There are multitude of treatment regimens for the peri-implant lesion, including anti-infective therapy, mechanical debridement, and surgical procedure. The laser model, the mechanical devise and the antibiotic regimens varied between studies as the different types of surgical therapies, ressective or regenerative approach. The outcomes following the treatment of peri-implantitis are highly variable and there are no data available to support specific treatment protocols in non-surgical therapy of peri-implantitis. The aim of this review is analyze the literature on non-surgical treatment of peri-implantitis and find the possible indications and the efficacy of this therapy. In peri-implantitis lesions non-surgical therapy was not found to be effective and the adjunctive use of local antiseptic had only limited effects on clinical and microbiological parameters. It is necessary to develop more randomized-controlled clinical studies evaluating treatment protocols of non-surgical therapy of peri-implantitis.

Keywords : Peri-implantitis; non-surgical treatment.
