Plain English summary of protocol
Background and study aims:
For many years, dental implants prove to be a good replacement when one or more teeth are missing. Although there is a high success rate of implants, problems with inflammation around implants are frequently reported. When this inflammatory process is limited to the soft tissues such as the gums around the implant, one speaks of peri-implant mucositis. Peri-implantitis is a condition where inflammation affects both the soft tissues such as the gums around the implant and the hard tissues such as the bones surrounding the implant, therefore bone loss can be a result. Five to ten years after an implant is placed, one out of five patients suffer from peri-implantitis. Currently, there is not enough evidence or studies for the recommendation of treatments or prevention measures for peri-implantitis.
Choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid was previously found to stimulate the formation of bone collagen in patients with osteopenia and to improve signs of cartilage degradation in knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid in peri-implantitis patients.
Who can participate?
Adults between the ages of 18 and 75 years old, with documented peri-implantitis.
What does the study involve?
Patients are randomly allocated to either receive choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid or an identical dummy pill. All patients will be instructed to take 2 capsules daily for 12 months. At the start of the study, a surgical flap will be made at all peri-implantitis sites to disinfect the area of inflammation thoroughly. Assessments will be done on inclusion to the study, and after 6 and 12 months of treatment. These will involve assessment of the implant using a probe, blood samples, a CT scan, and a questionnaire on the impact on wellbeing.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
The active compound, choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid, may support soft tissue healing and prevent bone loss at the peri-implantitis affected implant sites. Considering the available information about choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid, there are no foreseeable risks to human health when used as instructed.

| Scientific title | A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study to assess the effect of choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid on peri-implantitis |
| Study objectives | The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the oral intake of choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid over a 12 month period on the clinical symptoms of peri-implantitis and associated bone loss. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Approved 04/05/2017, Çukurova University Ethics Committee (Balcali, Adana, 01330, Turkey; +90(0)322 338 67 22; neclaetikkurul@gmail.com), ref: 65/4 |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Peri-implantitis |
| Intervention | Subjects are randomized to either the placebo or active treatment group (choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid) using block randomization in a ratio of 1:1. All subjects will be instructed to take daily for 12 months, 2 capsules orally of either placebo (520 mg microcrystalline cellulose beadlets), or the active ingredient (520 mg beadlets containing 5 mg of silicon and 100 mg of choline in the form of choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid). The trial starts with a screening visit and a wash-out period during which the use of peri-implantitis treatment is not permitted. At the start of the study (baseline) a surgical flap will be made at all peri-implantitis sites to disinfect thoroughly with EDTA. Assessments will be done respectively at inclusion (baseline), and after 6 and 12 months of treatment. |
| Intervention type | Supplement |
| Primary outcome measure | The probing pocket depth (PPD) is measured using a calibrated probe at 6 peri-implantitis sites at baseline and 12 months |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. The probing pocket depth (PPD) is measured using a calibrated probe at 6 peri-implantitis sites at baseline and 6 months 2. Bleeding on probing (BOP) is measured using a calibrated probe at 6 peri-implantitis sites at baseline, 6 and 12 months 3. Gingival recession (REC) is measured using a calibrated probe at 6 peri-implantitis sites at baseline, 6 and 12 months 4. Bone gain is measured with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) at baseline, 6 and 12 months 5. Biomarkers of bone formation and bone resorption are measured from samples taken at baseline, 6 and 12 months 6. Serum markers of inflammation (hs-CRP) are measured from serum samples taken at baseline, 6 and 12 months 7. Patient assessment of the impact of oral health measured using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-14 questionnaire at baseline, 6 and 12 months |
