What did the researchers investigate and find?
A narrative review of peri-implantitis treatment options, accompanied by three clinical case reports, described the use of a fully resorbable magnesium membrane combined with a bovine bone xenograft containing hyaluronate.
The three cases involved different clinical situations:
- First case: reconstruction of a bone defect without implant removal.
- Second case: bone reconstruction following implant removal.
- Third case: a minimally invasive shield technique without removing the implant or crown.
All three cases demonstrated favorable clinical outcomes following this treatment approach.
What does this mean for your clinical practice?
The combination of a resorbable magnesium membrane and a bovine xenograft containing hyaluronate represents a promising approach to peri-implantitis treatment, based on the cases presented.
However, these observations are based on only three clinical cases. Further studies involving larger patient groups and control groups are required to confirm these preliminary findings.
