The International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants

AI-generated Abstract

This study investigates the prevalence and pattern of bone loss in peri-implantitis, highlighting the correlation with various patient and implant characteristics. A retrospective chart review examined patients with dental implants placed between 2010 and 2016, assessing factors like age, sex, diabetes presence, smoking habits, implant site, diameter, and graft usage. Results indicate significant relationships between certain implant characteristics (like adjacent implants and grafted sites) and the patterns of bone loss, unveiling critical insights for future clinical practices.
