Microbiological and functional traits of peri-implant mucositis and correlation with disease severity
9 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Osseointegrated dental implants replace missing teeth and create an artificial surface for biofilms of complex microbial communities to grow. These biofilms on implants and dental surfaces can trigger infection and inflammation in the surrounding tissue. This study investigated the microbial characteristics of peri-implant mucositis (PM) and explored the correlation between microbial ecological...
