Summary
The objective of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of PerioChip® (Chlorhexidine gluconate chip) in the treatment of patients with Peri-implantitis.
The hypothesis of the study is that PerioChip® in adjunct to mechanical subgingival debridement is more effective in the treatment of peri-implantitis when compared to the common method of mechanical subgingival debridement alone. The primary efficacy measure will be the reduction in probing pocket depth at 6 months as measured at sites of qualifying target implant.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
