Novel Methods For Debridement Of Dental Implant Surfaces Contaminated By A Dental Biofilm

Funding Amount

Summary
Dental implants are becoming more commonly used to replace missing teeth. This process occurs by the bone fusing to the implant. However over time, bone loss and inflammation around a dental implant can occur. This response can occur after some years and can lead to eventual loss of the implant. The major contributing factors are patient susceptibility and the formation of plaque on the surface of the implant. The aims of this PhD are to understand how plaque grows on the implant surface and how ....Dental implants are becoming more commonly used to replace missing teeth.
