Outline of Final Research Achievements

In recent years, according to the increase of dental implantations, peri-implantitis (that is infectious disease by the oral bacteria such as periodontal bacteria) is increasing rapidly. Peri-implantitis is one of the major factors that influence the prognosis of dental implant. Therefore, it is necessary that effective infection control of oral cavity with dental implant based on the bacteriological evaluation. This study was performed to evaluate the clinical usefulness of Periodontal bacteria-related examinations to prognostic factor of peri-implantitis.
In conclusion, periodontal bacteria-related examinations using blood and saliva maybe useful as prognostic factors of peri-implantitis.
