Peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis
Mucositis is reversible inflammation of the gum around an implant, caused by plaque. Left untreated it can progress to peri-implantitis, where the bone supporting the implant is lost. The first is common and easily treated; the second is serious.
Prevention
Daily cleaning around the implant collar with floss or interdental brushes, hygiene visits at the interval set for you, and not smoking. Implants placed in healthy gums with a good emergence profile are easier to keep clean.
Treatment
Professional cleaning and, where needed, local treatment of the pocket. Early detection at routine reviews is why the six-monthly visit is not optional for implant patients.
