Oral Microbiota in Patients with Peri-Implant Disease: A Narrative Review

Peri-implant infections are the most common complications related to placement of dental implants. There many microbial similarities between peri-implantitis and periodontitis but due current laboratory techniques there just as differences. This review was performed assess changes in oral microbiota at sites with peri-implant disease, according state art. The presents a lower quality than periodontal microbiota, becoming increasingly complex it progresses from mucositis peri-implantitis. difference detected is primarily whole bacterial populations, rather specific taxa. use probiotics could support reduction pockets, association mechanical debridement, their mechanism action competitive inhibition for adhesion sites. represents qualitatively inferior quantitatively superior ecosystem some genera compared showing that progression healthy causes composition absence disease-causing bacteria. Transcriptomics provide useful information prevention, diagnosis, therapy pathology through knowledge virulence factors.
