Peri-implantitis is inflammation of the gum and bone around an implant; if not treated early it can lead to implant loss.

What is peri-implantitis?

Plaque accumulation and infection around an implant cause inflammation, with bleeding, redness and, in advanced cases, bone loss around the implant. It is the equivalent of gum disease around an implant.

Treatment approach

In the early stage, professional cleaning of the implant surface and gum treatment are applied. In advanced cases, surgical cleaning and, where needed, bone support are used to try to save the implant.

Peri-implantitis at TSHEALTH

The peri-implant condition is evaluated to build a plan focused on preserving the implant; treatment is carried out under Dr. Tuğçe Sümer Yılmaz.

Healing and follow-up

After treatment, meticulous oral care and regular follow-up are decisive for preserving the implant. Healing varies by area and the method used; the situation is re-evaluated when needed.

Prevention

Good oral hygiene and regular implant check-ups markedly reduce the risk of peri-implantitis. Managing risk factors such as smoking, uncontrolled diabetes and existing gum disease is also protective.
