Peri-implant disease following successful integration of an endosseous implant is
\nthe result of an imbalance between bacterial load and host defense, which may
\naffect not only the peri-implant mucosa but also involve the supporting bone.<\/p>\n
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a dental water jet
\n(Silonit\u00ae) with adjunct Chlorhexidine gel as a non-surgical treatment for periimplantitis
\nlesions.<\/p>\n
Methods: A prospective interventional cohort study was conducted. Forty
\nconsecutive patients presenting with peri-implantitis were recruited and
\nrandomly assigned into two treatment groups. Both groups underwent initial
\nperiodontal treatment including recall appointment and oral hygiene instructions.
\nThe study group received a water jet device (Silonit\u00ae) for home use twice a day
\nwith water supplemented by CHX while the control group performed the
\nrecommended oral hygiene measures with no water jet usage. Three months
\nfollowing baseline visit, patients were re-evaluated clinically and radiographically.<\/p>\n
Results: Overall 39 patients completed the study were evaluated. Three months
\nfollowing baseline visit the test group exhibited better results with regards to the
\naverage probing depth reduction (0.75 vs. 0.27mm; p=0.029) as well reduction in
\nthe deepest pocket (1.7 vs. 1.2mm; p=0.26) and reduction in sites presenting with
\nbleeding on probing (2.26 vs. 0.45 sites; p=0.011). No significant change in bone
\nlevel was observed in three months (mean bone gain was 0.18 mm)<\/p>\n
Conclusions: Water Jet (Silonit\u00ae) with adjunct Chlorhexidine gel might serve as a
\nnon-surgical treatment option for peri-implantitis lesions. Further, larger-cohort
\nstudies are warranted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
