Retrograde Peri - Implantitis: A Clinical Case Report
Abstract: Retrograde peri - implantitis describes a lesion that is periapical to an osseointegrated implant and is not very common, but threatens seriously the implant survival. It is usually diagnosed symptomatically with pain, tenderness, swelling, and the presence of the fistulous tract. If the fixture is stable despite bone loss in the periapical region, it is suggested that surgical debridement be carried out with the use of a surface antiseptic like chlorhexidine. The current article briefly reviews the literature on this subject and presents a case report of retrograde peri - implantitis.
