RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Peri-implantitis is a destructive inflammatory disease affecting both hard and soft tissues of the osseointegrated implant and causing bone loss and envelope surrounding the implant. The study aimed at evaluating the effect of Photodynamic therapy with Curcumin and Riboflavin on the level of decontamination of implant surface impregnated with Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A.a) biofilm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this experimental and laboratory study, 42 implants (4.3 mm in diameter and 8 mm in length) were infected with A.a. bacterial suspension. Then, the implants carrying A.a biofilm were randomly divided into seven groups (n = 6). The groups included: 1- a negative control group (without treatment), 2- a positive control group of Chlorhexidine 0.12 %, 3- a Curcumin (5 mg/ ml) group, 4- a Riboflavin (0.5 %) group, 5- an LED irradiation group (390-480 nm), 6- a photodynamic therapy with Curcumin group, and 7- a photodynamic therapy with Riboflavin group. Then, the implants were sonicated and the amount of CFU/mL of each sample was calculated. One-way ANOVA and Tamhane tests were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: The lowest mean number of colonies of A.a (CFU/ mL) were seen in the following groups, respectively: the positive control group of Chlorhexidine 0.12 %, the photodynamic therapy with Curcumin group, the photodynamic therapy with Riboflavin group, the Curcumin (5 mg/ ml) group, the Riboflavin (0.5 %) group, the LED radiation group, and the negative control group. The use of photodynamic therapy with Curcumin significantly reduced the number of colonies of A.a (CFU/ mL) in comparison with the photodynamic therapy with Riboflavin group (p = 0.004), the Riboflavin group (p = 0.045), the LED radiation group (p = 0.012), and the negative control group (p = 0.007). CONCLUSION: aPDT with Curcumin and LED can reduce A.a biofilm on implant surfaces and can be used as a safe and non-invasive disinfection method to reduce A.a biofilm on implant surfaces.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate ex vivo the efficacy of an amino acid buffered hypochlorite solution supplemented to surface debridement with air-powder abrasion in removing bacterial biofilm following open-flap decontamination of implants failed due to peri-implantitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was an ex vivo, single-blind, randomized, intra-subject investigation. Study population consisted of 20 subjects with at least three implants failed for peri-implantitis (in function for > 12 months and progressive bone loss exceeding 50%) to be explanted. For each patient, implants were randomly assigned to surface decontamination with sodium bicarbonate air-powder abrasion (test-group 1) or sodium bicarbonate air-powder abrasion supplemented by amino acid buffered hypochlorite solution (test-group 2) or untreated control group. Following open-flap surgery, untreated implants (control group) were explanted. Afterwards, test implants were decontaminated according to allocation and explanted. Microbiological analysis was expressed in colony-forming units (CFU/ml). RESULTS: A statistically significant difference in the concentrations of CFU/ml was found between implants of test-group 1 (63,018.18 ± 228,599.36) (p = 0.007) and implants of test-group 2 (260.00 ± 375.80) (p < 0.001) compared to untreated implants (control group) (86,846.15 ± 266,689.44). The concentration of CFU/ml on implant surfaces was lower in test-group 2 than in test-group 1, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: The additional application of amino acid buffered hypochlorite solution seemed to improve the effectiveness of implant surface decontamination with air-powder abrasion following open-flap surgery. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Lacking evidence on the most effective method for biofilm removal from contaminated implant surfaces, the present experimental study provides further information for clinicians and researchers.

The oral cavity is a unique complex ecosystem colonized with huge numbers of microorganism species. Oral cavities are closely associated with oral health and sequentially with systemic health. Many factors might cause the shift of composition of oral microbiota, thus leading to the dysbiosis of oral micro-environment and oral infectious diseases. Local therapies and dental hygiene procedures are the main kinds of treatment. Currently, oral drug delivery systems (DDS) have drawn great attention, and are considered as important adjuvant therapy for oral infectious diseases. DDS are devices that could transport and release the therapeutic drugs or bioactive agents to a certain site and a certain rate in vivo. They could significantly increase the therapeutic effect and reduce the side effect compared with traditional medicine. In the review, emerging recent applications of DDS in the treatment for oral infectious diseases have been summarized, including dental caries, periodontitis, peri-implantitis and oral candidiasis. Furthermore, oral stimuli-responsive DDS, also known as "smart" DDS, have been reported recently, which could react to oral environment and provide more accurate drug delivery or release. In this article, oral smart DDS have also been reviewed. The limits have been discussed, and the research potential demonstrates good prospects.

Background: Diode lasers have been used for implant decontamination. However, the use of initiated or noninitiated tips remains unevaluated to verify potential photothermal risks. Objective: To assess the photothermal effects of defocused-initiated versus noninitiated irradiation. Materials and methods: A dental implant (3.5 × 11 mm) was placed into an artificial bone, an infrabony defect was created to simulate a four-wall peri-implant defect. Irradiation was performed using pulsed diode lasers of 940, 975, and 980 nm. The laser tips were positioned parallel to the implant (maximum 2W pulsed mode). The implant was irradiated for 30 sec using noninitiated, cork-, and blue paper-initiated tips. Temperature differences were observed at the apical and coronal regions of the implant. The data were statistically evaluated and compared using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey tests. Results: The average temperature increase and the amount of time that it took to yield the critical temperature were comparable at the coronal level for the 940 and 975 nm diode lasers (p > 0.05). For the 980 nm laser, blue-initiated tip had the highest temperature increase (22.4°C), followed by cork (18.8°C) and noninitiated tip (17.3°C). The critical threshold at the coronal portion for the 980 nm laser was reached in 11.5, 8.79, and 6.46 sec for the blue paper-, cork-, and noninitiated tips, respectively. The 975 and 980 nm lasers had average temperature increases, comparable among the blue paper-, cork-, and noninitiated tips at the apical level (p > 0.05). Apically, for the 940 nm, the noninitiated tip had the highest temperature increase (5.57°C), followed by the cork- (4.96°C) and blue paper-initiated tip (4.54°C). Conclusions: The initiator does not affect the temperatures produced during implant decontamination although noninitiated diode lasers may overheat (within 30 sec) than initiated tips. There is minimal risk of overheating at the apical portion. It seems that the 940 nm diode is the safest of the evaluated laser systems.

Great possibilities for oral rehabilitation emerged as a result of scientific consolidation, as well as a large number of dental implant applications. Along with implants appeared diseases such as mucositis and peri-implantitis, requiring management through several strategies applied at different stages. Biofilm accumulation is associated with clinical signs manifest by both tooth and implant inflammation. With this in mind, regular and complete biofilm elimination becomes essential for disease prevention and host protection. Chemical control of biofilms, as an adjuvant to mechanical oral hygiene, is fully justified by its simplicity and efficacy proven by studies based on clinical evidence. The purpose of this review was to present a consensus regarding the importance of antimicrobial mouthrinse use as an auxiliary method in chemical peri-implant biofilm control. The active ingredients of the several available mouthrinses include bis-biguanide, essential oils, phenols, quaternary ammonium compounds, oxygenating compounds, chlorine derivatives, plant extracts, fluorides, antibiotics and antimicrobial agent combinations. It was concluded that there is strong clinical evidence that at least two mouthrinses have scientifically proven efficacy against different oral biofilms, i.e., chlorhexidine digluconate and essential oils; however, 0.12% chlorhexidine digluconate presents a number of unwanted side effects and should be prescribed with caution. Chemical agents seem beneficial in controlling peri-implant inflammation, although they require further investigation. We recommend a scientifically proven antiseptic, with significant short and long term efficacy and with no unwanted side effects, for the prevention and/or treatment of peri-implant disease.
