Awareness of the important role that peri-implant tissue health plays in implant survival is growing, in part because clinical studies that assess long-term results of implant treatment show that peri-implantitis is no longer a rare complication. This book positions peri-implantology as an emerging discipline and provides a comprehensive discourse on the etiology, clinical features, and diagnosis of peri-implantitis and implant mucositis. Based on more than a decade of dedicated research and clinical focus on peri-implantology, this book presents predictable surgical and nonsurgical protocols that go beyond the current treatment guidelines that were largely adapted from therapies for periodontal disease. The authors summarize the current research on peri-implantitis and outline the steps for effective early diagnosis. By focusing on identifying the multiple risk factors, the authors provide an effective paradigm for preventing peri-implant infection in everyday practice. An essential guide for all practitioners practicing implant dentistry.

Lang Die Gesundheit der periimplantären Gewebe als entscheidender Faktor für das Implantatüberleben wird uns heute mehr und mehr bewusst. Klinische Studien zu den Langzeitresultaten der Implantattherapie belegen, dass Periimplantitis nicht länger als seltene Komplikation betrachtet werden kann. Dieses Buch verortet die Periimplantologie als neue Disziplin und wertet die aktuelle Forschungslage zur Periimplantitis aus. Es erläutert die Ätiologie, die klinisch[...]

Berglundh, Tord/Jepsen, Søren/S... Cell-to-Cell Communication: Peri-implantitis and its Prevention Cell-to-Cell Communication, Volume 6 1st Edition 2019 Artikelnr.: 5710 98.00 € Berglundh, Tord / Jepsen, Søren / Stadlinger, Bernd / Terheyden, Hendrik Cell-to-Cell Communication: Peri-implantitis and its Prevention Just like with natural teeth, if the plaque biofilm is allowed to accumulate on implants, peri-implant mucositis occurs, which can subsequently develop into peri-implantitis, characterized by peri-implant bone destruction and even implant loss. This new 3D movie visualizes the intercellular processes that are involved as peri-implant tissue transitions from health to mucositis, from mucositis to peri-implantitis, and finally back to health. This sophisticated HD animation successfully conveys th[...]
