Laser therapy with non-surgical treatment for implant infection
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding low-level laser therapy to standard non-surgical cleaning helps treat peri-implantitis, an infection around dental implants. It may help reduce pocket depth and stop further bone loss.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be willing to take part in the study.
- You need at least one dental implant with a pocket depth of 6 mm or more and bone loss of at least 3 mm.
- You must be between 18 and 65 years old.
- You should be able to understand and follow oral hygiene instructions.
- You cannot have certain health conditions (like diabetes, cancer, HIV/AIDS, or autoimmune diseases).
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding, or have had periodontal treatment or used certain medications in the last 6 months.

This trial compares two ways to treat gum disease around dental implants (peri-implantitis) and natural teeth (periodontitis), using either a non-surgical approach or a non-surgical approach plus an antibiotic gel. It aims to see which method works better to reduce inflammation and improve oral health.
This study tests whether material from extracted teeth, combined with low-level laser treatment, can help bone heal better before dental implants are placed. The goal is to improve implant success and reduce bone loss after tooth removal.
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 study tests a special light-activated treatment (antibacterial photodynamic therapy) to fight infection around dental implants. It may be an option for people with moderate to severe implant-related gum disease who are not smokers and do not have diabetes.
This trial tests whether a special laser treatment can help your gums heal better after a tooth is removed and the socket is prepared for a future dental implant. If you're having a tooth pulled and bone preservation, this laser might speed up healing and reduce pain.
This study compares two non-surgical procedures to treat gum disease around dental implants. It aims to find which method works better to reduce infection and improve gum health, without needing surgery.
