Description
Summary:Renvert S, Lindahl C, Roos Jansåker A‐M, Persson R. Treatment of peri‐implantitis using Er:YAG laser or an air‐abrasive device: a randomized clinical trial. J Clin Periodontol 2011; 38: 65–73. doi: 10.1111/j.1600‐051X.2010.01646.x Background: Non‐surgical peri‐implantitis therapies appear to be ineffective. Limited data suggest that ER:YAG laser therapy improves clinical conditions. The present study aimed at comparing the treatment effects between air‐abrasive (AM) and Er:YAG laser (LM) mono‐therapy in cases with severe peri‐implantitis. Materials and methods: Twenty‐one subjects in each group were randomly assigned to one time intervention by an air‐abrasive device or an Er:YAG laser. Clinical data were collected before treatment and at 6 months. Data analysis was performed using repeat univariate analysis of variance controlling for subject factors. Results: No baseline subject characteristic differences were found. Bleeding on probing and suppuration decreased in both the groups (p
