ABSTRACT
This report aims to present a treatment of retrograde peri-implantitis originating from apical periodontitis of an adjacent tooth in an 84-year-old male. Apical periodontitis of the maxillary left central incisor (#9) extended to the apex of the maxillary left lateral incisor implant (#10), which had been functioning for 16 years. Root canal treatment for #9 was performed, followed by root end surgery to treat the apical periodontitis, which showed a periapical radiolucency measured 1 cm in its greatest dimension. After the root end filling was placed, neither bone substitute materials nor barrier membranes were used to fill and cover the bony defect area. A 2-year postoperative radiograph confirmed the osseous healing around the apices of #9 and #10.
