interleukin-1β (il-1β) is one of the most important cytokines which seems to have an important role in the inflammatory process in gingival and peri-implant tissues. the aim of this split-mouth study was to investigate the relationship between the concentration of il-1β in gingival crevicular fluid (gcf) and peri-implant crevicular fluid (picf) and clinical parameters such as plaque index (pi),...

o bjective : increased levels of oxidative stress markers in periodontitis have been reported by recent studies. malondialdehyde (mda) and superoxide dismutase (sod) are both in- creased during oxidative stress. the aim of this study was to detect and measure the level of oxidative stress markers in peri-implant crevicular fluid (picf). their correlation with peri-implant clinical parameters wa...

background: the lori-bakhtiari sheep breed is one of the most common native breed in the south-western parts of iran. the peri-parturition period (2 weeks before to, 2 weeks after parturition), is generally of critical importance regarding the health, production and profitability of the ewes. objectives: this study was carried out to compare the serum concentrations of glucose, non-esterified f...

A new field of biomédical science, known as tissue engineering, applies the principles of biology and engineering to the development of functional substitutes for tissues and organs. Little is known about the influence of Keratinised Mucosa dimension around implants on the soft and hard tissue health The purpose of this case report is to understand the importance of healthy tissue around the im...

Dental implants are commonly used to replace missing teeth. However, the dysbiotic polymicrobial communities of peri-implant sites are responsible for peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. In this study, we analyzed the microbial characteristics of oral plaque from peri-implant pockets or sulci of healthy implants (n = 10), peri-implant mucositis (n = 8) an...

Definitions of peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis vary in the literature, and no clear criteria have been established for the diagnosis and treatment of such disorders. This study proposes a classification for peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis based on the severity of the disease, using a combination of peri-implant clinical and radiological parameters to classify severity in...

providing an esthetic restoration in the anterior region of the mouth has been the basis of peri-implant esthetics. to achieve optimal esthetics, in implant supported restorations, various patient and tooth related factors have to be taken into consideration. peri-implant plastic surgery has been adopted to improve the soft tissue and hard tissue profi les, during and after implant placement. t...
