Why it matters for dental

Periodontists and implant-placing practices now have a peer-reviewed, flapless submucosal-instrumentation protocol that may reduce peri-implantitis surgery costs and chair time while preserving crestal bone.

Key points

  • Published in Periodontology 2000 (EarlyView) as a contemporary evidence review and step-by-step clinical protocol.
  • Focuses on non-surgical, flapless submucosal mechanical instrumentation for peri-implantitis defects.
  • Provides an evidence-based alternative to traditional open-flap debridement for suitable implant cases.
  • Targets clinicians managing implant maintenance and peri-implant disease who seek to minimize patient morbidity and recovery time.
