Electrolytic Surface Decontamination in the Surgical Treatment of Peri-implantitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Electrolytic Surface Decontamination: Electrolytic implant surface decontamination performed using the GalvoSurge system as an adjunct to conventional surgical treatment. The procedure is intended to remove biofilm and contaminants from the implant surface through an electrolytic cleaning process.

Conventional Surgical Treatment: Conventional surgical treatment of peri-implantitis consisting of flap elevation, mechanical implant surface decontamination using a titanium brush, and hydrogen peroxide application according to the study protocol.

Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adjunctive electrolytic surface decontamination can improve the outcomes of surgical treatment of peri-implantitis. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does electrolytic surface decontamination reduce probing pocket depth more effectively than conventional surgical treatment alone?
* Does electrolytic surface decontamination improve bleeding on probing, suppuration, and radiographic bone levels?

Researchers will compare conventional surgical treatment plus electrolytic surface decontamination with conventional surgical treatment alone.

Participants will:

* Receive surgical treatment for peri-implantitis
* Be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups
* Attend follow-up visits for clinical and radiographic examinations
* Undergo assessment of probing pocket depth, bleeding on probing, suppuration, and bone level changes during follow-up

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Change in Probing Pocket Depth (PPD) — 24 Months
  Change in peri-implant probing pocket depth (PPD) measured in millimeters at treated implant sites. The difference between baseline and 24-month follow-up measurements will be evaluated.
