescriptions. For these reasons further well-designed RCTs are recommended.
