Peri-implantitis study for patients with gum disease around implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial studies a substance called fractalkine and its receptor in the gum fluid around dental implants affected by peri-implantitis. It aims to understand the role of these markers in inflammation, which may help improve diagnosis or treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have gum disease around a dental implant (peri-implantitis) with pocket depths of 4-6 mm and at least 2 mm bone loss on X-ray.
- You are between 40 and 60 years old.
- You do not smoke or drink alcohol.
- You have not used antibiotics in the last three months.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have at least 2 mm of firm, attached gum (keratinized gingiva) around the implant.

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 tests if a special light treatment (photodynamic therapy) can help treat infection and inflammation around dental implants without surgery. It may be an option for people with mild to moderate peri-implantitis who don't smoke and have healthy gums otherwise.
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.
This trial looks at specific proteins found in the gum tissue around dental implants. The goal is to understand how these proteins may be linked to inflammation in people with peri-implantitis, a condition that affects the gums and bone around implants.
This study looks at how gums react to plaque buildup around dental implants that were previously treated for infection. It may help understand if one treatment method leads to healthier gums.
This study tests a procedure (implantoplasty) to treat peri-implantitis, an infection/inflammation around dental implants. It may help improve the health of implants when there is exposed, changed implant surface.
