Surgery for gum and bone infections around dental implants
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a surgical treatment for peri-implantitis, which is a gum infection around a dental implant that causes bone loss. It aims to help people who need this procedure and can commit to follow-up visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have an implant with a screw-retained crown that is infected (gums bleed or pus when probed, deep pockets, and bone loss).
- Your implant crown is attached with a screw, not dental cement.
- You are willing and able to attend all follow-up appointments.
- You have not had surgery before for this same implant infection.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether adding a soft-tissue gum graft procedure can improve healing and reduce inflammation in moderate to severe peri-implantitis (inflammation and tissue damage around a dental implant). It may help patients by targeting both the gum tissue and the area around the implant that is bleeding or has deep pockets.
This trial studies signs of inflammation and tissue change around dental implants (especially in people with peri-implantitis) compared with people getting implants in healthier gum/bone areas. It may help doctors understand what markers to look for to better monitor or treat implant problems.
This study tests a new regenerative treatment for gum infections around dental implants (peri-implantitis). It may help people whose implants are otherwise healthy and positioned correctly, and who have good overall health.
This study tests how often a type of infection (called suppuration) occurs after surgery for severe gum disease around dental implants. It may help doctors understand the best way to treat this condition.
This study tests how to treat peri-implantitis—an infection around dental implants—using surgery, then tracks how well your implants heal and stay healthy over time. The research may help improve treatment for people with failing implants.
This trial studies people with advanced gum disease (periodontitis) or gum inflammation around dental implants (peri-implantitis), and compares them with people who have healthy gums. The goal is to understand inflammation and how it relates to these dental conditions.
