ARDILA MEDINA, C.M. e GUZMAN ZULUAGA, I.C.. Efficacy of treatment options for periimplant mucositis. Avances en Periodoncia [online]. 2014, vol.26, n.3, pp.141-146. ISSN 2340-3209.
Numerous studies have shown that bacterial infection plays the most important role in the late failures of dental implants. A host parasite imbalance, at the soft tissue-implant interface, inducing a prolonged inflammatory reaction, will result in periimplant tissue breakdown and possible implant failure. During the early stages of inflammation, tissue damage occurs that requires considerable intervention by the clinician to avoid irreversible damage. As in periodontal diseases, various therapies have been proposed to reduce the number of pathogenic species and improve the clinical parameters of peri-implant mucositis. In this way, the basic therapy for the treatment of MPI includes mechanical treatment, rinsing with antiseptics, application of chemotherapeutic substances, local application of antibiotics, or the combination of the above. With little evidence available, it appears that mechanical therapy alone is effective in the treatment of MPI.
