The number of osseointegrated dental implants is increasing. Healthy peri-implant soft and hard tissues are required for the stability and survival of dental implants. In this paper we review factors that lead to peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis, and review treatment.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether these guidelines are being observed both in the referral and selection of patients.
