Reosseointegration after the surgical treatment of induced peri-implantitis: systematic review on current evidence and translation from the animal to the human model
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to review the histologic evidence of reosseointegration and related influencing factors in experimental induced peri-implantitis. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: An electronic search was performed on Medline for animal studies that included a histometric evaluation of the amount of regenerated bone in contact with an implant surface. Questions raised in the study focused on the role of implant surfaces, bone regeneration and decontamination treatments in achieving reosseointegration.
