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

  • Good general health
  • At least one implant in the oral cavity with clinical and radiographical signs of peri-implantitis. Including bone loss in combination with bleeding and/or suppuration on probing and a peri-implant Probing Depth (PD) of 5-8 mm.
  • The implants have been in function for more than 2 years.
  • Fixed prosthetic restoration of the implant.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Pregnancy.
  • Patient uses Chlorhexidine oral rinses/ mouthwashes on a regular basis.
  • Allergic reaction to Chlorhexidine.
  • Active Periodontitis which required definitive treatment.
  • Presence of orthodontic appliances, or any removable appliances, that impinges on the tissues being assessed.
  • Use of systemic antibiotic therapy and/or chronically use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • Uncontrolled diabetes, of any type.
