Official title Efficacy of Photodynamic Therapy in the Non-Surgical Treatment of Peri-Implantitis
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07191522
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Peri-implantitis is a growing public health problem that can lead to several complications and sequelae, with a serious impact on the health and quality of life of patients and a high cost for healthcare systems. Bacterial plaque that accumulates around dental implants leads to peri-implant tissue inflammation that ultimately can result in the loss of the implant, significant bone destruction and infection that can reach other regions.
