Abstract:AimTo investigate the influence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in a murine model of peri‐implantitis (PI).Materials and MethodsTwenty‐seven 4‐week‐old C57BL/6J male mice had their first and second maxillary left molars extracted. Eight weeks later, one machined implant was placed in each mouse. Four weeks after osseointegration, the mice were divided into three groups: (a) control (C), (b) PI and (c) DM + PI. DM was induced by streptozotocin (STZ) administration. After DM induction, PI was induced using ligatures f… Show more
