Plain English Summary
Background and study aims
Periimplantitis is a pathological condition that occurs in the tissues surrounding dental implants. It is characterized by inflammation of the peri-implant connective tissue and loss of progressive support bone. In a recent systematic review, a 22% prevalence of peri-implantitis has been described. If the literature is analyzed, it can be verified how different percentages of prevalence are reported due to the different definition of this pathological condition depending on the study analyzed, being from 1% to 47%. In addition, it has been suggested that this bone loss is time-dependent and that the follow-up time of the different studies can also affect the percentage of prevalence described. The potential benefit of using bone substitutes / biological agents in reconstructive procedures for the treatment of periimplantitis remains undefined for the time being due to the existence of few clinical studies with very heterogeneous designs and different follow-up times. Concerning the material that should be used during the reconstructive procedure, the existing literature is heterogeneous. Several studies evaluate the effectiveness of material without comparing with any control group, while others either compare the use of a material with the performance of only mechanical debridement or with the use of a different material. For this reason, it is difficult to draw solid conclusions about the ideal material.
Who can participate?
1. Age ≥ 18 years
2. Peri-implant bone defect ≥ 3mm assessed radiographically
3. PPD ≥ 5mm combined with bleeding on probing or supuration
4. Intra-surgically, bone defect must have at least a intraosseous component of 3mm and a width of no more than 4mm
5. implants ≥ 1 year in function
What does the study involve?
The test group will be treated with xenograft cover with a resorbable collagen membrane and the control group will be treated with xenograft only.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
The benefit is the reconstruction of the peri-implant bone previously lost and arrest the peri-implant pathology.
The risk is not being able to stop the disease.

1. Periocentrum Bilbao. Bilbao. 48008. Spain.
2. Periodontology postgraduate program at the University of Basque Country Lejona, 48940 Spain.

Scientific title
Reconstructive surgical therapy of peri-implantitis-related bone defects: Application of a bovine-derived bone xenograft with or without a resorbable collagen membrane. Multicenter controlled randomized clinical trial
Acronym
RPT
Study hypothesis
The use of a resorbable membrane in combination with a xenograft of bovine origin offers an additional benefit in the treatment of peri-implant bone defects compared to the use of the xenograft alone.

Condition
Intraosseous peri-implant defects
Intervention
The test group will be treated with xenograft cover with a resorbable collagen membrane.
Control group will be treated with xenograft only.
The intervention will we realized in a single session and the follow-up will be 12 months after the surgical procedure. Randomization will be carried out by means of 5 blocks by a sequence generated by the computer.
Intervention type
Procedure/Surgery
Primary outcome measure
Probing depth (PS) is measured in 6 locations per implant. It consists of probing from the margin of the peri-implant mucosa to the most apical part of the peri-implant defect at baseline, at 6 months and at 12 months.
Secondary outcome measures
1. Filling of the radiographic defect is measured using intraoral radiographs of the implant at baseline, 6 months and 12 months. The defect that is appreciated in the initial radiography with the filling in the following ones will be compared.
2. Mucosal recession is measured at one vestibular point of each implant. Measured from the apical margin of the implant-supported restoration to the margin of the peri-implant mucosa at baseline, at 6 months and at 12 months.
3. Bleeding on probing is measured in 6 locations per implant in basal at 6 months and 12 months.
4. Plaque control is measured in 6 locations per implant in basal at 6 months and 12 months.
5. Presence of complications is measured using membrane exposure at healing period. It will be checked if there is primary closure of the lesion or if there is membrane exposure.
6. Intervention time. Is measured by a chronometer since the first incision until the last suture.
7. Patient satisfaction and morbidity are measured using a visual analogic scale at 2 weeks, 6 months and 12 months to know the postoperative morbidity and perception and satisfaction with the procedure.
8. Volumetric changes are measured using an intraoral scanner and a digital computer program that superimposes an initial scanner with the posterior ones to see the volumetric changes at baseline, at 6 months and 12 months.
