Abstract
Introduction:With the increased application of the implants for the restoration of the lost teeth, the peri-implantitis cases are seen on a rise. Hence, we conducted a study retrospectively to evaluate, among the peri-implantitis cases, the success of the soft-tissue grafting.Material and Methods:We piloted a retrospective study among 50 subjects of both genders who underwent the soft-tissue grafting for the treatment of the peri-implantitis of a total of 69 implants. The clinical parameters noted were at the baseline and at various years of follow-ups. The data of the clinical parameters were noted, and the data thus noted were compared deliberating P < 0.05 as significant.Results:Thin soft-tissue biotype was noted among all the subjects, with the increased width of the keratinized mucosa. Significant lowering of the probing depth, bleeding on probing, and the mobility of the tissue were noted.Conclusions:We can conclude that soft-tissue grafting Is a benificial method for the peri-implantitis treatment.
