No Implantology without Periodontology – NIWOP Optimal periodontal conditions for successful implantation Determining risks – providing periodontal treatment Periodontitis is a key risk factor for peri-implant inflammation. This means untreated periodontitis patients have an increased risk of peri-implant inflammation through to implant loss (10). The risk is also higher when patients who are initially treated are not included in a supportive periodontitis treatment/recall programme (11). Some things do belong together: just as Yin needs the Yang, implantology needs periodontology. W&H...

In order to avoid this, the correct implant position, sufficient distances from adjacent teeth and an ideal axial alignment should be taken into account during the planning phase. In order to ensure predictable and stable implant care, it is also necessary to prepare the implant bed using suitable methods and the right hardware. This...

Peri-implant aftercare Experts recommend treatment immediately after the initial occurrence of symptoms of inflammation to avoid periimplant bone loss from the start (23).

Treating periimplantitis Peri-implant bone loss can develop even if good preventative care is provided, for example if the patient’s oral hygiene is not sufficient. Most minimal defects should be treated in a non-surgical manner using peri-implant debridement (29). Mechanical...
